petersham nurseries

I discovered these images when being mesmerised by keiko oikawa's portfolio. They are images taken at petersham nurseries in Richmond, Surrey. My mum would be in love with this place. I got totally lost on their gorgeous website. They have the most incredible grounds and also have a cafe and playhouse (seriously fun) and hold functions. I wish we could visit this weekend. Damn that 26 hour flight.

i'm dreaming of a veggie garden

I can't wait for our house extensions and back yard to start and finish as I've been dreaming of a veggie patch for a long time. I want to plant lettuce, tomato, broccoli, cauliflower, peppers, chile, rocket, passionfruit, Oooo and I have to put a mango tree in somewhere.

Mountains, snow, fresh clean air, incredible local produce, wineries, coffee, boarding, tender bones.

the rock shop

the rock shop - cheap drinks, staff with attitude, great acoustics, a brooklyn favourite for its locals and bands wanting to get a start. Mia and I went to see Dave Dondero, a must on Mia's nyc list and we sipped our beers watching justice of the unicorns before hand, who are pretty random btw. This is one of those places where you hang with the band at the bar, no barriers, cool Brooklyn huh.

Brunch on the terrace at the gramercy hotel with Mia. Visit to nyc not complete without brunch on the terrace, drinks at the bar or checking into the hotel in the lobby.

the brooklyn botanical gardens

The Brooklyn Botanical Gardens are just magic. Mum and I visited on our trip mostly to see the Rose Garden, which unfortunately was only just starting to bloom, so missed it in all its glory. We did however stumble upon the Bluebell Wood, captured in the top photo. It was just enchanting.

nyc strawberries

With spring upon us, I remembered these yummy strawberries I captured from nyc.
