surgery day
This photo was taken a few days ago. We had a picnic with friends at a local creamery's ice cream stand out in the country. As I look at it now, I'm comforted. Here I am, back at the pumping room in the hospital - all the familiar-yet-not-comforting smells and sounds. That little smile up ther...
When we get our farm (ha!!) I intend to get bees too. I've read all the books, been on the courses but the only thing I lack (apart from the money to buy the stuff?) - the space! If I had a flat roof I would totally be an urban apiarist right now, but til then I'll be happy to pop by on yours for a while. They are very beautiful ladies. (oh and my (just turned) six year old calls drones 'drunks'.... no idea, but very funny).

the bees!
Just after Annabel was born, we got the call that our bees were ready! (I would be seriously remiss in mentioning their arrival without mentioning how they arrived. Steve, who never set out to be the beekeeper (but certainly is now), and didn't take the class or read the books, and never start...
I do sometimes marvel at women who seem to thrive on pregnancy and childbirth. My second was awful - I couldn't walk for the last five months with a trapped leg nerve and nearly three weeks overdue I was a gibbering emotional hormonal wreck. Certainly put me off going for any more. glad to hear your story worked out so well. Love the clothes too xx

she
There's something I didn't tell you before Annabel was born. I knew she was a she. Well, really, I knew she was a girl way back in October, because sometimes a Mama just knows these things, you know? It's true. And I just knew. But we knew for certain a few weeks before her arrival, at my fi...

on papas day
This morning, Father's Day, is one of the very few days of the year when I rise earlier than Steve. With a baby on my chest and four bigger ones at my side, we began our Mother's Day/Father's Day/Birthday tradition of a sleep-in and breakfast in bed. As we all scurried about baking and making, ...

Next weekend I'm taking part in the Saltaire Arts Trail for the first time. It's the fifth year for this amazing three day event, and I'm very excited to be involved. Saltaire itself is a World Heritage site near Bradford that was named after Sir Titus Salt who built a textile mill and the v...

a quilt, inspired by the shore
When I first dreamed up this little quilt last summer, I knew (or hoped rather, at that point) that this home would be ours. That we would be trading our proximity to the beloved shore for so very many other things we had been longing for (and yet, it still really isn't that far away, and fo...
