HOME ALONE


I have had a precious day at home, writing, cooking, gardening (not cleaning!) Just pulling up the odd weed when the fancy takes me, and thinking about all of the strawberries to come from my flowerful bed. The last two days have been heavenly, still and quiet, sunny and calm. A summer day to remember. What is this life, if full of care... My head is so full of my Betty brand. I am so excited about all of the new products we are developing. The textile range is not far away. My dreams are full of colour, the long and hard winter has taken it toll. It's time to break loose...and live a little

It is all very exciting


The sun is shinning, but it is still the weather for vests! A long walk this morning and time to think about the future. Betty is excited about her new website, which is almost ready. Gardening is of course on every one's mind, and to see new shoots appear is heart warming. We have planted cabbage and brocoli, carrots and parsnips, raddish and rocket. Tomatoes to come next. Tomatoes will be in grow bags, but covered with lovely old sacking covers, available from http://www.twyford-cookers.com/ all of this will soon be available from Betty's own website. Just a few more days.... Betty has been making bread like a mad thing, and soon to be picking salad leaves and tomatoes, it is all too exciting, I don't know how I can sleep at night. After a long and cruel recession, Betty is pleased think about the simple things in life, and plodding the long and winding road to a better lifexxx
