Nowadays I …

- read very little, especially books which is unfortunate but I don’t get much time to do it. it’s easier to read short magazine articles or blogs. I have been reading The Rector’s Daughter for weeks!

- watch a lot of drama, The Crimson Petal and the White on BBC  is as good as the book, Romola Garai is excellent as Sugar but I am having trouble with Chris O’Dowd as William Rackham, unfortunately I cannot get the image of Roy out of my head!

- watch a lot of films, I really loved Somewhere, Cleo was a mini version of Sofia

- bake cookies, American style, peanut butter and chocolate chip are my faves

- don’t knit, it demands time and concentration, knitting is left to Freddie’s great grandma

- go out to lunches and stay in for dinners

- shop online, The Outnet being my top destination, this lovely jacket is the latest addition from their 80% off sale

- dream about the day when I can cycle again

- plan my garden

- enjoy my time with this little creature, every minute is precious, he grows so fast

    thank you Miranda! The Outnet is truly great especially if you can get high street prices with designer quality.

    Oh he is such a cutie! And the peanut butter cookies and garden look pretty fab too. Coveting your Homemaker dishes :)

    Hi there! Thank you for your comment. I loved all the Polarn clothes– adorable!
    And, speaking of adorable, it’s to nice to see your wee one! I don’t think I’ve heard from you since before he was born, but that really does seem like yesterday. The days do fly by and, like you, I have no time for reading or much else beyond my girl. I’m really happy for you. He is precious!
