I haven’t tended the garden for nearly a month…and now we’re entering a heat wave (yay!) so it’s time to get a wriggle on with the jobs and a few more sowings….just about in time…..I hope!

Now that my bookcases are built it’s time to get on with some more nesting…..and a project that has been waiting 30 years!

I had a wonderful weekend away with my friend Kate who has just moved house. Today I’m making some bunting for her as a housewarming gift and recounting the lovely weekend including a gorgeous flea market find for me (and one for her) and some fabulous food. One of the recipes came from a book I have just borrowed from my library so I’ll be making it with you soon.

I’ve been a bit quiet on-line for the last couple of weeks because I had a rather horrible health scare. I hope by sharing it will be reassuring and helpful for other folk.

At last! One of the bigger jobs can be ticked off the ‘to-do’ list. The bookcases have been built….now they need painting. Plus, how I budgeted for them.

I’ve been spinning a lot of plates for the last couple of weeks so I’m having a bit of a cleaning and sorting day……plus a catch-up about replacing my phone….and a silly injury!

Today marks nine years since my last pay cheque! I reflect a little on how it’s gone before getting into the subject of ‘Awful April’……the annual bills that go up every year….and how I budget to manage it all.

It’s still early in the garden year but a bit of sunshine and a lot of hope get me excited for the free food to come!

A long, chatty catch-up today….grab a cuppa, a ball of wool….a pile of ironing. I have a mystery parcel, some consumer stuff including a caution, some books…..and a surprise ‘Easter Egg’!

At Home: Chatty Catch-up. Mystery parcel, consumer stuff, books & surprise food.
This week I’ve had visitors so I’ve been out and about; a visit to my local wool and craft shop, a walk to Old Harry Rocks (a famous group of chalk stacks just off the coast where I live), spring wild flowers and a wonderful close up moment with some skylarks whose song is one of my all-time favourite sounds. Oh……and a very clumsy moment……and a sneak peak, first glimpse of my new shelves.
