Out and About with Martha!

On Friday my friend and I took Martha May out on her first official outing....





If you don't know what I'm talking about - Martha May is the gorgeous bag sitting on my lap which I was lucky enough to win from the lovely and generous Judith @ Rags to Bags.  Yes she made it herself clever, clever girl that she is!  


Here we are sitting outside - yes outside in January !  - and it was so sunny I was screwing up my eyes!  Ok I did keep my coat on but we enjoyed our tea!

And Martha enjoyed her bit of sunbathing!


 

We also enjoyed our lunch....


Our cake with more tea....

-

 And on the way home we diverted briefly into Tesco - yes, not sure Martha was so pleased with this venue....but I got the chance to test out her capaciousness and I have to say she easily swallowed some strawberry strings and chocolate covered doughnuts - requisites for my daughter's sleepover...






And when I looked at my photos I caught this lady through the window!







Bag envy if ever I saw it - could be your next customer Judith!  And if you like this bag you will love this - Judith's latest makes!

    Ha! Bag envy! It's so clear. Well, Martha is looking fabulous. She really goes well with the table cloth and the little green S&P shakers. So glad you had a great day out together ;)

    You look so beautifully coordinated. Your new bag is the perfect combination for your coat.

    I'm glad that you, Martha May and your other friend had a lovely outing for lunch, walk and tea!! Looks like she passed the test with flying colors!! Enjoy it/[her?] Your post is v. funny! Weather looks great! We've just been hit with our first cold snap (all week) and even a couple inches of snow last night-- but not enough for a school delay this am-- warmer weather coming in, will switch to rain here. The photo on the bridge is lovely-- and it looks like you were able to eat outside!!

    Martha is so well behaved when she is out and about! Looks like the two of you had a lovely day. The woman in the window definitely was eyeing Martha....be very careful!

    Well you both look like you had a jolly good day out, even if you did reduce her to going to Tesco rather than Fortnum and Masons... ;o)

    Bet that woman is looking at a rude message you had pinned to the other side of the bag that we can't see!
