Retro Gravy Jug

I love my new vintage gravy jug! Perfect for when you need to serve "summat moist."

Wall basket

I've planted my wall basket with alpines this time.

White Admiral Phlox

My new plant for my herbacious border, a White Admiral Phlox. I'm hoping it will spread so I can divide it. I like white flowers, they provide a good cool contrast to all the other colours, restful on the eye.

Sinkful of Joy

Joy the cat has taken to sitting in the kitchen sink. Bonkers, that cat! Maybe I can train her to wash-up....now there's a thought....

Magnificent Magnolia

I came across this wonderful Magnolia tree today. The petals were the most beautiful pink colour, all waxy and unspoilt.

Baked Camembert

Pierce the cheese a few times, sprinkle with white wine, a few sprigs of thyme and black pepper. Bake in its box for about 20-30 mins then dip toasted pitta bread fingers in...voila, your own little fondu!

Love bird bird bath

Finally put my new bird bath out which I received for my birthday.
