tiny happy

a) a tangle of wildflowers in a field at my sister's place

b) I made this new summer blanket: it's a secondhand candlewick cotton bedspread, washed a few times, then mended in a few places with Liberty lawn patches. Cosy and cool at the same time.

Thank you for your kind and thoughtful comments and emails about my last post. I'm working my way through replying to them all and feel so grateful to have so much support.

And hooray for keeping archives- I've already been consulting old pages for recipes and notes on projects. As predicted, cake recipes are my most looked-up information.

I'm looking forward to the new year that is stretching ahead.
