I visited the most gorgeous cafe the other day. You know the one, with tea served on a cup and saucer, scones arranged in a birdcage like hanging basket and candles carefully placed onto the vintage desks fashioned into coffee tables. The cafe itself was tiny, but the atmosphere was friendly and buzzing. I managed to take a few pictures, of course.
Typically I ordered a coffee but then got severe tea envy when I saw what cups the tea was served in. I spent most of my time there eyeing up the mug/cup every drink was served in so I can choose the nicest one next time. I didn't manage to get a picture of the birdcage. It was hanging right next to the people who were working there and I was too shy to go up and get a proper picture.
I also have some quick news as to what you can expect on my blog during the next couple of weeks. I will be reviewing the hair Elasticizer and the Illamasqua Freak perfume that I received in my November's Glossy Box (you can see the first impressions review here). I will also be posting some Christmas inspired recipes as I know a lot of you have expressed an interest in them. Expect to be using lots of cinnamon and cranberry, those are my all time 'Christmas flavours'. I also added a Formspring box to my left sidebar. Feel free to ask me any questions personal (obviously I wont answer any question, but I will try my best to answer most), and also any questions blog or blogging related. I was thinking of maybe making a video and answering the questions that way, what do you think? At the moment I have been 'testing' the box and sending questions to myself, how embarrassing haha! If you have any other questions and want a quicker or more personal response, feel free to send me an e-mail.
Hope you're all having a nice monday.

I was thinking the same thing! V-LOG would be so fun right?
ReplyDeleteThe cafe sounds lovely. I think it'd be great if you did a video. It's always interesting to see and hear a blogger properly rather than just words.
ReplyDeleteI've toyed with the idea of doing it myself but I don't know what I'd do the video about really!

That place looks so cute, inviting little café.. There was this similar one in my home town, but they ended business after summer. So sad, it was my favourite place to sit, relax and chat with a girlfriend with a cup of coffee, or at summer time we enjoyed nice glass of ice tea -- the best kind I have ever had.

a video would be fun, but it's your blog do what you want. if you had tea envy, why didn't you order the tea too? the glutinous american girl asked. :)
ReplyDelete@ Teddi I would have ordered tea but I was meeting my boyfriend inbetween his lessons and he didn't have much time. After he left I went somewhere else as the cafe started to get busy :) xo
