Market buys





The Hound went to market.

1.He has returned with magnolia branches,
2.Indoor grass - it says on the pot a delicious snack for cats (?) he is using it as bait. Cats a delicious snack for Hounds.
3.Double tulips the colour of ice cream
4.and a window shot. Which explains why i don't often photograph the window too much reflection.

and somebody asked about the rose, it is Quicksand, we have been using it for years, and it is still popular, pink without being too pink. I think i have said that to a lot of brides today.

and the book is out in the summer, it is a how-to, a ramble, some recipes, a lot of The Hound, and some physics.

Have a wonderful weekend.

Tulips... a sure sign that spring is on it's way... although on this cold, cold day in New Jersey (-17c), it seems a long way off! Lovely pictures! Lx

The book sounds fab, flowery how-to or foodie how-to?... or maybe both, how intriguing!

Love the bulbs in glass bottles/jars, do they last a long time like that? Would love to try it.

Reflections or not, your windows are well worth photographing.

Lovely window, car reflection or not.

The Hound may have a long wait for prey - I've never met a cat yet that showed any interest in cat grass. Tulips, on the other hand, are Scooter's very favourite.....

Cannot wait for the book. Loving the magnolia branches. I have magnolia branches too as inspired by Miss P but mine are hacked from the magnolia tree in the garden.

In other news I have lost the feeling in my shoulders after doing a Davina fitness DVD and so intend on spending the day watching old films on television. Hooray for sundays.

Happy weekend all x x
