Can't believe another week has gone by. Well, I have a couple of days off work and I am determined to catch up. These photos were taken last week so here goes.
I am seeing Red,Red,Red...........our new sofa was delivered last week and it just fits, we did measure the space it had to go into but we had not appreciated how much it would jut out into the room. We are so pleased to have comfortable seating at last. I am hoping to make some new cushions, but in the meantime I got my eye on these in Morrison's of all places, inexpensive and colour co-ordinated.

This got me thinking, I have a lot of RED in my home at the moment. Looking around me I find..........more red things.
On these bright and sunny days my diet changes and I long for fresh fruit, salad and vegetables.I am enjoying healthy breakfasts when I am not rushing out at the crack of dawn.
And in the evenings, home made Cesar Salad, the dressing made with the hens eggs, look how yellow the yokes are .
Since my crocheting workshop with Vanessa I have been busy making a few flowers, with different wools. I want to incorporate them into jewellery at some point.
I saw this pattern book in John Lewis and couldn't resist making these little beauties from it.
The garden is "springing" into action, or should I say "summering", the Clematis has been out for a week now, the peonies are bulging and the oriental poppies just waiting for warmer days. Our seedlings are growing well, we will be ready to plant them out soon.
A freebie in this months "Easy Living" a Kath Kidtson plastic bag and a fantastic offer, 15% off everything in the catalogue. I have ordered myself a bag, resistance is not one of my strong points.
I have started taking treats to work on Fridays, and last week we had Rocky Road from the 4 Ingredients Cook Book,Turkish Delight, Marshmallows Macadamia Nuts and Chocolate. This week's treat is sorted already we are having "Malteser Cake".
I am constantly drinking tea while blogging, I am ready for another cuppa now and a sit down to read................
This magazine I bought yesterday.
And finally a big Hello to all my new blog-sphere friends out there, it is lovely to have your company.Catch up with you all again soon. x
