Finally as promised...........

Some photos of our lottie.

HUGE pumpkins !!

 The soil is fantastic and as you can see things have gone a bit barmy !!

Brassicas
Carrots
Beans
Peas & beans
Barmy son standing next to the sweetcorn !!
LOTS of potatoes.

Beetroot
And here's a bit of charity shop gold for you. 

We currently go through plates at an alarming rate - I put it down to not having a dishwasher and stacking them up!!

Anyhoo, we had a little jaunt to Pontefract market on Wednesday and had a look around the fab charity shops there.

On the way we saw a canoe for sale by the roadside for £20!! Mr Twigs had been after one for ages, so we stopped and bought it!!

I've been after aforementioned plates for ages, went in the Prince Of Wales Hospice Shop and got this lovely lot of flippin Denby crockery for £4.25!!

And some sundae dishes for our Angel Delight, 3 for a £1 just like my Mum's - they remind me of Sunday tea time.

  However, I forgot to take a photo of them, so will post one next time.

 Here's the bread and butter pud I've made for tonight, we are having it after our chicken with beetroot, potatoes and peas from the lottie - scrummy !!
Good things come to those who wait.

love

Twiggy xx

Well I"ve finally taken the plunge...................

After drooling over many blogs for months now I've decided to finally take the plunge, so here is my new dawn.
Hence the beautiful sunrise above as photographed by Mr Twiggy through our bedroom window. (I'm sure I'll be including a lot of his pics, hope he doesn't expect commision).

I love crafting and have ever since I was a little girl and spent hours playing with my mums button tin (which I've inherited) and amused my self by making dresses for my dollies - even though I'd cut their hair and given them green felt tip highlights. Punk Tiny Tears - I should have marketed this idea !!

Hope you enjoy my work as much as I've enjoyed others who are a daily inspiration to me.

I hope to share favourite blogs, books and anything and everything with you, so enough off my blithering on and watch this space...............................................
