Do you remember when I spoke about the need to get a little organised? Well I was forced to after horrible little pantry moths suddenly appeared everywhere. I tell you, I felt terrible to throw so much food away – never again! So I took my cue and finally bought loads of le parfait jars in different sizes and got organised.
Welcome to April! Did you have a lovely Easter weekend? Over this side of the world, we’re lucky enough to have Easter Monday as a public holiday also so we get a long four-day weekend. Traditionally everyone goes away for the four days but we chose to hang out together at home and just enjoy each other’s company. Our family is also celebrating Guillaume’s birthday today so it’s a double celebration for us.
I’ve always been notoriously bad at keeping my windows clean. I could sit down at the kitchen table to have a cup of tea and stare through the dirty smudges out into the garden and remind myself each time that they need cleaning before I’d actually do something about it weeks later. When I moved into my house, the previous tenant left a bottle of Premium Glass Polish by Murchison Hume behind. It was a while before I picked it up; it looked so luxurious sitting in my cupboard. Finally I gave it a go and somehow cleaning the window didn’t seem like such a chore, it was quite pleasurable after all. Am I a victim of marketing? Perhaps, but at least my windows are now (usually) clean.
On Friday night I was having a chat with a friend who told me that he really loves reading my blog and all of the gorgeous things showcased and then with a big sigh, said that a lot of them are so out of reach for him.
