BettyBush's Profile

I reused a pair of knickers as a shoe polish rag, but was slightly embarrassed. I ran out of polish halfway through, so raided my housemate's shoe polish bag and found..... a shoe polish covered pair of knickers! It made me happy.

I live in a very communal urban house share with five others, including my girlfriend, plus a bunch of chickens. It's fun, but sometimes can feel a little claustrophobic and when my gf and I move out I'm looking forward to having more privacy - we end up eating out quite a lot so that we can be alone without being in bed, and it would be nice to be able to be just the two of us more often.
One day, we plan to all live on a ranch together, but with separate front doors, not quite communal, but a real community.

What about finding a blue and a pink set where the pattern and tone are the same - I'm thinking of some children's ikea textiles I have that look good together but are definitely blue and pink.

That's so strange, my housemates and I had this conversation just yesterday, and I chose my Le Creuset Round Dutch Oven - partially because it was my uncle's then my dad's then my mum adopted it and replaced the knob for me... so whilst I love my food processor and whisk and marble rolling pin and enormous cookie cutter collection, none of those things are as irreplaceable as something that I love in its own right, but for sentimental reasons too.
(That said, I have some crockery that I couldn't bear to part with).
