Where growing, making and good living come together. My ten favourite simple living/growing/cooking/making books. On Tuesday 11 October 2011 in cooking.

Garden epiphanies | The Really Good Life
http://www.thereallygoodlife.com/7383/garden-epiphanies
Where growing, making and good living come together. On Monday 18 June 2012 in growing. Since deciding to have a ‘less is more’ approach.

With stuff from the freezer – there isn’t enough room for ice cream so we need to clear some space! 8221; – it’s surprisingly endearing (all from the library). Um, surprisingly very little at the moment.

Random, self-absorbed musings of a Scheherezade wannabe with a crocheting grandmother personna. Monday, December 07, 2009. So sorry I've been lax in posting on the blog. The latest project is taking up a lot of time. I am the one putting the squares together, so my time to post on the blog is quite limited. But I had to share this bonus I received with the square sent to me by PipneyJane. She knows about my penguin fixation and whenever she has cause to send me something, she includes one of these:.
