At our local Farmer's Market the first of the Cheddar Strawberries
were for sale this morning!
My Cath Kidston magazinewas waiting for me on the doormat
when I arrived home from work!
..........and I had to buy the 'Take A Break' magazine today
I wouldn't normally buy it, in fact
I don't buy any magazines like this at all!
But........it is my son Robert in the photograph
illustrating for one of the stories!
Also I had a commission to knit some more of the Bunting too!
Oooh strawberries... nice! I love them. I have just got the CK mag through the post. I don't usually buy mags either, but this week I was loitering in a shop when my eagle eye spotted a free CK tote bag with the mag Living (or something like that!) so I had to didn't I! Yes I did! No wonder you bought that mag! GOod egg for your son! Have a lovely weekend! suzie xxx
ReplyDeleteThose strawberries look delicious!
ReplyDeleteI haven't been to Cheddar for a while. I remember seeing lots of strawberries for sale just before you reach the boot fair site.
You mut be very pleased for your son.
Have a good weekend

I know from experience that there is nothing like good English strawberries. They taste the way strawberries are supposed to taste.

Ooh! Fresh English strawberries - is summer on it's way?
ReplyDeleteHow fun to see your son in a magazine!

I didn't realise those mags used actors - mind you, I only read them if there isn't a country life in the doctors waiting room! I hope you are keeping a memory chest with a big star on it for all his clippings etc!!!

im batty over bunting...but its so lovely! ;0)x
Just found you via the 20 minuters link and had to say first of all you are a star for posting the knitted bunting (we are making bunting for our wedding in October and I have been looking for a good pattern!) and also comment on your lovely blog!
ReplyDeleteHi Julie,
ReplyDeleteYour son Robert is doing so well for himself; you just never know where a career in acting can take him.
Your knitted bunting looks fab.
You asked about my new toy; I bought a cake smoother, which is basically a big flat paddle. The idea is you place baking paper/grease proof paper over the cake’s surface (top and sides) and use it to get a smooth finish on your cake.
Thankyou for always coming to visit me on my blog. It always cheers me up to see a visitor or two.
Best Wishes,
Gillian
