Because it is brand new. Because he makes me beam. Because we’ve both been a little by blown away by it. Because he has got twinkly green eyes and a funny accent. And children he adores. Because he is silly. Because he likes dancing on the beach. Because he goes so well with my drapes. Looks comfortable sitting on my sofa. Because he lives a million miles away and being together means moving too many mountains. Because he likes red wine. Because he tells me secrets and reads BrocanteHome religiously. Because I feel like I’m tempting fate just talking about it…
Create your own Brocante Life Book, plan Christmas, set up routines and rituals or live life the BrocanteHome way with my guided workbooks and planners.
I am as you are all probably aware in a permanent state of befuddlement, a look rather becoming with my bed head hair and constant expression of random cheerfulness. But at night I lie awake pondering. Not the meaning of life or…
Now then Sweeties, do you know the Vintage Mama? Lydia Poblano is the gorgeous bloggess over at TheVintageMama.Com, and I am thrilled that she has taken the time out of her hectic (read whirlwind) schedule to put together these scrumptious little guidelines…
Well scrub my floorboards and call me a meringue! Did I fall asleep and dream up an online store? GollyGosh has got to be the cutest little shop on the web… "We love our homes. And we love our families and friends…
Last week I loudly and not so proudly declared the necessity to SORT MYSELF OUT. And thus began a new well-being regime, much compromised by the dailiness of life, but apparently working all the same for in the first seven days I…

While I rather feel like a school ma’am rallying her troops, I wanted to set a little project for all those taking part in the Seasonal Scrub this month. You see I believe the Scrub is a rather wonderful time to take…

You have been quite mysterious about this man. From the snippets you do tell, he sounds scrumptious! Enjoy each moment. Mountains can be moved, you know. Take heart.
Just wanted to tell you my mum moved from Switzerland to Bermuda, taking my little sister with her, to marry the man of her dreams. And they are all as happy as larry!
If it is meant to be…… I met my Feller online 9 years ago. It took us 6 years to stop being long distance lovers. (Lots of airline flights!) I waited until my daughter was ready for college and then I moved. The heart knows no time clock or miles…….it only knows what keeps it beating. And I mean, c'mon….a guy who matches the drapes is darn hard to find! You better keep him!
After a long absence from visiting , (more and more life has a way of limiting my browsing time) I checked in hoping something good was happening for you. Oh look … all kinds of wonderful!!! Whether fleeting or forever (and who'd know with your cryptic snippets ~ ???) nothing like twinkly green eyes and a funny accent (what accent?) to bring sunshine back to your life, eh. All the very best to you Ali.

You sound deliciously delighted! Enjoy these sweet and happy moments, he sounds wonderful.
Just think of that song: 'There ain't no mountain high enough, to keep me away from you!' Wishing you only the best.
Spill the beans, pretty please? Tell us more about him!
