Mostly at the moment in the studio, we’re listening to Mumford & Sons....

A Christmasy visit to the Orangery
We went to Christmas at the Orangery in Bristol on Saturday - for arts, design, crafts and edibles!
The Peacock
Mark and I had a brilliant night away on Thursday last week and as a very special treat we stayed at The Peacock at Rowsley (Derbyshire).
It was a really great place and we loved it and want to go back already!
Their beer mats were great (and so was the beer!) AND the food was AMAZING! ....
Lots of new designs for Valentines!
Alice Palace has got some brand new Valentines cards - to be launched at Top Drawer Spring, just in time for expressing your love to that someone special! Traditionally, spring begins on St Valentine’s Day, the day on which birds chose their mates, so to mark this tradition,‘You’re the one for me’, a beautiful illustration featuring a little bird (which is suitable for sending to both men and women alike) is one of the new designs.
eggnog latte time!!!
YEY - the eggnog latte’s are back and I had my first one of 2009 on Saturday - yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmy!
These new bars by Dorset Cereals are also VERY yummy indeed and are currently my favourites, closely followed by the soreen bars that seem to have disappeared (maybe no one else liked them?)…
And so’s this Dandelion ale…
Don’t forget to dream
I love these children’s Stamps on the theme of “Let Children Learn” (they’re by Christian Borstlap)....

Hereford Contempoary Craft Fair
After a fun night full of homemade pizzas and gin & tonics with Katie and Matt, Lizzy picked me up on Saturday morning and we set off for Hereford to go along to the contempoary craft fair. It was really good and I made a few purchases including a ‘hello lovely’ greeting card, a mug (i love), a Christmas decoration, and I even managed to get a great Christmas present for myself from Liz!
This is the card - Hello Lovely by Teresa Green…
near miss
This squirrel had a near miss (and had a moment to reflect on his life) after Jemima came very close to catching him yesterday morning.... phew!

Our Mr & Mrs apron is included in the Not on the high street mail out for personalised and practical gifts - we’re selling LOADS of them!!!
