Love vintage: Wanstead vintage fashion and brocante fair: Saturday 4 September

These fairs run every three months and are very popular in this lovely london suburban area. There are over 30 stalls, offering a wide range of vintage goodies from shoes to furniture, from bags to haberdashery from Renee that have all been used on various productions for TV, Film and theatre including the more recent Absolutely Fabulous, Pirates of the Caribbean, and Evita. Woah! Just name it and you'll find it there. Yes, even yummy French Made cakes and bakes for the second time in a row. At last event, my quiches were a success so I was asked to bake some again as well as some traditional British cakes that they would serve on exclusive mismatched vintage china. 


That was some challenge but in a couple of days, I happily, proudly managed to produce a few generous eight sliced cakes (Victoria Sponge, Coffee and walnut, Chocolate fudge and Lemon drizzle) and some puff pastry quiches (Lorraine, Tuna and black olive, Emmental and Cumin seeds and bien sur, my old time favourite: Goats' cheese, tomato and Herbes de Provence). Ta daaaaa!
