Easter snow & a turkey? No..

It's now officially spring & I watched the snow falling through my chocolate hand-printed window this morning..it's not good..yet still one of my neighbours takes her kids to school in her gas-guzzler..it's 120 yards away! She also claims that recycling is for hippies..in fact, I'd go as far to say that she is to our village what the USA is to the rest of the world..



Still, the sun is shining now & the wind has dropped..I've finished illustrations no.7 & 8 so only 4 to go..

I opened the shop for a few hours today..I had to, to pay for these..

..I know..they're bizarre..but my old 20 hole doc martens have finally split after 4 years of constant wear and wet socks annoy me more than anything else ever..especially when it takes so long to get to them..
Talking of bizarre..Easter..what is it?..like Christmas really..a load of commercial bloody nonsense..I send a card to my Mum & my Dad..oh, & my brothers..but only because they're far away..not at Easter though..I usually buy 1 extravagant egg for me & the old man to share, the evil cow fruit & veg pushing mother that I am..my kids get them from all directions..& usually for a week or two afterwards as we live away from lots of friends & family..so they don't need any from us..I despise commercialism almost as much as wet socks..

I'm glad I'm not a turkey right now..not because I'm afraid of dying..just the fear of knowing about the sage & onion thing..
We have duck..

Happy long weekend x
