I’ve been having some fun with stop-motion videos, 2 little mice and some delicious Somerset produced foodie gifts, all under £20. You can read on to discover my Secret Santa suggestions and to see the accompanying videos, follow me on The Tale of a Teaspoon.
Looking back at 2021, I realise my eating out habits in and around Frome have not been the healthiest! Lockdowns, babies and being new to town has meant when I have been able to eat out it needs to be comforting, fairly fast food and in an environment suitable for a buggy and the messy muncher that comes with it.

This was quite a contrast to our relaxed life in Bali or previous few days in the sleepy city of Guilin!
