With an aching tooth and my mind (and tongue) obsessed with it and everything that will have to be done with it I thought I better focus on some good this afternoon. Here’s some things to like…
: Clove oil. Who would have thought? Seems so medieval
: Roses inside and out, gorgeous things that they are
: Speaking of out, the garden is going gang busters. Especially all those trees we planted last year
: Harper is right, trees are awesome
: Star jasmine is getting ready to bloom…another week and we will be there.
: Little whimsy around the house always brings a smile to my face.
: I rediscovered a flip book that was given to Daisy when she was a baby…the girls love it.
: Hydrangeas are going mad outside too in all this hot weather (I did get a few burnt leaves). I love the plain leaves inside for a burst of greenery
: Also loving the kangaroo paws that I picked from Mrs Munro’s farm last week on the kitchen bench
: Brand spanking new Frankie 4 shoes (gifted) to me will always bring a smile to my face. These are called Belinda and I cannot wait to get them on my trotters.
: Piles of fresh washing to be put away…especially not sheets (no, I do not iron them, life is too short)
: White geraniums are my fave
: As is the succulent wreath that I made last year that is still going strong
: Speaking of things made…I was sent a Goodie Box from Blank Goods filled with the most gorgeous selection of things to make. Maybe with the kids, maybe just by myself. Great Christmas present (you can get a subscription)
What are you liking this Monday afternoon?
This was so lovely to see all the thing your liking. I have been following you for awhile now and I have be really taken with your post as of late. This one was no different. I am also liking clean washing.
Thanks Pol! Clean washing is SO much better than dirty washing!
all lovely thankyou beth!
I knew that about cloves but forgot to say!
hope it is feeling a bit better now! … not nice!
just found some blue and white plates I forgot I had! winning!
I love your garden and I love white geraniums! … I have to repot mine!
one job! me thinks!
lol m:)X
I hope it gets better soon – back to see my friend the dentist on Wednesday…hope I can last until then 🙁
I like the look of that goodie box!
Also – leaves can burn? Who the fuck knew!
Oh the things I have taught you.
With the recent world events, it is refreshing to come to your blog and be reminded that life goes on, we must go on and make the most of it while we can, and we are so lucky to live where we live and have access to all we do: great communities is one of them, safe places to live.
Thanks, you remind me to focus on family and the life around me.
And yes, clove oil is also good for mould removal too…( Check out Shannon lush (you probably already know that..)
I had forgotten about that – will come in handy once this bloody tooth ache is gone I hope! Thanks Jenni x
Oil of cloves, great stuff. A few drops into water and wiped over window frames etc stops mould growing. A problem in our old house during winter. I love the smell too, reminds me of christmas!
I forgot it did that too!
Oh what a great idea Bells I have a south facing house and the window on the balcony can grow moss like a little rainforest! Must get that clove oil happening….
Loving those Belindas!!!
Oh man me too! And a day after wearing them all day I can confirm they are VERY comfy!
Love this post! 🙂
Love geraniums! (pink is my fave)
Love the goodie box!
Love the shoes! (off to shop now)
Thanks EJ – the shoes are VERY comfy!
