Wholesome Goodness

 

Fresh and seasonal

The foods you eat shouldn't be dictated by whether the make you fat or thin,

but by the goodness you get out of each bite.

I always try to eat produce that is in season. 

When it comes down to it, if it's recently fallen from the tree or plucked from the ground,

I know it's better for me and my family.

Cosy Up

 

 

 

I love Autumn, there's something very comforting about :-

a glass off red in front of an open fire,

home baked fruit pies warm from the oven,

brisk walks with a cosy scarf 

and kicking autumn leaves in a pair of gumboots!

Vintage Chic with a Dash of Blue

 

 

The combination of blue and white is so fresh and pretty.
In my opinion, it works best when it's just a splash of blue :-
perhaps a feature wall,
a painted piece of furniture,
a display of blue and white china
or some scatter cushions and a piece of art.
I think by having just a touch it gives blue a fresher, more up-to-date look.

Undefinable Beauty

 'For beautiful eyes, look for the good in others,

for beautiful lips, speak only words of kindness,

and for poise walk with the knowledge that you are never alone'

Escape To Provence

 

 Escape to St Remy en Provence

Remodeled by Parisian interior designer Joelle Pléot, this one-story summer house is located in St Remy en Provence, Southern France. I love the touches of the raspberry and lime - it adds an unexpected pop of colour to this rustic cottage.  The house plan is organized so that every room communicates with the outside... wine and cheese anyone?

Sunday Garden Party

 

It's Sunday and that makes it the perfect day of the week to enjoy the garden and some fresh air! Make the most of blue skies and sunshine and set up lunch or afternoon tea on the lawn. Gather friends and family for a lazy, indulgent alfresco lunch. Happy Sunday!
