I’m no green thumb. I’ve neglected many plants in my time, even the succulent variety that I chose for their hardiness. I am getting better though. I realise now that they actually need watering (sometimes daily), sun, fertiliser and some attention to keep them mostly happy. With this newfound knowledge, I’ve created an edible container garden, just outside my back door on the deck and, it makes me so happy!

Que j’aime ta couleur café
Coffee and plants. I’m not sure if Serge would agree with me, but it could be the new coffee and cigarettes non?
I couldn’t resist the latest Urban Jungle Bloggers challenge, especially seeing that I’m lucky enough that my husband works for Nespresso, and we live and breath coffee in our house.
I had one of those moments the other day. You know the type, you pin something that takes you to an online store and you’re in awe of an impeccably curated shop, and I mean impeccably. Absolutely so much regard has gone into it. Nothing is mass produced, most of it one of a kind, and by reading about the owner, you get it and you realise that the store is a perfect representation of that person and their tastes. The Garden Edit, is that kind of store.
Happy New Year to you all! It’s crazy that this is the third time I’ve been able to write those words here on the blog. Where on earth has the time gone? When I look back on it, I can honestly say that it’s been time well spent. I’ve been doing something that I love and because of that, so many doors, opportunities and possibilities are opening up to me. I look to the future and it seems exciting, which is a good place to be.
Before most of you will be thrown into the final preparations of Christmas, I wanted to take this moment to wish you all a wonderful day. I hope that each of you take some time to unwind, read a good book and enjoy fun times with friends and family. There really is no better time to celebrate life than the week of Christmas to New Years. I love listening to everyone’s reflections of the past year and their hopes and dreams for the next, it really is quite magical.
