ello there cable knitted jumper of dreams! And also, hey everybody else. We're creeping up to Halloween (although confession, I have been watching Christmas films) and sweater weather has firmly planted itself here. Every year, my favourite chunky knits come out from storage and a few new ones inevitably find their way into my wardrobe too. I've partnered up with LA based online retailer Tobi on ...

New on the Blog
where have I been?
here have I been? This has been the longest blogging break I've ever taken in the history of this blog's existence. It wasn't intentional (I've been battling a stomach bug and couldn't even bear to look at my laptop) but the longer I was away from it, the more it became normal.

As we ... Read the Post
A Dutch Baby Pancake with Apple Cinnamon Compote

Maaaaybe a big old giant pancake. Specifically, a looks-so-good-it-can't-be-simple Dutch Baby pancake. Why not? It's the weekend. The wishy washy weather outside makes me feel like the leaves will start to turn ... Read the Post
Our Flat Renovation | The New Kitchen
his is a long overdue renovation update, but here we go, a year later, I can finally show you what the new kitchen looks like. The last update I made was this sneaky peek in the new year 8 months ago. Since then, we have finished the back garden, repaired the front windows, installed shutters, replaced the old back door, painted the side patio decking, and oh yeah, made the spare room a guest ...
