What an honour! Thank-you so very much Polly of Angels in My Garden for awarding me not one but three awards! I gladly accept all three awards. Polly has a great homemaking blog that I'm sure you will enjoy as much as I do. Please take a moment to stop by Polly's blog to say hi.

- I love cooking with good ingredients!
- I grow herbs, vegetables and fruit in raised beds using the square food gardening method combined with companion planting.
- One of my favourite fair weather activities is fishing.
- I am a shoe-aholic! I'm not kidding here having several pairs still with price tags an my collection numbers about 55 pairs.
- Photoshop® is my favourite photo editing software.
