A Trip Down Memory Lane

After a very leisurely morning, we all eventually got organised and got ourselves out to do some last minute organising and purchases for the boys trip to Belgium...including the elusive "warning triangle"!

While we were out this little box caught my eye in a shop, and I was transported in a flash to my childhood. My mother had these tea caddies which she kept up high in the kitchen. Clear memories of being around 5 or 6 came flooding back if trying to climb up in the work surfaces to get to biscuits and the smell of soup cooking on the stove for hours.
I haven't seen these boxes since... so I had to have one.

We get the keys to our rented house on 1st September, which means we can move in gradually over that week and get the place looking reasonably "homely" before Mr C disappears for a few months back out to the sandy place.

An early Blip today, as Pops, father in law is arriving tomorrow, so I best get the house back to show home standard!
