A homemade life





I stayed up much too late last night reading this beautiful book: A Homemade Life by Molly Wizenberg. She is the creator of the wonderful blog orangette.
She is a very talented writer and mixes her beautiful words with tummy rumble inducing recipes. To top it off the amazing Camilla Engman created illustrations for each chapter. My only warning would be to bring milk and cookies to bed with you to deal with the cravings it creates!
Also, my beautiful picture from Jon Carling arrived here while I was on holiday, it is staying in the plastic wrapping until I can get a suitable frame. I think it is perfect. Plus, he sent a collection of other goodies to lucky little me. I will shoot them one day to share with you.
Check out his other work here.

my first visit and i loved it, will make me a big coffee tomorrow when the baby has his day nap and have a good read through your archives. I love the feel of your words and the works just glimpsed today. So glad I can pop back again. Blogland is a happy place when I find a new blog to connect with. ;)
