a few things....

A few things from the month of February...

.... making baked apples with cinnamon cream from a new book 'The Vintage Tea Party' I might try these scones next....

...an old suitcase which I plan to cover in Liberty fabric stacked up with books and magazines ...

...a month without chocolate would just never happen...these one are very special...

teacups & roses

I treated myself to a bunch of roses from the farmer's market, they won't last long, but I couldn't resist their beautiful butter colour and they smell amazing, plus with this autumnal weather we are having lately, it reminds me that it is still summer! 

What is it about vintage china that is so appealing, I love the rose patterned plates, but amazingly I managed to walk past without buying anything!

tea time

It's nearly time for tea....

Sometimes you can't beat a cup of tea and a slice of cake. I bought the cake plates at my local flea market. It's seems only fair to use them!

Here's a close up of my workspace at the moment.
