Catch Up Monday


The last two weeks have flown by, and I can't say that I have done anything of note - just work, housework, dog-walking and messing about on Instagram. I have been fighting a cold which has left me feeling tired and uninspired to write a blog post. But I'm feeling much better now and can share a little of the last two weeks with you.

I've bought some more vintage lovelies on Ebay - this wonderful Sadler teapot with yellow roses and below that an Art Deco toast rack and preserve pot for the breakfast table. We know how to have toast and marmalade in style :)



I've been busy baking more chocolate cake, at the request of Lovely Hubby.




I finally cleared my desk after weeks. I had a good week of selling on Ebay and made a profit of £50.00 :) Lovely Hubby and I took all the parcels to the post office this morning so it was good to get rid of those things and reclaim some space. 

























I treated myself to these gorgeous folders from Cath Kidston, to keep all my cuttings tidy.




And today I spent the morning catching up on letter writing. It's been a nice slow day and I could do with more like that.




I have a few more hours before Tai Chi, dinner and then bed :)

Have a great week my friends x
