Firstly, for all of your lovely and generous comments to my last post, a sincere thank you. You are what balm is to chapped lips. Calmer now, I move to other things to ponder, of much less weight, such as:
The fact that
Lurpak thought of making butter with crushed sea salt in it.
Inspired and oh-so-Danish.
The very cool sunglasses I saw someone wearing yesterday. I so wish I had asked her where they were from? But I was put off by her coltish look; and now I'll never know!
I don't recall being
this interested in the arrival of summer for years. Has it been a
really long winter? I want to feel the sun on my skin.
We start now on 4 weeks of school holidays; I really did try to get the house in order beforehand as I know...within a matter of mere days we will be living as if we emptied out every drawer and cupboard. I like the lined-up slippers here...
I am going today to visit another of my oldest friends (I have alot of
old friends don't I? I am all about longevity). I smiled as I read an article in this month's UK Vogue (all inspired by the Royal wedding) about how bridesmaids have to endure dresses they did not choose.
I was this old friend's bridesmaid a few years back. I was not able to go to any dress fittings (distance, rapid wedding-planning and small children conspired against it) so she promptly visited Selfridges, tried on two options
as if she were me, bought them both and presented me with a choice. I opted for the silver satin, slinky red carpet-esque, backless number.
Now that was a bridesmaid's dress! Not for the first time, I knew we would be friends for life.
Finally, a blogger who has been with me more or less since the start - Chania of
Razmataz sent me some wonderful treats. I won a 'pay it forward' on her blog and received the most beautiful delicate little Easter trinkets from her shop in Canada. Just preciousness in the post....
so thank you kindly :-)
