Maison d'être

Things have been a teensy bit stressful looking for an apartment again, but we did find one we like a lot (in London, that is! I know it's been a little confusing, but the timing for Paris did not work out, so we're back in London to stay). Right now we're in Islington, just until we can get into our new place, which is great. It's home to one of my favorite antique markets, the Camden Passage Market. There are also a number of independent shops and restaurants. One place I love, which my husband discovered, is Maison d'être. Their coffee is great, and the few things I've eaten there were great too. It's very cosy, and I love the way it's decorated--with mis-matched plates and cups, tables and chairs, and with fresh flowers on all the tables. I'm hoping to go there again this weekend.
Check their web site for more info. It's definitely worth a visit if you're in the area!

I had a cute date.
