Love food festival!

Just got back from the beautiful Cornwall yesterday. Lovely beach, Lovely art and Lovely food.


There was a shop named "paint a pot" in St. Ives and here is how my mug looked finished without being glazed! Now all I need to do is wait for the post to arrive in London to use my cupcake double-handled mug. 



The LOVE FOOD FESTIVAL in Bristol I would say was really successful. It was just next to Bristol Temple Meads station inside the old passenger shed. The venue was made into a place that people can hold events and enjoy the atmosphere.




There was even a cookery school showing you how to deal with fresh food and eat properly. Not only to share the joy of making food but also educating about food waste and food recycling. 


We love food, we love book and we love children.  



As a Taiwanese, it is easy and commonplace for me to get my food from local shops. There are more interactions and friendships involved when you are buying food ingredients from local farmers. Here in England I always see repeating shops and supermarkets all over the place. They are clean and simple, but can cause a lot of problems. As the local shops close due to imposible competition, the prices are dominated by big companies. 


Today I bought a bunch of freshly grown carrots, 2 bunches of spring onions, 1 pack of strawberries and 1 basket of mushrooms for only £5! And they are all grown in England by the hands of lovely sunshine farmers!




There is another big Love Food Festival being held on 29th April at Dyrham Park near Chippenham and it will be Free Entry!
Please go and support small farms and local food!
