We also wandered a lot in the lovely spring sunshine. A perfect way to spend a weekend.

I love their old fashioned light fittings, stained glass, mirrors and mis matched china.

They have all kinds of delicious treats but I was there for the macarons really. It reminded me that I must try harder to get them right!

I can’t sing their praises highly enough! It makes me sad that people still go to nero or starbucks when smaller, better places like this are nearby.

I had the most amazing macarons with my delicious tea and the shop itself is gorgeous.

They also have branches on berwick st and in camden lock market. Go visit!

So whilst I am sad to see the end of the summer, I can’t bring myself to be sorry that it’s getting colder now. Yesterday, I had a celebratory day out and chose a few of my favourite things to do.

1. Go for afternoon tea at Bea’s of Bloomsbury

This is an amazing place to have tea. It’s wonderfully yummy and all freshly made in their own open plan kitchen.

Whilst eating your afternoon tea, you can watch them prepare the most amazing cupcakes, cakes and treats. I’m kinda sorry to say that it beats the Hummingbird hands down for freshness and range of cakes.

2. Feed the ducks in Regent’s Park

Take some bread and feed the moorhens, coots, ducks, yellow eyed black ducks, black swans… and pigeons/seagulls. They are all equally appreciative.

3. Visit the rose garden in Regent’s Park

Walk round all the roses. Annoy whoever you are with by smelling lots of them. Take some photos and mourn the fact that you are not green fingered enough to keep any plant alive, let alone a garden.

4. Walk along Regent’s Canal from London Zoo to Camden

And salivate with envy at the amazing Georgian town houses that back on to the canal and wish you were born wealthy.

5. Repair to the lockside Wetherspoons

Console yourself with a white wine spritzer.

Anyone who lives in London might have spotted these elephants popping up in various public spaces in the centre of town.

They have been created by more than 250 artists and will be auctioned off at the end of their stay to raise money for the endangered Asian Elephants. The project has been organised by Elephant family.

Hit the Elephant Parade website to get a map and go visit them all! They will be out on the streets until the end of June.
