just a minute in june

coconut rice with spinach, mushrooms & seeds

the days are colder now
and i'm wearing hats and gloves and scarves,
warming up next to little pixel and drinking lots of tea

reading brideshead revisited, evelyn waugh
watching shame
singing along to soft, beautiful songs
making plans for days to come
working quite a lot
baking chocolate chip cookies almost every day

hope you have a lovely friday

felted

a few weeks ago i went to a needle felting workshop
i did a little wizardly polar bear with a starry pointy hat
and then a little mouse for pixel to play with ♥

sunday (II)

{ re-uploaded. originally posted on june 11, 2012 }

hi hello,
happy monday ♥

asleep on a sunbeam

sometimes i wish i lived in a small house with a big garden
and not a tiny window

the sweet scent of sun dried clothes,
the soft touch of grass beneath my feet
life's little pleasures.

noon

korma chicken with bulgur pilaf

coconut red lentil soup & cha siu bao

may, 2012.
a cold, rainy long weekend
perfect for movies & homemade food
