What are you liking today?
Enjoying a second cup of coffee and catching up on my favourite blogs π
Oh I like that very much indeed!
My new entertainment unit which was delivered today! And the delish potato soup currently cooking for lunch. And that the kids are at school.
That book on your pile, Past the Shallows, great read. Loved it.
I’m also loving that doona cover above, the patchwork one…where’d you get that pray tell??
I’d love to know that too. It’s beautiful!
Sure ladies…my old favourite Bed, Bath & Table. I pretty much get all our linen there as it’s local, good prices, good range etc
I love the things you are loving,what an amazing veggie garden mine isn’t as good as yours a bit slower BUT it will give us some fresh tomaotoes and lettuces and strawberries.I do like the pile of books you have to read,enjoy ,beautiful Photos Beth I love them x
Thanks Lisa x
Pausing the Homemade House frenzy to spend time with my three daughters doing something they want to do for a change, instead of constantly telling them I don’t have time right now…
Good on you…I need to do that more often – thanks for the reminder!
A lovely, full of positivity post – that is what I love. Your garden looks fabulous and you have me searching for a really fresh egg and lettuce sandwich. Mmmm.
I’m loving the amount of words I’ve been able to pump out of my head today, on a roll and it feels good. I’m loving the beach, the salt air and freshly painted toenails.
That sounds all beautiful…man do I want an egg & lettuce sambo NOW.
I am loving that I’ve found your inspiring blog (thanks to my big sis) … and, of course, your AWESOME-looking book pile π Hope you enjoy Secrets of the Tides/The Shadow Year. I can highly recommend Rory MacBeath and Past the Shallows – both wonderful reads.
Ha! Thanks Hannah…I can’t wait to tackle yours x
Stoopid head disquis. Dunno if my comment went through…
In a nutshell. Garden stuff you can have, the rest HELLZ TO THE YEAH. especially the freshly washed sheets…
Let’s hope Harps doesn’t blow chunks on these ones!
Coffee, friends and time (a very precious commodity ) xT
Jeepers isn’t it?
And iced coffee…with sweetened condensed milk.
Oh holy SHIT that’s something I need in my life right now. Gimme.
love all the images.
Thank you!
Ah your pictures are making me crave the day I have a garden again π
Thanks Kelly…we are very lucky x
lovely!!!
Thanks Melanie! π
im liking that your sitting by your fire in November!
Oh me too! That was a nice touch π
I’m liking many things popping up in my garden too. My lettuce, rocket and cucmber plants are going nuts! And I just purchased a blueberry plant today so I’m excited to nurture the shit out of it.
Man do I need a blueberry bush (or 27) to keep my girls fed! Good luck with it!
That’s us with strawberries, I have so many plants because the 13 month old just inhales them. I think you have a green thumb Beth!
Please let me know what you think of the book by Emily rapp. I couldn’t decide whether to buy it the other day, not sure if I need/want to go where she has gone, it sounds like a heart breaking read !
Today, I’m liking………my restorative yoga class. Meaning we got to lie down alot instead of the usual boot camp class !
Heart breaking reads are also sometimes good for the soul don’t you think?
Today I liked that it felt like summer. I also liked the fact they sprayed the concrete into our new pool today – progress! I liked that I managed to snag a Country Road dress I’ve loved today and it was on sale (reduced from $179 to $99).
Love your bed linen. That looks like a fantastic place to get a good night’s sleep. And yep, I love fresh, clean sheets too!
Yay for the pool!
I am reading The Still Point of a Turning World now.
Tay-Sachs is awful terrible, hideous, and devastating.
I love your bedding! How do you get away with such girly (in my partner’s opinion) colours?
