today::

collecting bits of daily life. moments i want to remember.


t is for tea


my new teapot is birds egg blue. it's teamed with some lovely old teacups. loving the old and the new mix that's happening round here.

s is for sling

a morning with no kids. sorted the bedroom. baked some yo-yo biscuits for a friend. sewed a sling for a wee one's dolls. it was a birthday party and a sad goodbye.

g is for goat island reserve

the water was crystal clear and the seaweed like jewels. enjoyed putting my feet in.

c is for cider



my love. having a summer cider. we're moving into autumn now. maybe cider is an autumn drink too.

s is for sewing machine


using her namesake olive's sewing machine. old school singer goodness. a very precious link between generations.

p is for puddles and popcorn


we had a morning of rain dancing and puddle splashing, then inside for popcorn and pots of tea.
