The weather has been FREEZING lately, and I especially hate the cold, and unfortunately spend a lot of time outside due to spending 3hrs a day commuting!
So it was wonderful Saturday morning to wake up to beautiful spring sunshine.
We had already planned to visit our local farmers market, which rotates around three nearby villages. This week it was at Kings Heath, which we have been to once before, so we got ready and headed out.

Our first stall was Bake Birmingham, who we have chatted to briefly on Twitter, and seen many pictures of their amazing cakes on Instagram! Steve and his partner are a really nice couple, and wow - these boys can bake. We were strict and limited ourselves to three cakes - Pecan Bundt, Red Velvet Bundt and a Cherry Creme Brulee cupcake, although they are so big they can easily be shared.
We noticed on Twitter shortly after that they had completely sold out half way through the markets opening hours!

We then wandered around the rest of the market after purchasing hot spiced apple juice, and bought vegetables to make soup, corn bread, peanut butter, vegetable samosas, and lots of cheeses including pesto cheese and ginger cheese.
We then wandered up to one of our favourite local cafes, Cherry Reds. Its usually very busy as there are only 6 or so tables, but we were lucky to get a nice spot, and had huge vegetarian breakfasts and tea - yummy!
L looking forward to breakfast |
