Hope you all had a very Merry Christmas...
Creating new memories of moments shared with loved-ones...
Good food and laughter and perhaps a tipple or two?!
Good food and laughter and perhaps a tipple or two?!
And maybe a few special pressies were opened and savoured?
We blew the cobwebs away with a bracing walk around the village on Boxing Day...
with another roast dinner in the evening.
Then Sunday it was back to work and on with the painting once again...with a little help from my eldest daughter.
The painting is almost complete now. There will be fittings to install and general bits and bobs to finish and then I shall have the huge task of moving all my stock in. I have booked some exterior painters to renovate the outside of the shop for me, as from the 4th January, but that will be weather permitting...Brrr...
If I have time I shall return to my blog for a look back over 2009, like I did last year and to wish you all every happiness for 2010,

What a sweet kitchen. I love all the red and white and pink. The cupboards are beautiful too.

I just adore your kitchen! Is that pink mixed in with red? If it is, I didn't realize that I love it together!
