a nod to the british seaside
Eat
|Here’s some hearty grub for this blanket inducing weather. Every one knows Britain for it’s fish and chips by the sea and whilst great every now and again, I’ve created a healthier version with much less grease but no less flavour.

Interiors
|Happy October! Here’s my Styling The Seasons contribution for this month. As I said before, I’ve got to the stage where I’m ready for Autumn in full pelt now.

DIY
|Yes people! I finally have a new DIY for you! I’m so sorry for such a canyon sized gap between this and the last one. It certainly wasn’t intentional but design work very much got in the way. Actually ‘got in the way’ makes it sound like an unwanted obstacle but I’ve been very thankful…

another anniversary
Life
|I don’t often get super personal over here at The Lovely Drawer but I had to mention it was our Wedding Anniversary. 3 years ago that fresh faced pair was us! People say hasn’t it whizzed by but actually it seems like ages ago! That’s not to say it’s been in any way a drag, let’s just…
