knitting, nature and living with autism in the family
Making us smile in the last week…
:: Some gorgeous new pillows from the very talented Carolyn at Laughing Duck, and look who snuck in on my photo shoot!(Carolyn, I did iron the covers but as you can see someone has taken a real liking to the pillows and keeps smooshing them again!)
:: more jam making – this time with plums from the garden
:: camp outs in the garden!
Hope your week has brought you smiles wherever you are!
Things that have been making us smile recently…
taking a coach into London with friends to see the spectacular production of Peter Pan
eating the first of our homegrown sweet corn (after first finding the ladybird a new home of course)
making cakes to share with friends (originial inspiration from Domesticali)
day trips to the sunny seaside
I’ve been so enjoying some precious time with Amy these past two weeks, just a couple of snatched days here and there while Toby has been at summer playschemes or chilling at home with Daddy, but it’s been great!
Yesterday we had our first complete homegrown roast dinner (well, apart from the chicken – we’ve not yet despatched one of our ladies, although Chic Chick may well be heading that way if she keeps waking us up with her rooster impression each morning!)
All the veggies though have been homegrown and were picked, pulled and dug before being quickly washed, briefly cooked and eaten hungrily with great enjoyment. I’m really loving being a veggie grower!
