B R U N C H Everyone is encouraged to check out Mrs Deli’s muffins . . . #sundayvibes #sundaybrunch #mrandmrsdeli #makeyourmoment #gatherandfeast #feastsandfables #foodstories #fooddrinkwales
R E F L E C T I O N S It’s been a week of sharing plans, noting changes, letting folk know, managing change, reflecting on the journey and casting eyes forward to new horizons . . . #makeyourmoment #gatherandfeast #highstreet #smallbusinessowner #mrandmrsdeli
S H A R I N G You COULD share Mrs Deli’s luxurious Chocolate Raspberry Brownie ... or, you could use the spare forks to keep cake rustlers away. Made for sharing ... but not mandatory . . . #makeyourmoment #homemadecake #mrandmrsdeli #gatherandfeast #fridayvibes
S U R P R I S E S There’s a thing when you run a small high street business that seems to connect with folk. The lovely people surprise you with things. Things they’ve made. Flowers they’ve grown. Fruit they’ve nurtured. Gluts of vegetables. Labours of love. Shared with us. We’re totally blown away every time it happens. So Jane and David live in Yorkshire. They travel and dine well. They support us through their love of @inshriach gin. Notwithstanding our ongoing struggle to understand the concept of ‘cork back in the bottle’, David very kindly made these beauties for us . . . #makeyourmoment #smallbusinessowner #mrandmrsdeli #highstreetlife #foodstories
V A R I A T I O N Mrs Deli is always shaking it up with the cakes. The wonderful @honeyandco provided the inspiration for her gluten free frangipane cakes with their Cherry Pistachio recipe. Today it’s all about the Peach, Vanilla and Fennel Seed . . . #makeyourmoment #mrandmrsdeli #homemadecake #glutenfree #gatherandfeast #sweettreat
G O O D L I F E Sometimes you have to push against the tide to make your good life. Sometimes, you have to do the least obvious thing. Occasionally, you go completely counterintuitive. Every year we shut our shop for a few days when it is at its busiest. We close the door, take no takings, sell no stuff. Counterintuitive. We head to @goodlifeexperience We do it for ourselves. For our wellbeing. To hang out with the inspirational folk living their good lives. People we admire and respect for the way they do things and the skills they have and share. Folk like @theboyfrost whose poster is on our deli wall as a daily reminder to keep the focus on our good life . . . #makeyourmoment #mrandmrsdeli #livingourgoodlife #gatherandfeast #feastsandfables #foodstories
N E W D I S C O V E R Y We love it when people we respect suggest that we connect with folk they respect because they have produce that tastes amazing and which is produced with passion. It’s that combination of great tastes and food stories that connects us. So, thanks @nicshayler ... and looking forward to meeting @twofieldszakros at @goodlifeexperience in a few weeks . . . #makeyourmoment #foodstories #greattastes #oliveoil #crete #mrandmrsdeli
I N T E N T I O N S Every week we put together a newsletter. For over two years now. Every week. Sundays. 6pm sharp. It’s a slow conversation with folk who make time to dip into the links we share, the stories we tell and the people we are lucky to hang out with. It’s a wish list too. Folk we want to work with. Creatives we admire. Lives well lived. Actions and words that inspire us to do and say things. This week’s newsletter is a statement of intent. It is a road map. A trail of breadcrumbs to the direction we’re taking with our side project @feastsandfables We like this sort of slow conversation. A gentle meander. If you’ve never popped in for a look, this week’s might just be the one. Might be worth following that trail of breadcrumbs to the link in our profile . . . #makeyourmoment #newsletter #gatherandfeast #mrandmrsdeli #sideproject
C U R A T O R S This is the wall which celebrates nearly four years as “curators of great tastes”. This wall is a celebration of people, and craft, endeavour and friendship. The makers like @foragersgin @hafodcheese @radnorpreserves @halenmon @nomnomcymru ... our super talented friend @rocksaltphoto who swapped her photography skills for a gin-soaked hamper ... the gorgeous @stefloynes GP by day, calligraphy super hero by night ... this wall reminds us we are storytellers not shopkeepers. It reminds us that our job is to shout out about the talented folk. Our role is to curate the collection of great tastes and food stories and gather folk to share them with. We’re planning a whole lot more of that over @feastsandfables if you fancy glancing in . . . #makeyourmoment #greattastes #foodstories #feastsandfables
