The Summer Solstice

At last the summer has arrived, and it's too hot to work in the garden after 11-ish. Long may it last - after nine months of rain!!

 So, a reminder to have a look at my other blog pages, which you can access from this one, and today I've added my little Summer Solstice celebration on the 'Celebrating the Year' page - enjoy!

Capsule wardrobe

Here, as a follow-on from my piece the other day about 100 pieces of me, are items 61 onwards: the capsule wardrobe. It's a work in progress!
