I am still feeling a little overwhelmed with pleasure by the bounty of having chickens in the back yard. They are so cute and lovable, and the eggs.....words cannot do them justice :-)
Double yolker again.

Which came first? A tale of 2 chicks.
I wanted some chickens...
I sent my minions out into the world. |
evidence that if you want something badly enough, someone will provide! |
I was happy :-) |
Babs (the small Pekin) and Woosywoo settled into their new home (after it was made clear to me that they could no longer live in the house). |
The girls grew and we put a second story on the chick house. |
Free rangin' |

Some shelves of my life...
A recent visitor to my house commented that 'nothing matches'. I had to acknowledge that this was true, indeed that things matching hasn't been a guiding principle when building my environment.
I have come to realise over time that I am attracted to objects from the late 1970s and early 80s. I am not sure where this comes from, except that I was a young adult at that time and at the first time in my life had some control over and interest in the things I lived with. There are also some aspects of living itself that has not changed since the 70s. For instance I have never used tea bags, always leaves and a pot.
Many of the items in these pictures have been sourced in 'op' shops! Best way to shop :-)

1970's? |
The pottery container actually harks from the 50s in England, it originally contained marmalade. |
These really are my cups and glasses! There is no other cupboard with a neater, more orderly store of this stuff. |
