Hello! Welcome to the week. I hope everyone has had a great weekend and that you’re all raring to go. I am, sort of, but I have some things I’d like to sort out and organise before I feel that I can really get going. One of the things I’d like to plan for are [...]

It is Monday, the start of a new week, and the week that I begin to slowly, slowly decorate the house for Christmas. Pottering about the place in the evenings putting up lights and sorting out the decorations. We purchased our tree on Saturday and if you follow me on Facebook or Twitter (links below) [...]

Hello! When I asked my Christmas Question a few days ago several of you requested an Advent Calendar How-To. I opted for a pocket advent this year as I like the way they take over an entire wall with something Christmassy. This will go well in the dining room while the Stocking Advent I made [...]

Morning! Happy Friday everyone. Friday? Again? Does that not seem a little odd to you? It all goes by so quickly. A project that is still ongoing is my Easter table. I bought these great wooden birdhouses from the rather fabulous Hobbycraft. They were unfinished when I picked them up so I gave them a [...]

Hello! How are you today? How were your pancakes? Have you given anything up for Lent? Well, here in West Sussex things are moving along. My daughter has two teeth on the bottom that you know about and now she has two teeth coming through in the top. This means that when she is in [...]

It’ll be here in a week, a WEEK! I’m excited I have to admit. This is without doubt my favourite week of the year and Christmas Eve is my favourite day of the year. I much prefer it to Christmas Day as I LOVE the excitement of it all. And the cosiness, mustn’t forget that. [...]

Do you remember the little village that the Munchkins lived in in the movie version of The Wizard of Oz? I always used to love it when they’d show the baby Munchkins asleep in a giant nest complete with egg shells as beds. They looked so cosy and I remember thinking as a child that [...]

Aha! Welcome to the week. Preparations for Christmas have been somewhat stalled here at my house in West Sussex due to a rather busy few days spent dealing with various bits and pieces. But it’s Monday, the start of a brand new seven days on planet earth and I’m ready to rock and roll. Today [...]
