Till Tuesday



Lost a bit of my blogging way just now- I am sure I will find a way back soon.

So for now;

1. 70's and 80's Shirley Hughes for the bundles. Loved her when I was wee and they love her now.
2. New green thrifted wineglasses- kitchen glasses as I call them.
3. Two cheeky monkeys!

That's all for now and have a lovely week everyone, Jo xx

  1. I love the Alfie and Annie Rose books too! I've only got a few by Shirley Hughes but they make me feel so nostalgic for a care-free childhood; I hope I can give our children a similar treasured nostalgia for them to reflect back on when they grow up...

    I'm also loving reading them Mog books :-)

  6. Your bundles are adorable :-) I'm also a bit 'stuck' with my blogging at the moment but it has more to do with lack of time than anything else... x

  8. Hello Lovely. You know I've been without internet access for 4 days and whilst I missed it, I also quite liked not having the pressure of email/blogging/social media etc. Take a break, breathe and then come back to it fresh. It does you the world of good! x

    Look at that gorgeous red hair!
