rainy days and reading.

A wet grey cloud hangs above my door step and waters the garden. The winter air chills my bones, so I feel as if most of these weeks have been spent cuddled up inside my room where it is toasty warm, drinking lemon, ginger and honey tea.

The two top photographs were taken during my midnight stroll with Jarryd, after we'd gorged ourselves silly on chilly chicken burgers and chips.
His mum has kindly lent me three books with fairy tales stories from England, Ireland and Japan. The illustrations are simply enchanting!
