I just want to introduce my new "Today I Love" tumblr blog.

It's wednesday, let's discus my sunroom floor.

Good news, for those interested in my floor, we've finally found someone who can fix our problem without spending too much money and without having to take the whole sunroom down. He'll be fixing it next week and after that I can start decorating.

At last!

Now I'm quite giddy about decorating this room because I've been looking at that horrible floor for too long now, disliking it but appreciating the room itself more and more. It always has been such a non-room to me as it is really oddly shaped and an extension to the house that doesn't really fit. But over time it has become quite a lovely extension of the kitchen and I find myself hanging bits and pieces on the walls. My birds are already up there and now I've hung this artwork by Geninne up there to. It's going to be my bird room, or nature room. But also a good room to photograph in as the light is quite something.

Will post pictures when the room is done.

When the room is done ... sigh ... that sounds like music to my ears.

Since March 2009 I've noticed that sales have dropped and that has all to do with the financial crisis we're all currently in. Because of the uncertainty I've been a bit careful with buying stock and because of that shipping has been a bit slower. You've all been rock stars for not complaining, mailing or being impatient. I think I have the best costumers ever. Thank you again.

I've noticed that sales have gone up a bit again and I do believe that now is the time not to hold your money but to spend. If we all say things are better, they will be.

To reward, and to pamper a bit in these weary times, I'd like to give a book away to one of you. You can pick between one of the three new titles all you have to do is leave a comment and tell me which one you'd pick.

London Ateliers

San Francisco Kitchens

or Appartements de filles à Paris.

I'll draw a winner in a week, Wednesday June 17th, and make sure to put in some lovely other bits and pieces.

I also want to say thank you to all the lovely people who have been supporting and promoting my shop.

Now the weather is so nice we've moved from working indoors to outdoors. We are planting a garden from scratch. Only the trees were here and probably have been for the past 113 years.

I've started a tumblr blog for inspiration.

I just want to tell you about what's going with the house and me and the garden and the mess and the really filthy cat, who's turning my bedding black right this second. We're fine, all is fine and 8 months after we've started this project we're still married and quite happy with one another, we still don't want a baby, I still want a dog, Bo still doesn't - we'll have rabbits instead and next year, when the back garden is done, we'll have chicken. We thought we have done so little but when one of my mum's friends told me how impressed he is by how much work we've done and quoted this amazing line I'm going to tell everyone because it's so good; "you've done an awful lot of work but because you still have to do an awful lot of work it seems you haven't done nothing" Brilliant! This man is brilliant and I'll start to phone him weekly for words of wisdom. Last night they cleaned up the whole front garden and now I have to decide what to do with it, the hard task. We have a fantastic working kitchen and all my pots and pans and things are in place an already cooked some delicious meals. only we need doors, quite a lot of them. The kitchen cupboard, Bo made, needs doors and the toilet needs a door. Also the kitchen doors need to be fixed and I have to make curtains When all that is done my kitchen will be revealed on an amazing website for the first time. I'm really excited!

PS: click on the image and it will take you to Flickr where most questions will or are be answered.

For the past six months I have been crocheting afghans (I haven't finished) and these pillows.

They've become my absolute favorite thing to crochet as I can mix all kind of colors and because they are done in no time. They've actually become an addiction and most of my friends own one or two because I just kept making them, and still do. So I've decided to sell some in my abandoned Etsy shop.

I'll be adding 7 or 8 pillows on Tuesday April 21st to the Esty shop.

My other shop, the bookshop, is back to cheaper prices. I've been begging Paumes to let me decide my own retail price and not use the one that most shops are using. And they are allowing me to set my own price again - yay!! To celebrate this fantastic news (because I was about to close shop) I give all readers of my blog a 5% discount. Use code sfkitchens in the shopping basket.

On your way out don't forget to order the fabulous new book San Francisco Kitchens.

It's good to have my mum over as she reminds me of all the holidays where I'm free to go a bit decoration crazy. Christmas I remember, as it's my favorite time of the year, but all the other catholic holidays I forget. It's also because supermarkets and stores start selling Easter stuff in February. To me Easter starts when there are chocolate eggs for sale.

So I had to do some last minute decorating as my brother and his girlfriend (hello Themar and Suzanne) will be here for Easter brunch on Sunday. Now our kitchen is almost complete (spot the messy fireplace and oh, there's no door to the loo) so I had to improvise as this is the only pretty place in our home to eat.

More Easter stuff this weekend.

I just want to let you know that you can keep track of me over at Twitter. Yes, I've been caught by the bug too. It's like Crocs isn't it? In a couple of months everyone is using Twitter, including my mother in law and we'll be so fed up with it. But for now it's quite fun ;o)
