daily musings of a vintage addict * I am totally obsessed with all things vintage * trying to keep up with my past...and sometimes ordinary everyday life

My Photo
Name:
Location: Katoomba, NSW, Australia

here I am in a little cottage that evokes the energies of my ancestral lands - a cottage on the moors of Cornwall, or on the cliff tops of Ireland or Scotland. It has a hearth. I am a hedge witch {of sorts}. I wear upcycled clothes, patchouli oil and Redback boots. I am a gypsy; an eccentric and a mystic [I often live with a foot in two worlds]. I serve my guests, tea from an old silver teapot. I love Vervain, yarrow, chamomile & mint. Star watcher and Moon gazer. story cloth weaver. keeper of family dreams and wishes. good friend and creator of life. herbal tea drinker and potion maker.

Plan ahead and dream of all the beautiful things that life has to offer

housekeeping ~ June 27

another lovely wet and misty day today ~ cleaned the bathrooms, changed the sheets and tried to get the verandah tidied * it is so cold out though, not pleasant to be out trying to sweep cobwebs down ~ spiders lace my grandmas use to call it.
I usually buy my weekly fruit & vegetables at the supermarket but today I went into a little local fruit shop, only small and not a large variety but it was so quaint..all the little pears in a basket and lots of organic produce. I bought some wonderful kipfler potatoes for dinner and a few of the pears that looked so cute * they are now sitting in a gorgeous pressed glass stand looking delightful. I often do that ~ buy fruit to decorate with ~ it gives the home an abundant look * well I think so!
then this afternoon, I snuggled under a crochet blanket and read for an hour.

Spiders lace ~ oh my ~ I will never call them cobwebs again!
Your pears sound just divine on display like that...I love simple food presented so beautifully, very abundant and beautiful indeed.
Today my life was spent simply and happily at home cleaning and refreshing my surroundings, and I was appreciating the joy of simple abundance in my Monday chores, when unexpectedly I received a delightful teeny brown*paper*parcel tied up in string which topped off my day! I sat on my deck in the warmth of the winter sun and was warmed by your friendship and kindness ~ Thank You my friend.
