Why it's ok to indulge your creativity and not feel guilty

Creativity

a mid year pause, slow down and enjoy the roses

The beautiful month of June

Finally I found a way to answer the question "and what do you do?"

  • Gooseberries, yay or nay? . I can still remember clearly the first time I tasted a gooseberry. Aged 5 or 6, I would climb through a gap in the hedge to my neighbour’s garden. It was a wonderful garden, rows of soft fruit and the sweetest peas straight from the pod. But the gooseberries were a shock. . And for the record, I climbed through the hedge to play with my friend, not just to steal her fruit 😂. . I will poach these with plenty of sugar and fold into cream. What’s your favourite gooseberry recipe? . . . . #wholeheartedliving #eatprettythings #kinfolktable #gatherandfeast #artofslowliving #nestandcreate #visualstoryteller #moodybynature #mystoryoflight #shadowsandlight #gothictonic #chasingmoody #chiaroscuro #myseasonalstory #makelight #eleganceintheeveryday #thatvelvetfeeling #awhisperedbeauty
  • Is anyone else filled with that delicious end of term feeling? Even though I still have weeks of work ahead I still get caught up in that giddy end of term feeling and certainly my the days ahead will have a different rhythm. Less 9-5 and more 6-10 with the other hours snatched here and there. . My children are older now so my duties are mostly of the taxi variety but I still relish the extra time together and the laughter and life that will fill the house in the days ahead. . . . . . #mystoryoflight #inasoftlight #shadowsandlight #softtones_perfection #awhisperedbeauty #eleganceintheeveryday #beautyofstillmoments #heitermoments #thatvelvetfeeling #smallmomentsofcalm #pocketsofmyhome #daysofsmallthings #pilesofbooks #fromgardentovase #petalsandbottles #wildforflowers #lovely_squares_1 #gatherandcurate #natureinthehome #wherecalmlives
  • Summer you really are spoiling us this year. . Anyone else going to find it hard to stay indoors and work today? . I’ve transitioned into my summer self. A weekend spent living slowly. Long morning walks and afternoons spent sky gazing in the shade. Evenings around the garden table. Time moving oh so gently. . . . . #seasonspoetry #eleganceintheeveryday #awhisperedbeauty #distractionsandinspirations #thesimpleeveryday #thewildnesstonic #curated_nature #loveletterto #wholeheartedliving #moodcollectors #prettyengland #suffolklife #wildforflowers #smallpauses #flowersandotherstories
  • A watched pot never boils. . I swear I check my Dahlia growth several times every day. Inspecting the swelling buds and wishing upon each one. . All my willing is not about to hurry them one bit so in the meantime I must content myself with a photographic Dahlia memory. .

  • I’ve wanted to try one of these forever! . I know I should have been more patient and waited for the light and a better picture but I was just too darn excited about the fact that I entered Photoshop and didn’t break down in tears 😂. . Anyone else suffer from an unreasonable fear of Photoshop? . . . . . #cinemagraphsunday #myquietbeauty #creativelives #movingstill #cinemagraph #hurrayforplay #cupoftheday #creative_cups #mystory_cups #cupsinframes #onequietcup #daysofsmallthings #visualstoryteller #eleganceintheeveryday #smallpauses #creativestory
