Now and again it is good to have some treats. Every few months my littlest and I head down to Glasgow's west end for ice cream and good, good coffee at Nardinis. Little booths where you can sit and sip and slurp, childhood memories for me from the Largs Nardinis and afterwards a wee trip to the shops. This time as well as a toy shop trip (they do great 'lucky dips' at 50p a time- perfect for an inexpensive treat for little ones) we went to my favourite vintage dress shop 'Vintage Guru'. It was a window on times to come, she clip clopped around in the most fabulous gold 60's sling backs whilst I tried on Easter dresses. The shoes were too small for me but we bought the bunny brooch to 'share '. Such good times, and more to come, of that I'm sure. Jxxxxx
Treat days are the best. I like to have some one on one time with my girl when I can - I love the idea of "sharing" jewellery with her! x
ReplyDeleteThanks Gillian- I am so looking forward to my wee one discovering my vintage dresses in the future! Jxx
DeleteI was up in Glasgow visiting my daughter earlier this week but resisted the temptation to pop into Nardinis. Although I did succumb to the nostalgia of the University Cafe further down the road.
ReplyDeleteHello! You should totally go to Nardinis as it is so much cheaper than I remember! It's really friendly too. We should get a cuppa there! Jx
DeleteTreat days are lovely. There is something very nice about you giving the wee one a new version of your memories. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you my dear, you always see such a perceptive angle on things. Hugs and we need to meet soon, Jo xx
