gardening Orla Kiely

Ground in the garden

I have a poorly boyfriend who has the flu but that hasn’t stopped us from shopping at Exmouth Market this afternoon.

I was absolutely horrified to read that Hazel Blears has an Orla Kiely handbag. Orla Kiely is my favourite designer and I have enough handbags and accessories to wear something different every day for a month. How could a politician such as Hazel Blears have the good taste to own such a bag? Apparently Labour are worried that they haven’t addressed the huge divide between rich and poor in this country since they’ve been in control, illustrated in the paper today by the choice of female Labour MPs handbags. Perhaps it’s time to put a few on ebay…

And my new books have arrived from Amazon, so I have Simple Sewing with a French Twist, Sublime Stitching and Lotta Jansdotter simple sewing to read this weekend. I bet my family are looking forward to their Christmas presents!

And we picked up some ground coffee from Starbucks to aid our composter. Normally I give Starbucks a wide berth but I couldn’t resist recycling old coffee to help my composting!
