To The Farmers Market We Went

Romy & I spent our Sunday with my sister & brother-in-law at the farmers markets in Newcastle. It has been a while since our last visit, and Romy is a fan of longer trips in the car and is an even bigger fan of her favourite aunty and uncle, so it was a successful day all round. Allan wore Romy in the Baby Bjorn for the first time like a proud uncle, it was really sweet and Romy definitely enjoyed it! She loves people watching, and being out and about in the sun. I didn't buy a lot of fresh produce today because Luke & I haven't planned our meals for the week, but I did bring home some kale, chillies, broccoli and  some asparagus we put on our pizzas tonight. I'm definitely going to be more prepared for next visit to the farmers market! These types of Sundays are my favourite.

Saturday Morning Markets

Today Luke, Romy, my Mum & I all went to the markets. These markets were the monthly ones and were much, much bigger than the fortnightly ones held here. Now that I no longer work every Saturday I can do things like go to the markets, and out for breakfast on a weekend like a regular weekenders. Luke started work much later than usual today, so we were able to put a good couple of hours in browsing all of the local craft, baked treats, and vintage clothes. I bought a handmade delicious smelling soy vanilla candle poured into a glass teacup, a blueberry cheesecake macaroon (how cute is this macaroon baking lady we met today!) and some smoked garlic bulbs. While we were browsing we came across a brilliant local photographer that creates the most magical fantasy family photographs, and we booked a session! We have been meaning to get photos taken of Romy but haven't really planned it and we keep putting it at the bottom of our to-do-list. And it was just as well, otherwise we would not have booked our upcoming session. I cannot wait to share more about it!
