Hi Lucy,

you are never too old for anything!!!

I always wear dresses and skirts with jeans and I'm nearly 37! (nearly being the most important word there) especially at this time of the year plus the funkier the better. I think it would be an injustice 'NOT' too. Love to see a photo if you dare...

Have a love, love, lovely weekend,

ps. your Little Lady will love the dolly!

Loving your today too. So bright and beautiful, happy and uplifting. Have a wonderful weekend. xx

Lucy, your enthusiasm is infectious!

Wish wish wish that I could find primulas over here for 59 p, instead of $5.99. My collection could grow much more easily.

Cheers!

iF you're going to indulge in the gin/elderflower combo (and you MUST!!!)then it has to be Hendricks gin and Belvoir elderflower cordial - had this cocktail last year. And every friday night since...Mmm Mmmm.... Oooh! It's friday today!

(and your anemone's are gorgeous!)

[Potiron]

Am love loving your blog more and more every day!!!!!

Thank you for your sunshine (it's sunny here too today, but not for long)... my narcissi are all wilted now, should plant them somewhere in the garden for next spring....

Thank you for the anemones and the primulas (primevères in French)... can't wait for the renoncules to come out!!!!

Thanks again for the inspiration and good humouredness you transmit in these posts!!!

a bientot (see you soon)

If I ever need a bit of color I just have to pop on over to your blog. You're my fix in the morning.

Elderflower cordial must be a very British thing. I've never heard of it before I started following Brit blogs. I am SO CURIOUS about what it tastes like. I like anything that says "plenty of ice" and looks all frosty and condensation-y. Makes me think of summer!

[elizabeth of course]

This blog makes me want to pick up everything and move across the pond! Thanks so much for posting that recipe. I can see that gracing the table verrrrry soon!

Oh, I so agree. The sun is out and the daffs are starting to flower. It's too nice to do anything other than enjoy it. I treated myself to a primula yesterday too which now has it's own terracotta pot - although, I'm starting to think it might look cuter in the empty Bonne Maman jar from your Tesco magazine... Have a fab w/end. Cat x
