Every year graduate students from art colleges around Britain exhibit their collections in London. The event in question is New Designers where we flock in the hope of having our work seen by somebody in the industry and *eek* being offered a job!
A venture on the expensive side of expensive, Chloe and I decided to get together and fundraise ourselves some money. Current target: £400. That covers the cost of our stand in the Design Centre alone. After that I think we'll be ringing on friend's doorbells looking for a couch to crash on for the week.

During the summer we had splendid success selling salad boxes. But now the days are colder and the students newer, we thought a bake sale was in order. Theme? OATS!!!


Calling our day 'oatily delicious' we stood outside the main University of Edinburgh Library with an array of sweet and savoury bakes, each containing that one key ingredient.... oats!

For the savoury bakes we prepared small stacks of oatcakes, with a choice between spinach, pumpkin seeds or cracked black pepper. Sold as a set with a nice British apple and a wedge of either Danish blue or Gouda cheese, they were a perfect snack.


Over on the sweet side we had - Ginger and Dark Chocolate Cookies - Chewy Apple Cookies - Peanut Butter and Banana Flapjack - Banana Bread - Raisin and Pumpkin Seed Flapjack- Jars of Granola.  Many credits are due to DeliciouslyElla for her wonderful vegan recipes, thank you.
