LOST News - August

I hope you are staying warm! This winter is proving to be a chilly one. August is such a beautiful month - these foggy days have been like a winter wonderland. 

It has been a tough few months though: In and out of lockdowns, periods of feeling disconnected and disjointed. It is lovely to be here at my desktop again, typing away and contributing to the community buzz.

Whilst in my own little bubble, I have been finding lots of joy in picking herbs and flowers from my garden. What pleasure it is to grow, cook and enjoy food with others. Ahh, the wonders of community! How I have missed you all!

Now, let me share our adventures...

Mahmood spoke with Andrew McSweeney and Brett Ellenport from Gathering Men, a beautiful initiative in supporting men's mental health. A topic to honour.

Matt Donnelly and Jo Corrigan from Mushrooms Anonymous spoke about their journey from the big smoke into the world of fungi. Next, Mahmood met the whole family at When Polly Met Murphy, the newest kids on the block making ourhomes beautiful and green! Lastly Mahmood visited Chelsea Hing and entered into her world of design and creativty. 

Larissa was treated to a delicious welome at Duck Duck Goose & Larder by partner team Lynise Woodgate and Troy Pannell.

Michael enjoyed a warm cup of spiced goodness whilst listening to the story of Calmer Sutra Chai with owner, Caitlin West. Funnily enough, I am currently sipping on their vegan chai blend right now!

Anthony dived into the depths that we all crave in winter... Hibernation.

I hope you are rugged up, all cosy and warm, maybe also with a chai in hand!  It's now time to get Lost...
