This has me smiling broadly. Fond memories of May Day in Oxford. Was showing Vera the choir on Youtube. Love the narrative thread culminating with your girls on set and aghast! X
I love this!!! I had no idea about the sword wielding fertility cake when I watched the May procession however many years ago it was. I definitely wouldn't have eaten a morsel of that cake then - and I'm even more certain that a crumb wouldn't pass my lips now! You are a very brave woman Antonia.... hopefully it will just be a very very lucky year for you rather than any more bundles of joy! Xx ps looking forward to the next foodie escapade
Thanks Jo!! I'm very much hoping for luck over sproglet.. it really would be some kind of catastrophe if it was the latter... Glad you enjoyed this piece xxx Sally lives your way in Brighton should you hear of anyone requiring fertility cupcakes for weddings!

I'd never heard of this tradition until I read your post. Thank you for telling us about it.
