Absolutely GORGEOUS veg from @formerly_birch’s allotment including Jerusalem artichokes, squash, chard and celery leaf. Plus cider and homemade cider vinegar. If you’re anywhere near #templemeads station in the next hour or so it’s worth braving this utterly shitty weather for. (They’re at @hartsbakery Xmas market). . . . #veg #vegetables #greens #chard #jerusalemartichokes #cider #applecidervinegar #vinegar #bristolCheck out the hashtag #100yearswomensvoting to see a fantastic selection of images celebrating this historic event. This shot of Birmingham New Street station comes from @alphaworksb1 #regram. . . . #women #womenempowerment #womensrights #womensvote #publicart #birminghamSegovian suckling pig @sabor_ldn which feels like a little bit of Spain in the heart of London. Extraordinarily delicate sweet meat and crisp skin + exemplary chips. Also an amazing fish stew with skate and hard boiled eggs. First time I’ve been to the asador upstairs - feels like the best kind of home cooking @nieves_barragan1 @gemmabelleats. Lovely pre-Christmas treat. #guest. . . . #pork #sucklingpig #spanishfood #sabor #london #nievesbarraganSome 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 #sample Follow on Instagram
