Monday






I posted Scenes From the Weekend yesterday, which left Monday unrepresented. As a child, I used to make sure that all of the stuffed animals and dolls lining my bed were paired with a fellow stuffed animal to ensure that nobody "felt" lonely when I left the room. Anyone else? No? Just me? 

I suppose that's what I'm doing with this post, as Monday was part of this weekend. Please don't feel left out, Monday: you were quiet, peaceful and exactly what I needed before the start of a busy week. 

Corresponding to the photos: 1). fluffiest bouquet of peonies yet, 2). leftover trimmings, 3). lemons, 4). homemade lemonade, 5). childhood photo to share with my class, 6). pink shrub on the side of the house.

    I bought my pillow-pet bumble bee a pillow-pet ladybug friend. The difference is, I'm not a child anymore...:-)

    Cooked a smashing Nigella Lawson dish with lemons last night. Lemon zest and juice, chilli flakes, bacon lardons, garlic oil and fresh parsley. SO good.

    Hope you are well. I am feeling a little low today and so it's been nice to hang here for five. Hugs. x

    That photo of you is so adorable!! Looks like you've always been super cheerful! Also.. I always didn't like when my stuffed toys were lonely. One night I remember taking one to bed at night and feeling bad for the others so I put ALL of my stuffed toys in the bed at night... how I slept, I have no clue!

    Glad I'm not alone in my stuffed animal sensitivity ;)

    Will, chin up. I'm so glad that my space draws a smile. Bear hug.

    Lena, it's easy when the subject is peonies!

    Caroline, I picked that photo to share because I liked all of the bows. I knew my style, even at four...

    Emily, they're floral clippers, and yes, I agree!

    My sister does that still! She keeps her dolls and stuffed animals together so that they can keep each other company :)

    Love these images, especially the one of your childhood photograph. You're so cute. Even your eyes are smiling!
