Teatime Treats and Cream Teas

Cake is very beneficial and for me nostalgic.

After school in the 70s usually meant watching Grange Hill, Blue Peter or Crackerjack with a piece of my mum’s chocolate sponge and a glass of fluorescent orange squash.  Cake still features pretty near the top of my essential food items in life (I’ll always choose cake over a biscuit), so there was no way I could write a blog without sharing my cake stop recommendations . 

Both my girls are a dab hand at making cakes at home, but there’s something decadent about drooling over the inevitable choice of cakes presented at a nice café, and after a nice walk it’s well deserved!  When I do a new walk or activity I’ll try to include these ideas or I’ll give options for a pit stop based recommendations.
