LOVING my coloured candles...

My wonderful daughter bought these fab candles for me, for Mothers Day (UK) way back in March 

I've been admiring them all week.

Their zingy colours have been making me smile  as well as the thought that I will be seeing my big girly on Saturday...

STOCKHOLM & LONDON here I come!

EVENING SUN

I LOVE that the days are getting longer

 and the wonderful Swedish Light

I arrived at the house with the boys for the weekend

 early yesterday evening

This is the sun going down about 8.30pm

WISE WORDS WEDNESDAY

A little humour...

INNER PEACE

 If you can start the day without caffeine,

 

If you can always be cheerful, ignoring aches and pains,

If you can resist complaining and boring people with your troubles,

If you can eat the same food every day and be grateful for it,

If you can understand when your loved ones are too busy to give you any time,

If you can take criticism and blame without resentment,

If you can conquer tension without medical help,

If you can relax without alcohol,

If you can sleep without the aid of drugs,

...Then You Are Probably 

 

The Family Dog! 

HOMESPUN IN LONDON

I have been in London all week

2 BOOKS arrived this morning that I have been waiting to get my hands on...

They didn't disappoint.

The weather is cold, grey and miserable

I've been snuggled on the sofa having a good old read and relishing all the beautiful decor, quite a few of the images I recognise from Scandinavian blogs I follow, which makes this book even more appealing to me, the Scandic slant on it.

The cookery book is a delight too

Pure, delightful images and recipes in typical

simple scandinavian style.

HOMESPUN STYLE

SCANDILICIOUS

Happy Homespun weekend!
