Breakfast Shows, Nail Art & 3.5 kg of Butter

At last, I've arrived in Somerset! The sun is shining, the oven has been going none stop and we are all gathering as the days become single digits ahead of our stall in the Green Fields!

First thing was certainly first! Our stall sister Teresa got us a fabulous shout out from none other than BBC 2 Radio's very own Chris Evans on his Breakfast Show! We were DELIGHTED to be mentioned - especially as Teresa's efforts were beyond mammoth with 19 bakes currently having residence in her village hall's freezer!

Teresa's baking effort - look at those labels!

Fast forward a few hours (and a few hundred miles), later and I land in Somerset JUST in time to join fellow WI Glasto Cakes stall sisters, Katie, Vicci, Margaret and Lucy at the fabulous Feel Better Days nail bar and beauty spot! We've all had tea and cake themed nail art applied and we are LOVING our new decals!

Vicci getting Glasto cakes nailed!
Vicci's end result! With a cake stand to boot!
WI teapot thumbs! YEAH!
Suffragettes teapot thumb!
 I went for a Suffragette themed banner across my cuticles with tea pots and cups on my pinky and thumbs - FABULOUS work, indeed!

…..and what day is complete without having a loving fellow village dweller donating 3.5 kg of butter to our Glastonbury baking effort?!

3.5 kg of butter as present from Alan Scott, Puriton Party in the Park, to help with the Glasto baking effort!
What a fabulous surprise it was to come home to following such a whirlwind of a day - delightful!

More soon darlings - 8 days and counting!
