I have posted about my OAP trips before and yesterday Mark and I took another trip to the picturesque Cotswold town of Stow-on-the-Wold, home of cream teas and antique shops... a match made in heaven! I mean what could be nicer than soaking up the sunshine with a cream tea?!

| Could you ask for a cooler toast rack?! |
Seriously, if you are ever in either Stow or Burford, please go to Huffkins. It is the most divine bakery and the food is divine! Mark and I shared the club sandwich and a chocolate and almond gateau... I haven't had such a nice sandwich in a long time!
I could quite happily live in a cute Cotswold stone cottage with a painted door...maybe I could retire here? It was such a lovely day and I picked up a couple of bits and pieces from the charity shops to show you which I am excited about :) This trip came at the perfect time, I have missed Mark so much since I have moved back home [yes, I am pathetic!] so spending a day as OAPs was just lovely!
Do you like cream teas and charity shops? How do you like to unwind?

That slice of cake looks divine. Sold. :) xxx
that scone, oh god. WANT ONE!
That scone looks AMAZING! I had afternoon tea at a castle a while ago and the scones looked that good there too! I love Stow-on-the-Wold too, went there back when the weather was really cold, and just couldn't be bothered to get my camera out because my fingers were frozen! Glad you had a good time. xxx
That is one damn fine looking scone!
I took one look at those photos of cake and my stomach started rumbling... I think I might have to go do some baking tonight. Glad you and Mark had such a great day together, you guys are adorable xo
Yum that sandwiche does look scrumptious!!!Glad you had fun xxx
I am a cream tea fan. For sure. I am jealous of your OAP trips, epicccccc.
scones and charity shops= a Gemma dream!!
I love Hay on Wye and Hereford for OAP trips
xx
Looks like you had a divine day! x
OAP trips are the best, nothing beats sharing a pot of tea and a cake in a tea shop! Especially somewhere as pretty as the Cotswolds.
amazing food!!
love your photos!!!
;-)
I want to live here!! I love small twons, and houses with painted doors.
i love days out like this! i'm such a tea and cake kinda girl :) xx
cream teas and charity shops sounds like my perfect kinda day! x
OMG--the cake! Soo hungry now. Looks like you had such a fun time!
Aaah, what a lovely day. Just looking at the pictures makes me smile.
Loving your OAP in style and soooo not pathetic to be missing someone. I did a lot of missing when at uni and now I'm home I get the feeling of being spoiled, being able to see The Guy regularly.
This looks like such an adorable place to go visit! I love scones with cream and jam SO MUCH. Like an actual obsession, I blame it on my mother, she's obsessed as it's 'so english' (she's french) x x x
