Jam Jar

Since I saw these snaps from wikstenmade, I have thought alot about using jam jars as cups. Then yesterday, in the Evening Standard it was written about as a trend! We're having a bbq this weekend, and we're all bringing something so one idea is cocktails in jam jars. Or beetroot cake as per here, seeds and stitches which was mentioned in the article!

Tea or Cocktail

My pipe dream - as I'm sure I've mentioned before - is to have a little tea and cake shop with creative bits and pieces on the side. My new friend Emma at work has a similar one, maybe it's something to do our creativity needing more than design on CAD.

I got reading David Gandy's blog following an interview in Stella, and he mentioned this place in North London called Drink, Shop & Do. You can drink tea or cocktails, eat cakes or go to a knit or pumpkin carving evening that they have each week. It sounds right up my street - I must pay a visit! (Plus I would not be disappointed if we bumped into Mr Gandy there!)
