I Spy. What did she Buy?

I Spy, what did she buy? She was off again last weekend, she is always going away and coming back with more than she left with! After lots of hugs and kisses on my nose (which I love!) and a peck on a cheek for Daddy, as it should be, she zoomed off to the Shepton Mallet Fair, which she tells me was great if not a bit wet around the edges. After two days of staring out of the window she at last reappeared staggering up the path with lots of packages I had not seen before.

One of them was this table which she bought to sell but I said it would look nice in the sitting room so she gave it a try and agreed with me.

She also got this dinky little set of drawers, which she spent far to long cooing over instead of making a fuss of me!



Other little things that I totally ignored to her disgust to sell in Christines shop, she just keeps saying sweeeeeet.

She has been busy this week, having been inspired at last to get on with some work she came up with this painting, I think it should have been My heart is like a barking Dog but hey I suppose bird sounds better.

They are taking me here this afternoon so I can run, run, run to my hearts content, she loves me so much!

But till we go I think I will just cary on snoozing. As soon as I hear that word 'Beach' I'll be in the car nose to the window.

Your puppy is adorable! And look at all your marvelous finds! I have to tell you that the pink background paper reminds me very much of my very first long formal dress, which I had made for a friends fancy 16th birthday party. I need to go find a picture of that.

Oh dear. It must be dreadful having a shop, as you only buy what YOU really love! It does look a gorgeous table though. I don't blame you for keeping it yourself. Did I tell you that I once made a special journey from St Ives to Porthscatho just to vivit your shop (you had been featured in a magazine at that time). Sadly, you were closed - so I could only press my nose up at the window - the hubby was very relieved though! xxx

Autumn Mist said...

Hi again, meant also to say I like your new painting. I would never think to put a black bird on a black background but somehow you make it work. You are very clever with ideas you must do more! Sara xx
