this and that...
Breaking all the rules and having pancakes for dinner..it's kind of a monthly tradition and one called for during school holidays.
Ever so slowly making my way through a back log of magazines..time is poor these days.
Familiarising myself with a new toy..let me tell you it's caused quite a bit of frustration thus far.
When creating a little studio space for myself a cosy reading nook was a must..pity it hasn't had much use yet.
Rearranging, sorting and tossing..Spring brings out the cleaning beast in me, nothing is safe!
A friend and I missed out by a day signing up for this year's Advent Swap..we decided to do one between the two of us, I'm really looking forward to it.
Coffee seems to be the beverage of choice these days..when one is burning the candle at both ends it sure does help.
Hoping your Thursday is a wonderful one.

gosh. your pancakes look so fluffy and good. i like your reading nook. hope you get to put your feet up soon. i agree that coffee is the perfect pick me up. most mornings it's two cups for me. xo
Yummo looking pancakes. our "dessert school holidays dinner" was rice pudding with bananas. so good.
eeeek you just reminded me how excited I am about the advent swap. can't wait to get collecting :)
Oh it all looks so lovely, Tammi. It's so lovely to see parts of your nest. Hey, do you think you may be ready for a feature on The Guest Nest????? pressure pressure ... x
Those pancakes look superb! I had to stop myself subscribing to mags this year, my pile was growing fast and never being read! Your space is looking gorgeous..x
Pancakes is most certainly a must for dinner every now and then, especially for school holidays!
Hope you get a chance to put your feet up in that gorgeous space of yours xx

Oooh, I like the sound of pancakes for dinner. Great holiday treat.
Good luck with the overlocker. I am still getting to know mine. I only do hems and nothing else. I'm a bit scared to venture into anything else. When using my maching today I had to re-thread part of it. I almost went in a spin thinking how I was going to do it, but I fluked my way there. Must do a WEA course I think.
Your little space is lovely. I spy a couple of additions that look right at home there.
i need to read my latest mags too. i have a quick browse when I get them but lately haven't actually gotten a chance to sit down and read them.
And like the look of your new toy.

Loved seeing some snippets of life over your way :) Spring cleaning is happening here too (albeit slowly) and I have a few magazines I've yet to find the time to flick through :)
Those pancakes look delish!!!
I love your new toy! I constantly battle with my overlocker too...I hate having to change the threads!
Lovely to see a little bit of your 'this and that'

Thrilled to see you're using those cups and saucers Tammi x
I love seeing your little beautiful snippets Tammi and I have to agree with Veronica those pancakes look delicious. I have two girls here that would be pretty keen to have that for dinner too:) I am enjoying the spring cleaning here too, it's been good for the soul. xx
Hi Tammi your space is looking lovely. I have only just started sewing and have to admit that an overlocker looks very intimidating. I still have yet to change the needle on my machine :)
We have finally finished spring cleaning, but I am falling behind on my spring planting.

Ah yes, coffee. I do like tea, but I think coffee is my true love. Tea, while pleasant, lacks that punch that coffee has. So envious of your cute reading nook. If only I had the space for that! So glad to see you back here Tammi :)
There were bananas and pancakes around our house at dinner time too tonight. I hope you work out the secrets of your new toy successfully Tammi...don't let it get the better of you!
that looks like a whole bunch of happy to me, especially the pancakes. i would love to sit in your little reading nook with that coffee, it looks delightful :)sarah
Oh Tammi, I always love your warm and inviting images. Your reading nook looks so lovely, what a shame you haven't bunked down and enjoyed it's loveliness yet. Pancakes for dinner sounds totally wonderful to me... and they look scrumptious all topped with banana, Mmmm my tummy is grumbling.
Hope you have a great weekend xo
An overlocker.....nice new toy to become familiar with....you won't look back once you master it.xx
Love the pics...your home seems so much clamer (and neater) than mine lol! Know the frustration of the overlocker...goodness they are hard to thread!
Those pancakes look divine...thanks for sharing some inspiration with us!
We like to break the rules during holidays, my kids would love pancakes for dinner! I also have a new toy and its causing me a few little headaches.... Slowly getting used to mine. I've been sewing from my mums machine which is 40 years old and loved it. But it's wearing out tension struggling so invested in a modern machine, I do miss my mums old solid machine. Have a great weekend:)
Your such a rebel. I like that. Its fun to break rules once in a while. It breaks the monotony of life.

Hello lovely. Hope you are having a wonderful week. I meant to comment on this post when I first read it but ran out of time. Best of luck with the overlocker. Once you have mastered it you won't be able to live without it! :)
I have just got myself a new sewing machine and I am still trying to master it!
hi tammi
just popping in to say hello.
hope this creative space of yours is coming along well for you.
enjoy your day.

Oh Tammi, your bits and pieces seem so decadent to me. I love those pancakes. Will you share your recipe? I love that you make them a dinner time treat every now and then.
Gosh, it's so lovely to have time to read your blog. I've been missing you, and just might stay for a bit and stalk you! xxx
At first glance, I thought it was a patty. I was wrong. And when I was scrolling down the comments, That's when I knew it is a pancake. But it looks delicious though.
