Pink Saturday Pinterest and Me

Greetings Pinkettes! Lovely to see you! How are you? Me? Well, I'm late for my post again *sigh*. Hope you don't mind.

A huge thanks to Beverly How Sweet the Sound, our fabulous host, who keeps this pinkalicious party going for us! If you haven't already, do stop by Beverly's blog and say hello.

Today I'm taking down two (pink) birds with one stone....Pink Saturday and Pinterest. I know many of you use Pinterest. There was much concern about Pinterest's policies and several have either deleted their accounts or many of their pins. I'm thrilled to say that Pinterest has seen the error of it's ways and has changed their policy. What a relief! I was on the verge of closing my account. It's still a good idea to watermark your personal photos.

One of the many reasons why I am addicted enjoy Pinterest is to be able to create my boards and fill them with such goodies as...

Things I want...



eye candy and ideas/inspiration...



sharing my creations...



and my photos....





my favorite tea length dress
(taffeta, slit-pockets, AND a hot pink crenoline *happy feet*)....



as well as leaving Mother's Day gift hints to my children.
(I so want this skin for my laptop!)



To date I've already posted over 700 pins and I've only started a few weeks ago. I even have a board called "Think Pink" for future Pink Saturday posts.

If you are already a member, please do let me know. I'd love to view your board.

I hope you have enjoyed your visit and thanks taking the time to leave me your sweet thoughts!

Happy Pink Saturday (belated)! Be well!

Cheers!

My Allotment at its best......August 2008


When we lived in Tingewick I had an allotment. As you all know the back garden at the cottage was too small to grow vegetables or cut flowers so a big plot of land in the village was ideal.
What we got was far from a perfect allotment, far from even calling this plot of land an allotment.....but at the end we made it work (it was not easy!)
The soil was very hard and there was no water at the allotment. I was carrying few big bottles of water each day to the allotment to water everything.
We planted lots of potatoes, vegetable and flowers. I grew most of them from seeds in my greenhouse :) I spent all my free time at the allotment and enjoyed it very much.





My Garden from the past......


For 4 years we lived in a beautiful village - Tingewick in North Bucks. We had a lovely little cottage with a cute little garen at the back. We made the most of the house and the garden.

My garden had a very informal design and I used traditional materials, collected old pots and containers to plants my flowers in. I used mixture of ornamental and edible plants.
The garden in Tingewick was tiny so I did not grow any vegetables but I had a big allotment in the village to grow more flowers and vegetables (there will be another post about it)
