Off on the tram to the Emmental this afternoon. I love those days the the skies are blue and you can see all the way to the Alps.

I’m not a fan of fit of these masks at all but at least with the sun shining I have a good excuse to wear my sunglasses which stops them creeping up to my eyes 🙄😎

I’ve been really wanting to try out watercolour

I’ve been really wanting to try out watercolour painting since @bethanne.whitearbor started posting her her Art Therapy Thursday classes back in April. Today I finally took the plunge and I’m so glad I did. I’ve never really painted before so I’m definitely in the complete novice category but I’m more than delighted with my first few attempts and I’m definitely going to work my way through Bethanne’s classes and just learn as I go.

After a break of just over three and a half months

After a break of just over three and a half months the daily commute is back, although for now I’m only going to do it once a week.

The boys came home from school and got straight in

The boys came home from school and got straight into the pool which meant I had to drop what I was doing and head out into the garden to supervise.
I have decided that instead of starting a new mini EPP project my “summer sewing” will be to finally finish this project.
Yes I know this is crochet but project this will be a fusion of crochet and EPP so I think it counts.

Summer is definitely here, the holidays start next

Summer is definitely here, the holidays start next weekend and as long as the weather holds this is where I’ll be for the foreseeable. We’ve cancelled all our usual holiday plans and set up for a holiday at home because we definitely won’t be joining the hordes and masses at the lake or the outdoor pools.
Today I’ve got my crochet out but as I finally have some plans for a new EPP mini project it hopefully it won’t be long before this is my summer sit and sew spot.

These beauties are blooming just outside my front

These beauties are blooming just outside my front door and I love that every time I leave the house or walk past I get greeted by their beautiful scent.
