messing about in boats...

we had a lovely time on the mountain this past weekend,



wind in the willows, such a delight!



spending time in the garden,



and making fairy rings...

treasures...

When I was a little girl, I loved peering into my Gran's china cabinet. The pieces there told lovely stories, both real and imagined. I'm lucky enough to have a small collection of my own now and packing and unpacking it recently I was transported back to those days. China tea-cups and plates, small pieces of crystal, old cookery books and jam jars, each piece has a special meaning.

These are some of my favourites...

may...

in september,
from my walk this morning,
i love may...
