The flooring was laid in the kitchen today. Finally, the effect comes together, and I'm very pleased. Pleased enough to start arranging the little touches. Displaying the favourite China, the favourite pottery, the favourite plants.

I got the vases out and started my bouquet a week that Monty reckons my garden should yield. A bouquet needn't be in just one vase. I prefer lots of little vases with flower stems cut short.
