I write this in the hope that within a few weeks all the blossom will be out, the sun will be shining and all the lakes that shouldn’t be there have drained away. I love the change of seasons but it has been a hard winter outside with the animals and I am looking forward […]
Following on from the British Street Foods Awards in Dalston, Bessie enjoyed some other great food events. If you haven’t been to the Broadstairs Food Festival or Brogdale Apple Festival I urge you to do so – such great traders offering such a wonderful variety of food. I have been involved with Broadstairs Food Festival […]
As everyone probably knows, I just love a wedding! This wedding was no exception and I had such a lovely day with Lisa, Scott and their wonderful guests at Salmestone Grange. They were all such fun and the day so very personal to them. Here are just a few pictures that capture their day:
Well, what a way to end a first year of trading- Bessie was invited to attend the British Street Food Awards (No, wait! It was the European Street Food Awards) at Dalston Yard, London. Searching for the finest Kent ingredients I began planning for Bessie’s adventure to the City. I was so lucky to have […]
It was a whole year ago when Bessie was asked to be at the wedding of Philippa and Lee whilst I was at my first wedding fayre at the very beautiful Salmestone Grange in Margate. A year on and I was so excited to set Bessie up right at the entrance. It’s such an honour to be […]

My key reasons for participating in the event were to support them in […]
At the beginning of August, Bessie attended the most fabulous 40’s / 50’s event at the Farrier’s Arms in Mersham, Kent. The previous weekend we were at the same venue for a music, beer and cider event – both very happy weekends. Classic cars, steam engines, aerobatics, singing, dancing, stalls, food – you name it […]
When I was approached by Alex of Bijou Brides to see if Bessie would travel to Essex I was delighted to find it was a date I could attend. The Indian Bride and English Groom wanted a fusion of Indian culture and traditional English celebrations for their wedding. The venue was a most beautiful country […]
Attending events at Brogdale Farm in Faversham is always a treat. There is an abundance of local, fresh produce and local crafters and artisan producers. Well, the Cherry Festival was no different – apart from the fact that there were some crazy people about! Must be the first time I had been asked for tea […]
Following a brief telephone call back in December 2012, Bessie was selected to feature in the new Rightmove TV commercial. It was a frosty day travelling to North London for the shoot and what an amazing location! Bessie was rolled into position with care and precision onto the edge of a golf course – ensuring she […]
