Some things that come through the door you can live without but a large golden pat of butter from @fenfarmdairy isn’t one of them. Off to buy some crumpets. (Now acquired - see Stories!) . . . #butter #dairy #rawmilk #fenfarmdairy #bungay #suffolk #sampleI may be biased (of course I am!) but I’m totally in love with the new work my stepson @flynvibert is sharing in his latest series 25 days of Christmas. He creates these images at home in his apartment in Berlin - there’s no digital manipulation. Give him a follow! . . . #photography #art #artistsoninstagram #beauty #red #creative #photoart #photoartist #berlin #proud #regramHard day at the computerface today so here’s a cute picture from @padstowxmas last weekend. Nothing to do with food or booze for once. . . . #dachshund #dachshundsofinstagram #dogsofinstagram #cutedogsHow long is it since I had an apple strudel? Answer: too long. Such a delicious way to round off a great meal cooked by the young chefs @squarefoodfoundation. Not the best photo I know but a marvellous project. . . . #apple #strudel #applestrudel #dessert #pastry #squarefoodfoundation #bristol Follow on Instagram
