I've said goodbye to my vintage sheet chairs, they will now be making someone else very happy. Feels good.
I've been entertaining friends...simple food, lovely conversation, delicious wine. Feel blessed.
Had a sneaky hour in the local with my hubbie and some friends. Very indulgent.
Bought myself a new book...which I will share soon. It's beautiful.
Spent lots of time planning my new garden, getting an idea of the costs, and what will be involved. Very excited.
Had a go at lasagne gardening. Delicious veg?
What have you been up to just lately, I'd love to here!

That sounds like a good few days. A new book is always such a treat, I'm glad you're enjoying it. It's exciting to be at the planning stage with a garden isn't it. I shall look forward to seeing those lovely raised beds in action. Wishing you a good weekend. CJ xx
ReplyDeleteMe too...it's a bit messy at the moment but hopefully the beds will get planted up this weekend! :) xxx

ReplyDeletexxxxxx and happy gardening !!!!! Ale
She's adorable isn't she, well she is until she bites you! ;) xxx
DeleteIt sounds like you've had a wonderful week! Your veg beds look interesting were they a kit or did you design them yourself? I'm debating over a couple more veg beds & one like that would look lovely next to my little seating area x
ReplyDeleteHi Jo, they are kits from Birdies, an Australian company, not cheap but I'm hoping they will last a long time...very attractive too! :) xxx
DeleteIt looks like you've been very busy!x
ReplyDeleteRoping the other half in too, although he's not amused! ;) xxx
DeleteSounds like a good bunch of lately to me, I've just been planting the sweetpeas out, by sitting on a blanket by the border, trying to make the gardening as low energy as I can, grown your own lasagne sounds like fun

Sounds perfect, I'm going to get a little stool to do my veg beds, fancy some knee pads with springs too! ;) xxx
DeleteSuch a bright and happy blog, I love your images of your black and white kitty and the ginger kitty on a previous post. Your crochet is lovely and I really like the chair cushions you made especially in the yellow colourway.
ReplyDeleteWarm greetings
xoxoxo ♡
Thanks for popping by Dianne, and thank you for your lovely comments :) xxx
DeletePretty pics of a busy few days! What book? Looking forward to finding out!
ReplyDeletePure Colour by Jane Cumberbatch it's great! :) xxx
DeleteMy vintage sheet fabrics came through, they are so gorgeous. I am hoping to make some bits for my Sister-in-law for Christmas if my daughter doesn't nabble them first! Your cat looks so comfortable. sharon x
ReplyDeleteHope you make something super nice with them! :) xxx
DeleteYour photos are always so beautiful, sounds like you've been having a busy, happy time. A new book is always such a good treat. My treat has been some lovely bright yarn to try an Indian Sari inspired design in crochet, it may take me quite some time, lol. Hx
ReplyDeleteOoooh, that yarn sounds delicious! Thank you for your lovely comments! :) xxx
DeleteThat cat - I'm beginning to wish we had one again! Maybe an addition to our new house once we get moved in and settled. And once Joe understands that tails are not for pulling...
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend and good luck with your garden. It'll be lovely.

She is lovely Sarah, we rescued her from a nasty man...doesn't stop her biting on occassion and I think I'm the only person in the house who's not frightened of her!!! I'm very excited about my garden plans, I'm hoping it will keep me going a few more years! ;) xxx
DeleteI love the look of your raised beds. I was thinking about putting some in the garden this year, I've left it a bit late now! Maybe next year. xx
ReplyDeleteThey are fantastic Caroline, you must try next year :) xxx
