a little run out..........

to Petersham Nursery
(fast becoming the Ladies of Berko town's retreat).
It's a wonderful place full of inspiration.
There are plants (obv!), indian artifacts and
must-have cupboards
(my love of cupboards knows no bounds!)
thanks for a lovely day L&D

Happy St Dwynwen's day

on this the welsh valentines day...........

My choice of gifts would have to include a welsh love spoon 
by the super talented Buddug Wyn Humphreys.  
I just love her work.

TFI....friday!

Well what a week!
Fluffy youngest had braces fitted last week.  What a palaver!
She has a mouth full of ulcers, is not eating properly  
(she's going to fall down the gap in the floorboards) 
and is thoroughly, massively, hugely miserable.
Large-haired eldest had a hospital consultation to discuss
his allergy blood test results.
She took a deep breath and said he is NEVER to eat nuts!
(average person tests 0.25 allergic to hazelnuts.....he tested a MASSIVE 45.9)
He's gutted as he's never going to have a nutella-fest ever again!

Dr's appointment for me today......whoop whoop!

x  Happy friday lovely peeps (let's hope it doesn't rain)  x

a nice cup of tea.........

if it's good enough for Sherlock to drink out of 
then it's good enough for me!
(i'd already 'pinned' this beautiful tea set, then I spotted Sherlock 
serving Moriarty his tea in one on this week's episode)

lovely packaging

as a packaging designer I collect, mr cheese prefers the word 'hoard', all manner of paper loveliness. 
These beauties were bought in Spain a few years ago........ 
the chocolate has long gone!
I just love the hand-written type.

THIRTEEN!

Arghhhhhhhh!
We have shown him clips of Harry Enfield's 'Kevin' and warned him that on no account must he come to live with us.
Just got to wrap a few birthday presents and brace myself for a room full of teenage boys and an xbox

project 366

As if I didn't have enough deadlines and jobs to do,
I thought I'd sign up to Develop 2012 
(a photography project to document everyday through a lens for 366 days).
Pop over to the flickr group pool and see the 
days click by in beautiful images.

This was my day 1 - Beautiful Ivy
