Decisions decisions! I bought a clearfile folder for my cut outs, but never remember to actually use it, and so my magazine cuttings end up being stashed here there and all over the place, but never in the RIGHT place when I want them. Doh!<br /><br />I LOVE your garden, oh my goodness! It makes me think of all the possibilities that could be done with our section if we were to buy our rental as the landlady has offered. Hmm... Except, as I've likely mentioned before, I am useless at gardening. My mum's an avid gardener though... ;)<br /><br />Bread and butter pudding - one of my favourites! That and sago pud, rice pud, and golden syrup steamed pud. Actually, any pudding goes easily into my tum.... Nom! Might borrow a page from your inspiration and make some tomorrow. :)Callie @ infinitemonkey.co.nzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09646400786600466753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2026836570304833522.post-35185484445557351712012-10-24T19:41:29.753+13:002012-10-24T19:41:29.753+13:00Hello Catherine - gosh been away for the day and m...Hello Catherine - gosh been away for the day and missed a post - what a treat to catch up at last. Yes I too love the rainbows, the blossom flowers, the granny bonnets - ahh, all the signs of spring after such a wet cold winter - how wonderful!! Your pot of pansies still look so lovely bobbing their little heads.<br /> I am loving your scrapbooks/journals - I would choose all the same pictures to cut out. I am sure I too have always loved the same things - I think it just took me quite awhile to find my "thing" - I always knew that somehow vintage things made me feel "at home" but I was confused for a good many years :-)<br />Thankyou for a beautiful post - much love/hugs, Julie Xox Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08301647145550214950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2026836570304833522.post-16443645411709548502012-10-23T13:30:52.765+13:002012-10-23T13:30:52.765+13:00I love it that we both are crazy about the Minnute...I love it that we both are crazy about the Minnute's music! I have been listening to it over and over again. My students like it, too!<br />Yes, SMASH is FUN and your old journals look like my journals. I have always loved the same things, too! Dolls, checks, polka dots, flowers, RED, PINK, paper and stickers, colorful books and on and on and on!<br />I like that little weather house. I've never seen one.<br />Your blossom showers are super lovely! We have golden leaf showers now.<br />Love to you, wonderful one.

Here Smash is a brand of packet mashed potato, and the TV ad that I grew up with had little robots alien things with metallic voices. Quite different connotation!! Give me a lesson on Pinterest- I can't get it at all! I'll pop over one day soon with something freshly baked and you can brew some tea! The Willows will be popping over very soon- they go to their last Australian host next week and then you are the grand finale before they return home to the States. No pressure!! Gosh, is it Spring there? Did I miss Winter completely? Do you do Winter?? They left home in Autumn, and had Winter in America, Spring here, Summer in England and France, and then flew straight back into Spring; so from you they'll go from Spring straight into Winter. Wow, but the world is a fabulous thing! You are a fabulous thing xxmagsmcchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17278148796772565928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2026836570304833522.post-84354858679199947592012-10-23T01:33:58.665+13:002012-10-23T01:33:58.665+13:00Hello Catherine,

I think my older Brothers and Sisters must have played with it a bit too much because it didn't pop out according to the weather. Thanks so much for the memories. I will have to ask Mum what happened to it.<br /><br />Happy days.<br />Bev.xoxoBev Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01779873950474515819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2026836570304833522.post-40775955745998742712012-10-23T00:33:15.994+13:002012-10-23T00:33:15.994+13:00Your garden is just gorgeous.
