Don't you just love Autumn?

The leaves, the colours, wrapping up, wearing your boots again?

Well we've had a bumper crop of fruit this year, maybe something to do with all that rain?

Blackberries over the garden wall

Baked with custard

Stewed with apples from our tree

I had 30 bags in the freezer!!

Gooseberries from earlier in the year

It helps to have helpers

It's all about Orla

I never used to like retro...but now I do.

There's something about those geometric designs that I love.
Reminds me of Ed Emberley designs and Charlie Harper.

I have the Orla Kiely mugs now - a gift from my daughter

going along with the retro theme....vintage chicken salt and pepper shakers

Mum's Moira ware bread bin and storage jars

Then throw in a couple of tea towels, tins, an apron and oven gloves.....all gifts from my daughters

for the newly modelled kitchen

Custom made units from the Old Creamery in Yeovil

Plates Heritage and Veranda by Denby remind me my mum's plates form the 70s

More Orla Kiely shopping bags from Tesco.
