A Sunday in Edinburgh

Wondering through the nice bit of town to get to Stockbridge Market, still slightly dreaming. Warming up in an oak floored with a brunch of toasted banana bread and a flat white. Wondering through the Sunday market, with farmers, butchers and bakers selling their wares. Taking a scenic walk along the waters of leith, getting a little lost as the mud scuffs build up on my shoes. 


Wondering through Modern art galleries in the early afternoon to escape the rain, losing my gaze in constructivist and surrealist masterpieces. Finally winding down with a pint in pub and losing track of time on Rose Street


And finally a lovely BYOB dinner with my best Edinburgh-living lass!

A September Sunday in East London


Breakfast; Smashed avocado and feta/ truffled mushrooms and parmasan with poached eggs on sourdough. Thank you Hackney Bureau (on Mare street). Plus we managed to nab a seat outside of this great busy little joint to make the most of the September sun! 

Morning activity; walk along the canal to Columbia Flower Market, breaking the browsing for a quick coffee and portuguese custard tart in a cute little courtyard. 

Social Stop; dropping by The Owl and Pussycat  pub (near Commercial road) for an early afternoon pint and catch up with friends

Afternoon Adventure; scrambling through the flocking crowds of Brick Lane Market, on the search for some bargain buys. (Will be posting photos of my decked out letter press tray in posts to come!) 

Top Sunday all in all, even if super typically east London. Though worth making the most of it as it will the the last one I will have for a while!
