Just a little something before I crawl under my hydrangea sprinkled duvet: the latest issue of Lonny features intimate articles with both Cath Kidston and Rachel Ashwell and makes quite the most scrumptious of bedtime reading for Brocante girls across the land… Night night Housekeepers.x
Have never read Lonny, but was so tickled to be able to read the articles online (flipping the pages…I love that!) Thanks so much for the link. And, wanted to tell you thanks as well for mentioning the Persephone books. Have read a Dorothy Whipple (Someone in the Distance) and have ordered a used copy of Saplings by Noel Streatfeild. This could turn out to be a habit.
Glad you're home. You sound good. 🙂
I am good: and raring to go, with a hundred and one book recommendations I am dying to talk about and just cannot find the time to write up at the moment with Finley on holiday and everything else life wants to throw at my door…
But never mind: there's always tomorrow and it's lovely to see someone else delighted by Persephone and the books it is re-printing. I suspect you might enjoy The Homemaker by Dorothy Canfield Fisher too.. and best of all it's free to read on google books… http://books.google.com/books?id=lRc9nlzmwaMC&lpg…
Enjoy!x
