About

Nice to meet you, my name's Kate, I have one (little) blog and two daughters "That Baby" now known as "Biscuit" and "This Baby" who is known as "Wiggles". One of them isn't a baby any more, but the other still pretty much is. I ended up marrying the best boy I've ever met, he is amazeballs, but he would not be impressed with me for using that word to describe him.  I quite often wonder how the flippin' 'eck he puts up with me....

Together we live in my childhood home alongside my parents and older brother, we drive each other nuts sometimes, but we wouldn't want to be anywhere else in the world. We live in a small village that is wonderful, but often completely bonkers. It's a crazy kind of hybrid mixing a little bit of Dibley with quite a lot of Royston Vasey (google it, I dare you)! 

We have an allotment where we grow our own fruit and vegetables and although we're not really that great at it we love it. I very much like to crochet, but I can't follow a pattern without getting stroppy so I can only make blankets. Beautiful blankets, admittedly, but ONLY blankets! 

I have a penchant for revamping what other people consider to be hideous charity shop dresses, occasionally, despite my dubious sewing skills, I manage to turn one into something fabulous. This makes me both happy and smug in equal measure. 

I often speak first and think later. I'm sometimes amusing, sometimes outrageous and sometimes a little bit quiet for no particular reason. I blog about whatever catches my eye, for no other reason than because I want to.  Buy me a cocktail and we'll be friends for life...
