scenes from a christmas

Lovely days blurring into one, lots of delicious food, jollity and bursts of sunshine, activity and blessed inactivity.













After watching Grey Gardens (the hbo version) on Christmas Day, I have a full-scale obsession blooming. Drew was fabulous as Little Edie.



It made me very happy, curling up with a glass of port, the fire licking away in the grate as the story unfurled. And the clothes! Ah, the clothes! The soundtrack is wonderful too, we've been listening to it nonstop since.



We're off for a couple of days now visiting family. Hope you've all had a jewel-bright Christmas.

Hello sweet girl. Such lovely family images, you look like you've had a wonderful Christmas too. And what a year we have had! I never expected to make such amazing connections with people through blogging, but I'm very, very pleased I have. Wishing you a magical time with your family and a very special and happy year to come. Lots of love, Laura
