My house is a mess. There are boxes everywhere. Besides the girls bedrooms, the bathroom and toilet, there is not a room in the house where I did not store my china :-).
I started packing for the
Swan Market last weekend. I wrote about the market before, but perhaps you missed this post. The Swan Market is a
vintage, crafts and lifestyle market, comparable to Camden Market in London, which will be held at the
museum park in
Rotterdam. I will be there from
12.00 to 17.00 hours, sharing a stall with my friend Ilse, who owns the Etsy shop
Eigenhandig. I will be taking my vintage treasures with me, while Ilse sells her colourful crochet work. We are keeping our fingers crossed the weather will be fine. It was bitterly cold last year.......
I am looking forward to meet you! Hope I will recognise you :-)! If you are intent on buying something at the market, please keep in mind that most stalls don't have cash mashines. So you have to take cash money with you!
In between my preparations for the market, I baked a
Banana Date Cake with walnut & Honey glaze. It's truly delicious and perfect for an autumn tea! You can find the recipe on the
BBC Good Food website.
Unfortunately I don't have much time left for popping over to your blogs this week and say hello. I hope you won't mind too much. I will be back soon!
Love,

If you can't visit the market, but are interested in vintage china, please have a look at my
Facebook page
Madelief Vintage Tea Party.
Now and then I post some teacups and other floral finds.
