Blue Monday

So its 'Blue Monday'...since 2005 some travel company has declared a day mid-Jan as the most depressing day of the year...lovely hey?

I was housebound for the fourth day in a row today - snow plus prego lady doesn't go well together and my darling hubs has been insanely protective of me and 'the bump' while the white stuff is around.

So working from home with lots of hot chocolate and marshmallows was my destiny today - not the worst way to spend the most depressing day of the year!

Sorry for the crap phone pic - digging out the fancy camera for this shot was just never going to happen.

the start

I’ve always been a bit of a ‘creative’ type – whether it was crafting, or painting, cooking or baking, making things put me in my happy place.

So as I set up a home (nesting?), navigate the crafting scene in London, teach myself the ins and outs of British cuisine and hold on to my Canadian roots – I thought I’d document the good ideas (and the bad), the yummy things (and the gross ones) and share the story of me settling in this gorgeous city.

I have no idea where this will take me - but I hope to make some pretty things, discover some fantastic places and eat some delicious food along the way.
