Hoping you all had a lovely Christmas?
we all chilled , a sense of calm took over us all.
I read Monty Don`s diary - so in grossed I completed it in a day.A total inspiration , Lovely writing.
My favourite present- a poem from my daughter. Makes you realise we don't need to rush around in a stressful haze and throw our money at something to produce a thoughtful gift.
A relief its all melting away, the stress too .
I crave pink , blue (just not RED!)
Salad or a Curry?
Hot sunshine
Exercise.
A de-clutter
As much as I wallow in a relax , I'm not one for lots of tv and sitting down for long periods .
A crave my garden , for the blanket of winter to depart and awake to Spring.
I know its too soon yet! Something to dream about, seed catalogues , holidays to plan . Rooms to paint. I rub my hands in glee.
Some get all excited over this Yule tide feast, but I dream of the Seasons to come.

YES. WE ARE OPEN!
I have a wedding to prepare for for tomorrow, so i had to go out and dust off some Ivy and Rose hips. People walking by must have thought i was mad-I must be!!
A truly white wedding.
More candles have arrived-so you can have Christmas spice , Cinnamon and orange or warm mince pie scenting your home.
Have fun in the snow , if you have it? Pity its not Christmas today!

Sunday has been a tidy up and sort out day. So nice to be outside . I potted up the unhappy Bay trees by the shop . They were so pot bound . They have been potted into old Dolly tubs from a vintage fair.
I got Easy Living magazine and was thrilled by the supplement about small individual shops. Some gems, i know I'm biased having my own shop but I'm not excited by main stream shops . When i visit one i love i want to chat to the owners and talk `Shop` some get very hostile and think you are stealing ideas and some are genuinely friendly , just nice to be supportive of one another.
Have you got a favourite small shop or do you own one? Let me know-It would be great to support each other- A website of `one off` shops would be heaven.

Christmas has arrived at Foxtail
Thank you, to all that can to the preview on a wet and windy eve. So nice to see you . Christmas has arrived . The etched glass tea lights have gone down a storm , with the bird Dec's and red roses wreaths . The Cinnamon and orange candles battled with the Christmas spice both , yummy!
Cheers to my pals for all your kind help ( especially Sharon and her friend for coming all the way from Nottingham and rescuing the marque !)

Who done it???
Who set the shop alarm off last night? Woke me (well all of us) in the early hours!
Me thinks ..... A spider!!
Hubbie went on patrol-well Ede would not do a fat lot! Not a soul to be seen.
I'm searching for the guilty suspect .
