Bathtime for my youngest daughter is a nightly ritual. Sometimes a happy time with lots of chuckles and sometimes if tiredness has gotten hold not so jolly; but hopefully an enjoyable end to her day and mine none the less.

Same tulips as Fridays post, but somewhat 'stylised'! Isn't it strange that years of technology has given us crystal clear and sharp photography, and now the app market is floaded with ways of making your image look as if it were taken with a roll of film in the 1970's!? I for one am loving the look, and will be experimenting in future posts!

I love all flowers, but tulips are a firm favourite at the moment, especially when they open out like this. Have a good weekend.

Anyone who knows me will appreciate I have a love of colour. And after what has been too many days of grey skies overhead I thought a posting of brightness was called for!

My thoughts are turning to planning an outfit for my friends up and coming black and white themed birthday party. What a great idea and I think this bag will fit the brief.

I liked the colour combination of these two ingredients, also the perfect addition to avocado to make great guacamole!

I am loving these new spring colour combinations. Winter, I am so over you now and ready for a change of season...

A technical blip on broadband meant no post yesterday, back today and cooking a hearty tea on a wet and dreary day, a splash of golden orange ready for the oven.  Have a good weekend.

Although todays temperature is several degrees higher, I couldn't resist another cold post!

I think I will join my good friend and fellow blogger Gwendoline Daisy www.gwendolinedaisy.blogspot.co.uk  with some frosty themed posts...

The Campbells tower has been a King's Lynn landmark for over 50 years, and yesterday it was no more.  We went to watch the demolition and however dramatic it was I couldn't help but think... quite a sad day really, all in the name of progress and redevelopment.

A bonus of having frosty starts to the day is seeing such a beautiful sunset the night before; just stunning.  Have a great weekend.

It seems that alot of time in my day is now taken up with activities such as this!

Our eldest daughter decided on a 'shrek' themed birthday tea for her Dad last night, so it was green napkins, balloons and streamers all round!

The Great British Bake Off has alot to answer for - without it I don't think I would have pictures of macaroons on my kitchen wall, pastel coloured cake tins stacked on my dresser or a wealth of lovely cookery books inspiring me to create this for my husbands birthday today!

Aren't these just the sweetest little boots, just made for the sweetest little feet!

After the past twelve days I think I deserve one of these!  Hope you enjoyed the shots as much as I did creating them, thanks must go to my family for their help and input!  Enjoy the weekend.
