a visual ride…
I went to the cinema last night to see Avatar and TOTALLY LOVED it! And it was really fun wearing the glasses and seeing in 3d...the forest scenery on planet Pandora is AMAZING!
our brand new bedroom
we’ve spent ages doing up our bedroom recently and it is now very nearly complete and we LOVE it! here are a few snippets…
This is a mirror that mark made which i then painted and covered with some lovely roses which can be purchased here...
has spring sprung??
...what a beautiful day it’s been!
here i am in a horses eye (the horses name is fly)!
the 100 year tree was saved!
There are high street renovations going on in Evesham at the moment and there was a BIG protest to save one of the trees which is 100 years old. We signed the petition thinking it wouldn’t actually do anything - BUT it has!!!! and the tree has been SAVED - yey!
Mother’s Day
Our ‘Mummy is the best cook ever’ apron is featured in the Not on the high street Mother’s Day mailer....
it’s a really great Mother’s Day gift! Buy this apron...
Other good gifts include:
1. Some pretty flowers (or a wonderful bag with some on!)...Buy this bag...
Royal Mail postmarks
YEY! one of the phrases that Alice Palace submitted as an idea for postmarks for the Royal Mail has been chosen as a winner! ...‘Post a piece of happiness – send a card’ (the rules are they they must be positive messages, of up to nine words and must include the word ‘card’) - it’s a great collaboration and fantastic publicity for the greetings card industry....
snow & sunshine
The snow came down sooooooooooooooo fast as I walked home with Jemima on Thursday - it was great!
a good old cuppa
Just having a lovely cuppa right now...and watching MASSIVE snowflakes out of the window (a very productive day!!)
Here’s some directions for a good cuppa....
1. Use tea from India or Ceylon (Sri Lanka), not China
2. Use a teapot, preferably ceramic
3. Warm the pot over direct heat
4. Tea should be strong - six spoons of leaves per 1 litre
5. Let the leaves move around the pot - no bags or strainers
6. Take the pot to the boiling kettle
7. Stir or shake the pot
8. Drink out of a tall, mug-shaped tea cup
9. Don’t add creamy milk
10. Add milk to the tea, not vice versa
11. No sugar!
