bloggers in soho!

The second half of my bloggy date with Raquel was fun, blessed with setting sunshine, and well, rather funny. I hadn't been to teh touristy Central London locations yet since I arrived, and my usual routine is so different that it was a bit surrealistic being in Soho and Trafalgar Square again. To add bloggy stereotypes to tourist stereotypes, we also passed by the Hummingbird Bakery in Soho, which I think is a bit renowned for fashion blogger meet-ups. I'm actually not so fond of cupcakes (I don't know why, since I like cake well enough), but neither of us could pass up the red velvet ones. We got take-away and sat eating them in Trafalgar Square and then ran around being even bigger tourists until it got dark.

I'm definitely hoping I get the chance to hang out with Raquel again!

  9. yay, fun! i don't really like cupcakes, either! what's the big deal? they're too hard to eat and they just taste like cake (which i do love, so maybe it's just a proportion thing). i like to eat my frosted treats with a fork, thank you very much!

    ohhhhh elderly gentlemen and their entirely inappropriate remarks...

  22. Blogger meet-ups are soo fun and cool! Though my friends, those in the know, are supportive, they don't exactly relate to the whole blogging thing!
