      Scavenger hunt

      2nd March 

      I should be working and have already posted today yet what am I doing... reading other people's gorgeous blogs, being inspired yet sitting here not actually achieving today's objectives.  Are you with me, does this happen to you?  I seem to be in go slow mood and only want to do what I want to do, which is have fun, yet am feeling very guilty about it!  So instead of doing what I should, I have been scavenging through my most recent photographs  to join in with a link up called Scavenger hunt.  I am going to join in next month and actually take my camera out during the next four weeks with the words that I have to scavenger... sounds fun, don't you think.  If you want to have a go, click on the link at the bottom of the page to find this months list.

      Flowers

      We had a deep frost this week, so this was an easy one for me


      Love

      My daughter and her cat,
      where she goes the cat follows.

      This week I was teaching division

      Something beautiful

      Sunrise on a frosty morning and our cat

      Favourite colour

      This was hard for me to choose as I have so
      many, but right here are two of them

      Bird

      This is not my photograph, and I apologise but
      could not find the source.  I chose this
      bird as the inspiration for the colours of
      the above crochet ring I made.  Isn't nature just wonderful.

      On the road

      Red buses and London

      Tap

      I have not taken a picture of the bathroom before! Notice I have hearts here too


      Price

      Took this photograph to show my husband,
      he wanted mini colanders so we could each
      have our own servings of peas on the plate, what fun! 
      Haven't actually bought them yet...

      Heart

      Rather than bore you with my homemade
      addiction to making hearts as I have in the past,
      here are some of my favourite hooks in our house.

      Corner of my home

      My haven...

      Whatever you want...

      I often blog recipes, so felt I needed to
      add some food,
      look at our tapas plates, such colour.
       
      I had such fun gathering these photographs, hope you enjoyed them.  Do follow the link below to see what others have posted on the same theme.  Cannot wait to do this in March with the list before I go out scavenging...
       
       
      ♥  Hope you have a good week and I'll try to settle down to work and not bombard you further

      8. I'd love to sit in your corner. Looks so warm and comforting.

      12. Yum, that Tapas looks gorgeous. Single portion pea servings... not just a pile on the side of the plate?

        1. I know love the idea of single portions and not just loose on the mate. Very decadent and very first world stuff but it would be fun...
