It’s true.  I am addicted to Avocados, thank goodness they are so good for us.  I know they are high in fat, but everything now points to the fact that Avocado’s are “good” fats.  They are supposed to reduce levels of bad cholesterol in our blood which then reduces the risk of strokes and heart […]

I don’t  know if it is because I am a Piscean, but I fall in love very quickly.  When I first saw these adorable sleepy elephants heads by Fiona Walker I was smitten! These wall hanging decorative heads are all hand made with love and care by women under the wings and watchful eyes of […]

I can’t tell you how much I LOVE the melamine products from RICE.  I have been a RICE stockist since William was a tiny baby and he is now 11 years old.  We still use the very first 4 room plate I ever bought.  RICE melamine is fun, funky and functional and it lasts and […]

The fashion world has long been hooked on animal prints – they are fast becoming the ‘new neutrals’, and this year’s leopard print espadrille will add a flash […]

I have a friend called Emma, she is a bit of a Super-Mum…always looks great, house is always clean and tidy…her kids are always well behaved AND she cooks almost every meal from scratch! Well if she wasn’t so lovely and so much fun I would hate her! (I always look like a scarecrow, my […]

Lovely Zoe from Pinks & Green recently sent me a pretty turquoise melamine cake stand. So I of course had to make something to go on it!
