Minnie

My little garden helper :)  Not that I did any gardening - I just looked around and figured what I need to do........a lot, it turns out!

Loved the almost rim-lighting effect on Minnie's head as she watched some birds in a tree.  

I've lit the fire tonight - much earlier that I'd hoped it would be but that's because it's much colder than I hoped it would be!  It may blow over and warm a little but, given we're only 6 weeks or so from mid-winter, I suspect this is the start........I also changed the duvet over to my snuggly feather and down winter one today.......yup - winter's marching towards us.
