yellow teapot

i have been searching for ages for a vintage(ish) yellow teapot to add to my collection.

but with no luck.

then it dawned on me... etsy!

how cute are these ones (here and here).

just a thought

from quote book

witchery kids is just too cool

ok.

don't take this the wrong way anyone...

but if i had kids, this is what they'd be wearing.

absolutely chic and 100% adorable.

i'm the biggest fan of witchery as it is, now even more so.

might have to do some online shopping for my little people.

(nieces and nephews that is.)

happy blogiversary to me

365 days, 190 posts and over 7000 visitors ago i started my humble little blog.

it's been a fun little journey so far.

my blog is (or has turned into) a mixed bag of what I'm doing or designing, what i love or what i am inspired by.

and generated a LOT more interest then I ever thought it would!

i'd love to know what YOU enjoy about 'dear musketeer', dear reader.

so please don't be shy and leave me a comment.

happy blogging year ahead.

eggs eggs eggs eggs eggs eggs

i've been to spoilt with super fresh, free range, gorgeous fluorescent yellow, divinely delicious eggs in tassie.
having your own chooks (therefore ones own egg supply) is all the rage.
even among the suburbanites like sylv and mum.
christine takes the prize though.
she has 9 perfectly tame hens that lay eggs of all sizes.
(though the photo might suggest i'm not convinced of the tameness – thank goodness for ed's protective foot gear)
also she made me the best scrambled eggs for (2nd serving) lunch.
just like oma used to make – with a sprinkling of fresh parsley.
sigh.
now i'm back to the store bought, pale, overpriced kind.

while i'm kind of on the subject of walls...
