The Specials

Just watched the specials in coventry. It was amazing! Proper wicked gig. Loads of great characters too. Keep it real skankers ...

A feminine touch

Nice to see a mother n baby in a piece of street art...

Food food food

Ok. It's come to my attention that this blog is mostly full of food. Maybe that's reflective of where i'm at right now or maybe its because food is one of life's many daily creative outlets. I prepare at least 3 meals a day, often more thanks to 2 small kids and the rest of the family. Food is survival, the most basic human need but it can also be the most indulgent, exciting or healing experience. Since we have to do so much of it, we might as well make it fun!

Word to The Art Tart

Gotta love bristols own Art Tart. This piece at the tobacco factory made me smile

My very blimming scrumpious pear tart tatin. If that aint art I dunno what is!

Apple art

In the garden pealing apples from our tree to make a big ol crumble. Was nice playing with the peel n making patterns in the sunshine.

Lovely messy painting

Ah, so lovely to get the paints out with the kids n get really messy. Not sure who had more fun, them or me!

Foraging

Just been walking in the woods on a seriously hot October day. The perfect place to be in a heat wave with little uns. Damp n cool n really beautiful. Collected loads of cobnuts and chestnuts too, yum.
