Friday Finds on a Saturday

 

 

A few of the things I find each week that pique my interest and inspire me to want to do, create, become, etc. Maybe they will also inspire you!

In The English Kitchen today, Homemade Bourbon Biscuits. Quite simply delicious. 

Things are starting to fall into place. Step by step. Now all I have to do is find a place to live and get a car. My father has a line on a car for me that I am going to investigate but the place to live may take a while longer. I will get there.

Have a lovely Saturday and don't forget!
