Half term






It's half-term this week. It seems such a long time since Christmas school holidays. Scott's mum is with us for  2 weeks - aka "Nana on the plane". The day she arrived, Sam asked every 5 minutes when would she be here.

My blanket is growing, slowly and so is my yarn and fabric stash. My buttons on the other hand keep mysteriously disappearing....

Nigella's chocolate mouse cake...yum :)

  1. Love the bright colours in these photos. Your blanket seems to be coming along nicely. As is your stash of yarn and fabric (hello, I'm jealous!). Enjoy your time off with your kiddos lady!

    ps: I like your new blog layout too. It's nice to see your pretty face up there. Even if it's only half of it :)

  10. Hello - I've just discovered your blog - what a treat! I've been harbouring desires to live in France for years so will live vicariously through your blog. Lush blanket and gorgeous photos (love that plate in the last one!). Gillian x
