Misty visitor
Not the best photo – it had to be quick – but look who was wandering around in our garden the other evening.
Our stuff arrives on Saturday – I am so looking forward to it. Imagine having a muffin tin… A favourite book… Something for the girls to do on a rainy day… It’s going to be awesome.
Chicks building houses:
From Lloyd’s blog (so you may have already seen this) Linda made a treehouse in the woods of upstate New York. It’s so sweet, and simple and very cool and her photos of her friends and their treehouse weekends are the stuff of dreams.
Local collective : Mudgirls: “We are a network of women who build natural structures for ourselves and each other, as well as helping others build their own, and sharing natural building skills through affordable workshops. We specialize in building with cob, as well as other natural material such as strawbale, driftwood, adobe, cordwood and recycled materials like glass, car tires, glass bottles and more.”
Wow, is this island for real? Sounds like some sort of organic, permaculture utopia! Can’t wait to see how you and your family grow there (and what you make!)
I saw a painting last night that was all foggy like this 🙂
I actually think it’s a great picture. The colours are vibrant but muted. Lucky you for having such a visitor.
mystical looking deer…in the mist.Any unicorns or centaurs?
I hope you can find everything you need amongst your stuff. We moved three months ago and I still can’t find my stab blender (we are living without homemade pesto at the moment and it’s terrible) and my Food Safari cookbook (oh Food Safari cookbook, how I love thee)… terribly frustrating!Looking at the misty photo reminds me that it was a year ago that Eastern Australia had THAT dust storm. I can’t believe it was already a year ago.
That picture is magical!
Oh how beautiful Claire. Lucky you!! I do love deer.x
I really like that photo! The colours and the fog make it really magical.xx
Hello Claire. I’m loving the content of your blog and have been reading it since being introduced by Pip over at Meet me at mikes…ooh and Lloyds too….he seems like such an interesting character.I’m a knitter but you inspired me to try out crocheting. I loved the look of your granny blanket and the Nanny McPhee image….hope you don’t mind I pinched it…..but have linked over to your blog so everyone else can see how good yours is too.
Amazing image of the deer. We live it Oxford, England. We’re really close to the city but back on to a woods and get little monk jack deer coming into the garden. They eat everything in sight so have to share our vegetables with them but since they let us share their woods we think it’s a fair exchange.
I look forward to reading about your continuing adventures.Deb
I wish this photo was on flickr so I could add it to my favourites.I’ve been following your blog for a while now and your new island life sounds incredible, I’d love to have random deer visitors in my garden!
Just magical!
Stunning photo! All mystical and dreamy. Lovely
look at him! magic!I get pigeons on the balcony of my little Melbourne flat. But they’re not very exotic, and they poop everywhere.. hehe at one with nature!
