Our May coffee morning

An East End adventure – our May coffee morning at Saffi

"A very enjoyable meet up.  For some it was an interesting and possibly challenging opportunity to explore a different part of our patch – using the DLR! The cafe was spacious and had a good range of goods. The staff were very helpful and welcoming.

The usual good chat – how to combat textile moths with cinnamon balls and sticky triangles (and where to get them). Updates on the outdoor swimming venues. News from the allotments and stories of joy and alarm, from produce loved – rhubarb, or not – kale. Clare gave an excellent recipe for the latter, which can be found here. Exhibitions of quilts [Janet, in London Quilters Quilts at the Library until 3 July] and Lydia's fruit and veg sketches [in her show Hello, Petal, at Springfield Park Café until 11 June] connected to this thread. We shared the current advice on health and safety re: the current enormous strawberries. The warning is that they are too big to go all in your mouth at once!  Take care...

And so much more..."
