About me



I'm a half Finnish designer who has since taken a break to bring up my children. I used to work in Graphic Design, but now I prefer working with textiles and illustration. This blog is about my allotment and garden. I have been gardening for many years and grew up watching my mum and dad do the same. I began my allotment in Jan 2010 in memory of my father who passed a way just before then. I also love cooking and finding inventive and delicious ways to make my produce into meals. I'm growing with my experiences, and welcome any helpful advice! Sometime soon I hope to use my garden as inspiration for my art.

Christmas is coming!


I'm getting more excited about Christmas now and wish we would have cold weater this year. hmmm. It might be the last year we have a fire, you never know we may have moved into a new house by next year. Every year I think we will have a stylish affair with cute garlands, people smooshing around our house and apple cheeked little children looking adorable in the corner. Of course it descends into garish mish mash of decorations, nobody over for drinks as we've not budgeted for it and it's too much hassle and the kids driving us up the wall because it's rainded solidly for 10 days. Sigh, each year I live in hope.
