Grateful Friday

On this rainy day, the first Friday in September, I am glad to be grateful for:

1. The gocco postcard swap I'm taking part in next month. Thanks to Lisa for organising! I just have to think of an idea for my card.

2. The Sunday Cycle Picnic (scroll down for more info) this Sunday at London Fields. We have been getting ready this week and I'm praying the weather stays dry... Please come along, you'll be most welcome.

3. Listening to Rosie Thomas this week. I love all her music, especially her album 'When we were small'. It's quiet and dreamy and blends extremely well with the pitter patter of rain on the window.

4. Homemade raspberry jam on toast.... ooooo it's the best jam I've ever tasted!

5. Visits from old friends from Asia this week. We met up last night and ate kao ya (roast duck) at Four Seasons in Bayswater. It still makes me laugh that they come all the way to London and want to eat Chinese food, but it was a good chance for me to eat some real Chinese for a change.

Have a fabulous weekend!
