To help those who may find these months a little difficult, here are a few light and lovely things with pretty details that have been on our shopping list for a while now ...
HERE IN THE UK, TODAY IS considered the first day back to work after the holidays. We were away to visit family in Scotland late last week, and spent the weekend lingering over festive things for the last time, so it's back to work for us today as well.

WE HAVE BEEN sitting on the edge of our seats over the grave debacle that is Brexit and what may or may not happen on March 29. If the most recent deal by Teresa May had not been voted down in the House of Commons today (as it was expected to), we might have been directly affected and forced to leave Spain before the month was through. What happens next is still anyone’s guess, but hopefully it will lead to an extension or not at all. Brexit stress aside, all is well in life and love.
