I'm back! Although this week has been a complete whirlwind. In fact I think I need another holiday just to get over it. I don't know why it's been so busy. I guess jet lag {I never ever have problems sleeping unless I have jet lag so when I'm wide awake at night and soo tired in the mornings it really throws me}, plus feeling a bit coldy probably something I picked up from the plane, unpacking, washing, getting back into exercise, having a lot to catch up on blog and email wise, a couple of trips into London, trying to secure some new deals plus moving house stress has all caught up with me. So I am very glad it's the weekend at last. And a Valentine's one at that! How is everyone??

I'm in love with Spring bulbs. So fresh, green and {some are} highly scented. They bring an excitement into the house, new beginnings after the new year, a hint that spring and then summer are truly on their way. I buy cut flowers year round, big bunches of tulips and daffs from the local florist or supermarket. But I remembered seeing potted bulbs, roots and all, in glass jars last year and decided that they would be a nice introduction back into gardening after what feels like a long Winter. {and also a good way to use up old diptyque jars, remember these two posts? here and here}

Do you remember this post from our wintry trip to Brighton last January?? It was such a lovely day and the gorgeous early sunset probably one of the only things to celebrate in the depths of Winter. It was forecast to be a beautiful weekend so we decided to nip down for the day again to visit my Brother.
