It's not all bouquets and white crayon

Normally something like this doesn't much resonate with me. Ordinarily I might call it twee, perhaps a bit precious. But I happen to really enjoy Rachel's blog, her aesthetic and her dreamy, cautious-yet-brave voice. Then there is the fact that she looks a lot like my mother, and a bit like me, in this photo. And the matter, too, of this sentiment being awfully similar to what 2008 was like for me.
Thanks, Rachel.

Rachel Ashwell! She's great, I miss her show. I discovered her around the same time I discovered Nigella, another very cool woman.

Like the new blog layout :). Hope you're enjoying 2009 so far!

I never saw her show, but I really love her blog and suspect you would too, Soph. And Nigella! I still have the biggest girlcrush on her. Doesn't she seem like the most amazing girlfriend ever?
