Things I love
CategoryOh so beautiful dresses…
Today, I am dreaming of beautiful dresses. You know the ones. Ones you know you will probably never ever own or ever get to wear…only in your dreams. These two dresses, to me, conjour images in my head of softness, of floating, prettiness, femininity, elegance and oh so French.

Happy dreaming… image: by Norman Parkinson via dustjacket attics I obtained … Continue Reading

Luckily for me, halfway point of my walk is beautiful Tania Park with it’s panoramic views … Continue Reading
Favourite things…
My website is undergoing a revamp at the moment. The new/updated website will contain a section called “Favourite Things”. This section will be home to any number of things that make me happy, smile and be grateful that I have the life I have. As an entre to this section, I have decided to add these pretty, plump, pink hydrangeas. They have been lovingly tended by my elderly neighbour, Frank. He thought I might like some to brighten my day – and they did (and do each and every day that I lay my eyes on them). They make me … Continue Reading
