Oh You Pretty Things – Socks

Posted by Sonya Cisco on Feb 17, 2015 in Featured, Life | 25 comments

This week Oh You Pretty Things is hosted over at Keynko, and her theme is socks. You know, those things you use to keep your feet warm. Socks have got good haven’t they? As a kid I only remember my virgin knee highs (as we called them at school – the white, pull up socks with a small holey pattern) or other boring plain ones. My kids have monsters, dinosaurs, hearts, flowers, and all manner of characters on theirs.

The Good Things

After a stressful week that ended with another rejection on the house front, I am picking myself up and dusting myself down by looking at the happy highlights that nestled within the annoyingness.

Sunday Adventures at the Subtropical Gardens

It is becoming a bit of a family tradition to head out somewhere each Sunday that will allow Betsy to take photographs while also allowing Syd to have an adventure. This weekend saw us visit the Subtropical Gardens at Abbotsbury.

Snapping Pretty

Betsy is rediscovering her love of photography. She did an AS level in it, which she enjoyed to an extent, especially the ability to develop her own films, but felt some of the joy was removed by being constrained by her teachers ideas rather than able to be free to use her own.

Oh You Pretty Things – Books

Posted by Sonya Cisco on Feb 3, 2015 in Featured, home and interiors | 25 comments

This weeks Oh You Pretty Things is hosted over at Keynko and the theme is books.

I love books. I cannot imagine life without reading. I inhale words, when on a roll I can read a dozen books month, and when not nose deep in papery type I can be found digesting the digital version. Yes, I do read e-books, mostly because my budget can’t keep up with my need for new material. You cannot beat the physical thing though, and I still buy several real books a month – from book shops and charity shops.
