Your Wish Is My Command

Last night I had a dream that the twins had been born and I was holding them. Their tiny little bodies were in my arms and they were so cute I could have eaten them both up!

When I woke up and realised that they weren’t here yet I found myself missing them. Come back, I’m missing you, I want more of you. MORE PLEASE!

Last month as part of my monthly giveaway my question to you all was ” What would you like to see more of at Cherry Menlove.com?”

Your answer was MORE PLEASE!

We had a great response and I have to thank you all for such detailed and thoughtful answers, you really are all utterly fantastic.

We have gone through the emails we received and it would seem that you guys are after the simple stuff. The stuff that makes life better, easier, less complicated and all together more fun. Simple suppers, gardening articles that are written for people who know nothing about gardening, more patterns and downloads, home decorating and restoration ideas etc….

This is all absolutely within our power to give you…….and so we shall. We are working on some brand new buttons and functions for this website that will make the whole thing easier to navigate and offer you all of this.

However, HOWEVER, there was a theme running through a really high percentage of the emails we had that was simply asking for more. More tales from behind the scenes, more pictures of what we get up to on a day to day basis, more personal blogs. Simply put – more of an insight in to what we do everyday here on this little farm in West Sussex.

Most of you, very politely, prefaced your request with stating that you didn’t want to appear nosey when asking for more of this type of thing. I can assure you that sometimes I get emails asking very personal questions that I simply won’t answer but this type of request is the sort of thing that I myself would want to see. I’m always fascinated by peeks behind the scenes, reality shows and pictures showing how things are done.

I started writing a blog about my days in England and adventures in all things ‘home and garden’ in 2006. It was entirely personal and I threw a lot of myself in to it. But as time wore on I wanted something more substantial to write about. I was almost bored of writing about myself and my thoughts on things. i wanted projects to get my teeth in to and I wanted to grow and develop in whole range of skills and then to share this with the people who read my site.

And that is what I have been doing exclusively for the eighteen months or so. I’ve written personal blogs in that time and my Twin Pregnancy Diary has certainly been more personal. But having read your emails I think I now know that you want a bit of both – content and life. The Stuff of Life.

I feel very privileged that these are the sorts of things you have requested as I very often disregard photos, articles, stories and the like as I’m convinced that would be interesting to NOBODY. But perhaps that isn’t entirely true.

In light of all of this, bear with us, we have some modifying to do and some changes to make to to the website but you have all been heard and as we all know…it’s good to talk!

Before I go don’t forget to download my desktop calender for the month of May….MAY!!!!!!!
