'tis almost time...

We're off to get our tree tomorrow...fingers and toes crossed for snow!
I know, a long shot...but you never know...

What:nots...

Happy Monday - I hope you all had a grand weekend. Ours was lovely and relaxing which is always a nice thing. Unfortunately I spent most of it with a head cold which wasn't such a nice thing. Here's to a good week ahead.

Heike Weber's extraordinary silicone installations.
I throughly recommend you click through and have a peek at the close ups - they're stunning.

Lots to love with Zara's kids collection.

...I'd give them all to you...
Happy Thanksgiving!

What:nots...

Here we are on a soggy Sunday, mid November. It was practically dark at half past four today. The past week has been mixed. On the good (well, to be honest, great) news front I am the proud owner of a horse!! His name is Irish, and he is a very handsome chestnut thoroughbred. On the not so good news front I'm laid up in bed with a severely pulled back muscle. Ouch. Annoying, and somewhat ironic as I won't be riding for a wee while. Hopefully things are well in your neck of the woods. I'm looking forward to a quiet evening in with R's chicken and mushroom pie, followed by rhubarb and apple crumble with lots of whipped cream. Yum.

I too, wonder Mr Carroll.



One of my all time favourite images.


An extraordinarily lovely peony.

What:nots...

Gosh has it really been two weeks? Time just seems to be flying. We appear to arrived in November complete with shorter days, crisp temperatures, and leaves left, right and centre. On the exciting news front, we are now staying in Portland for another year...whoop whoop! And this morning I competed in my first horse show. Horrifically nerve wracking, but lots of fun. I even managed a second place in one class...whoop whoop! Here's a long overdue what:nots. Happy Sunday eve...
The lovely Miss Moss.

Elizabeth + ginger...



I have been coveting this Anne Hall print for ages. And this morning my very own copy arrived - what a treat!

Hello Sunday afternoon. How was the past week for you? Mine drifted by slowly while I did battle with a nasty cold. Slowness and colds aside a flattering highlight was having my Pinterest account included here. It totally made my day! I hope the week ahead is a good one. With R in China the boys and I have a few plans up our sleeves, starting with a trip to Salt & Straw to try out their new apple season inspired flavours.

How the light gets in...



Today has been...well, less than stellar to be honest, but perhaps that's how the light gets in? A quiet meandering walk through a sunny, autumnal Forest Park, a sweet clip of a quiet ride, and a son who has offered to help make dinner - signs that the light is coming in...

What:nots...

Happy Friday! Things have started to get busy in the lead up to end of the year. Do you ever feel like it starts earlier and earlier each year....? Our weekends are filling up fast and it's only October - hopefully things are quieter in your neck of the woods. We have a bit of exciting news about the year ahead - more on that in a week or two. In the meantime here's what:nots - have a wonderful weekend!
