Post Comment Love 7-9 January

January 7, 2022

Happy New Year and welcome to the first #PoCoLo of the year - a friendly linky which I co-host with Suzanne, where you can link any post published in the last week. We know you’ll find some great posts to read, and maybe some new-to-you blogs too, so do pop over and visit some of the posts linked and share some of that love.

I had a good break - and a complete break - only going back to work earlier this week for a couple of days before taking some more time off to help move MOH’s mum. That also means I may not see your post til after the weekend as the broadband in one property is expected to be off, and not yet on at the new one. Frustrating for many reasons, but if that’s how it is, that’s how it is.

Sorting through things is catching though I think, as even at home I’ve been sorting through things mostly in our kitchen. I’d spotted @orgjenise’s challenge on Instagram, and was tempted. When I saw the first prompt was food, I knew that I should be in as I know I have some lurkers at the back of my cupboards. And so I was in, and I’ve shared more on my blog this week too.

PENS RELOCATED FROM THE KITCHEN DRAWER TO SOMEWHERE MUCH MORE USEFUL

Welcome to this week’s #PoCoLo - a friendly linky which I co-host with Suzanne, where you can link any post published in the last week. We know you’ll find some great posts to read, and maybe some new-to-you blogs too, so do pop over and visit some of the posts linked and share some of that love. If you were here last week it was great to have you along, if you’re new here this week we’re pleased you’re here.

This is the last link up of the year, we’ll be back on 7 January.

Thank you for joining us this year, we really appreciate having you sharing your posts and commenting on others that have linked up too. Both Suzanne and I wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, and we very much hope you will be back to join us in January.

This week my photo is of the fatsia which is in flower in our garden. One of these days I’ll use one of the many pictures I have of this as a Christmas card - it’s not this year though!

Post Comment Love 10-12 December

December 10, 2021

I said last week was mundane, this week with Omicron marching on it’s been far from that and more reminiscent of the crazy weeks in 2020. But it isn’t a lockdown, this time we’re calling it Plan B with the increased restrictions. Hospitality remains open, Christmas parties can go ahead but there’s a work from home order in place. My workplace has sensibly postponed our Christmas party, and those that can (including me) will be once again working from home. Let’s hope this really does what is planned, and that everyone does what they can to stay safe.

This week I’m sharing a photo from my visit to the Knitting & Stitching Show - and unbelievably all of these delicate flowers are stitched. This Floating Garden is by Amanda McCavour who uses a sewing machine to create thread drawings. Then by sewing into fabric that dissolves in water, she creates this magic - I’m constantly amazed at the inventiveness and craftsmanship.
