My, it's been quiet in here just over the last couple of days, the weather has been so good I wonder how much longer we will be needing the log fire.....but the faeries will help decide.
Really busy day yesterday so it's good to come in and relax to find croissants and fresh coffee for breakfast all waiting for me!
Hugs xxx

Keep the fire lit, ladies ! It's absolutely pouring down here and could do with a drying-out as I got rather wet walking back from church a bit earlier, sigh. A big change from yesterday afternoon when it actually felt warm and I gave the lawns their first cut of the year ...
I shall sneak a quick coffee before cracking on again x

I can't believe I've never found this place before! The door was open and I saw the lovely log fire. I did help myself to a small glass from that bottle of Martini over there, hope that was OK.
I haven't arrived empty handed. I have this bunch of daffodils from my garden which I will put in that vase on the side. Usually I like to leave flowers to grow naturally but I arrived home to find them flattened. Not sure if this afternoon's rain or next door's cat is to blame.
I have also bought this plate of goodies. In case you are not sure they are my first attempts at cupcakes. I haven't quite got the hang of doing the swirly bit on the top yet, just shut your eyes and they taste fine.

Hi Margaret,
It's a good job you came through this door and not in the 'Story Tellers Night' pub further down the forest track. There be some funny old goings on in there I tell thee........
There's a stormlamp on the table
Throwing shadows to the gable
And you swallow if your'e able
On a storyteller's night

Where did you find that picture,it looks like something from a Terry Pratchet novel

Hiya,
Well, you are close - it's the artwork for an album cover by Rodney Mathews.
Gotta love Pratchet tho' - His Discworld / Clarecraft pieces used to be made in the next village.
I have one of his 'Death with Delete Key' figures sat atop my monitor here :-)
