Autumn is my favourite season. I can finally wear my favourite jumpers, watch the leaves changing colour on our daily walks, and enjoy the delicious autumnal smells. The weather was gorgeous yesterday but I know it will be getting cooler and fresher any day now. Autumn is a fun season to craft with the kids….

Autumn is my favourite month and I have been unpacking my jumpers and boots with glee. We went blackberry picking yesterday and I am enjoying planning filling Autumnal dishes to feed my little family. At this…
This week sees us going back to school and my thoughts are already turning to all the fun things that Autumn in London brings. We love living in London and are spoilt for choice with autumnal things to see and do. This autumn we are really looking forward to visiting a pumpkin patch. I know…
I don’t know about you, but have you noticed the evenings getting darker earlier? The sun is still warm but when it goes down you notice how chilly it gets. We certainly felt Autumnal when we were camping last week, but we made the most of it (and came home with a stash of blackberries!)….

I’m the first to admit I’m not a great gardener but the one thing we do have is a good supply of lavender. It’s one of my favourite plants and makes the garden smell gorgeous. It has a very pretty flower but what do you do with it once it’s flowered and over for the…
