Things That Make Me Happy

Well firstly there is great excitement as we, Katie and I have booked our tickets for Saturday afternoon to visit the Country Living Fair in Islington.

So we will be off lunchtime tomorrow, leaving all men behind, yippee and will indulge ourselves in sheer happiness as we explore all the wonderful stalls that will be exhibiting there.




Happiness, preparing the evening meal with Jude playing happily by me feet or sitting in his highchair munching on a piece of toast while he waits for his bedtime bottle.




Happy that at last the bookcase is now painted and I can play with my arrangements till my hearts content.


Happy that one curtain is finished and can now be hung properly.
The other is almost finished!
These curtains are so soft and light, perfect for the summer months.

So happy that I beat Guy to my new Kate Forman catalogue.
Anything that the postman puts through the letterbox wrapped in plastic get tossed around the hall until he has managed to get all the plastic off!



The images above and below are from the new Kate Forman catalogue.
Full of beautiful pictures, fabrics and inspiration.
I get so much pleasure from my home, it is just finding time to juggle all the things that I want to do and Have to do!

On my recent visit to Bath I also bought these Georgian Pewter side plates.
Pewter is a big Happy for me.
But not tankards!
Just need Mr N to get on and make the shelves so I can display them properly.

The little silver baby spoon was a gift from the lovely lady who owned the shop.

Happy to spot these!
Two very cheap but very pretty vases, 50p each! I believe from Holland.
Well that is what the lady in the shop said, maybe not!
Any clues please ?
How can a growing spoon collection make me Happy!?

It just does.

Mum does not bake anymore.

I was so happy that I managed to rescue her lovely old baking tins before Dad recycled them!


Happy to be able to use this beautiful cutlery and serving spoons.
So much nicer than anything new or modern.


Happy to have spotted these in Greenwich Market but not so happy at the huge price I had to pay for them.
I want to hang them in my kitchen, it is just I cannot decide whether to drill a small hole in them for the string or glue them onto the wall?


And on my last visit to Braodstairs we stopped at Whitestable as there are some very nice little shops there.
I bought this 1950's plastic trinket box, very happy me.
And Mr N bought yet another crotchet blanket ! ! !
for Nigella the VW Camper van......
He moans when I start collections....he must have at least 7 crotchet blankets that he
Just Had To Have!
Well that is it from me for today.
Now I have to get on with the boring housework again.
Not quite so Happy about that.
Have a wonderful weekend all.
