Friday Night
Friday night. My plans are cancelled and my eyes tired and dry. So after lying rather dramatically across the sofa with a hot flannel on my face in an effort to revive them, I decided to throw myself a little old time Alison party in compensation. A festival of fairly lights and lemon and mint soda, a woozy, odd, ephemeral…
The Social Butterfly
If I was a butterfly I would be the kind who spends most of her days tight in her cocoon, only occasionally popping out to flutter her wings through the night skies, before retreating to swipe off the make up and exist in her cosy bubble thereafter, happy with her lot and pleased to have enjoyed the walls beyond her…
Reasons to be Grateful
I got myself in a muddle yesterday. Dwelling on what the world is becoming. How frightening everything seems. How much anger there seems to be bubbling under the surface of almost everything. How resentful we are. How conflicted by media, politics and the looming, slightly wonderful threat that is surely AI. How the world has become so very exhausting for…
The Renaissance Journal
Oh hello, there you are! I’m just popping in to say that today sees the launch of the first of my new collection of hardback blank journals, this one designed to accompany my Reniassance Course, (though you can of course use it for a freestyle Renaissance!) and those coming over the next few weeks created so that you can over…

Introducing Renaissance Lifestyle
One of the things I value most highly here at BrocanteHome is that so many of us have reached today together. Eighteen lovely years of knowing and growing side by side. Our paths quite different but the emotional framework of our lives so very much the same. An honour I will never stop adding to my daily gratitude list. I…
A Fallowing
One of the biggest lessons I am taking away from my fiftieth year is that the years we spend in fallow, or indeed Wintering are just as important as those years in which we experience the kind of growth that sprinkles joy over our future. That there are indeed periods in our lives that if cannot get around, we must…
Housekeeper’s Diary
I had quite forgotten how long winter lasts. How interminable the nights can seem and how January rolls into February and there still seems so very much of it left. Before Christmas there is much to do and then there is nothing and the nights stretch ahead, getting shorter as Spring dips her toe into still frozen waters, but still…
