2 days ago I took a plane from Charlotte, North Carolina to London, England.
I had lived in the States for over 2 years and it changed me.
It transformed my outlook and opportunities to change direction.
Since I was there and knew of my return to England my prayer has been that God would give me opportunities to be creative.
Yesterday (my first day back) I attended a cupcake basics class.
Today I searched through charity shops for bits and bobs that will enable me to make handmade gifts this year.
Tonight I was painting a canvas and cutting leaves out of purplish tones.
At one point, I thought "enough!! It is time to write these down; to recall what worked and didn't work; ideas of where to find freebies; tips of great websites; photos of inspiration...."
As you can see I am buzzing to get started.
I will start with the background of my blog. It is standard and one that is on here but it reminded me of one of my favourite places in Charlotte, North Carolina. The Diamond. This diner has super cheap and super yummy food. Lots of deep fried goodness with the taste of the South, good music, good company and good weather. On the walls of The Diamond is a wallpaper of utensils. (Much nicer than this one). It was tones of green, blue and grey. See below...
I vowed to have one like it in my kitchen. Now I have - as near as I can! ......In Ruth's Kitchen.
