the seasons are changing & i am finding myself full of energy & ready to embrace the fresh air of Autumn...
living on the beaches of australia -seasons were almost non-existent...
not that i'm complaining about a constant temperature of very hot, hot, warm, not so warm & then chilly for 10 weeks!
but...since moving to England almost 3 1/2 years ago, one aspect that i have delighted in is the change from one season to the next...
the change in colours of our village...
the change of produce available...not mass-produced supermarket produce- but farmers market, local produce...
the change in one's step on a blustery walk to school...
long warm boots, scarves & layering...
i'm having a lovely day sewing as the weather whirls past my sewing room windows...
snug inside, drinking gallons of tea & creating cushions for a delightfully gorgeous new shop opening this week in the next village...
called lovely ducks & owned by a very cool dressing mother at school- you know the old battered converse/skinny jeans kinda school mama...i'm thinking it's going to be a wonderful place to shop...
local goods made by local women...
the opening is tomorrow night so i'll be snapping some pickies for you all...
till then...embrace your seasons whether you are up here & rushing into Autumn...
or down there & slipping into spring...
love me in long boots & my new leopard print scarf...
