Dear Penpal

I love stationary, in fact I have a minor stationary obsession, kiki-k, smiggle, give it all to me :)

Last week, trawling through the goodness google had to offer on all things stationary I stumbled across Indiefixx.com's Perpal Project! I jumped with giddy excitement. I love receiving things in the post, oh how opening letters makes me smile especially letters from someone other than Ashley at my bank.

I jumped at the opportunity to dive right in and hop to writing some snail mail. I am super excited to receive my first letter from Paula in Spain and can't wait to get penciling to Sandhya in India and Katrina in California!

The Birds are Chirping

It has been a day of clouds and rain, but hey, this is Scotland after all. Alas, now I sit in my window looking out at that castle that makes me grin and I can hear the birds chirping, this can only mean one thing. The rain has stopped, the streets are wet, the air smells cold and fresh, the day is happy.

I snapped this pic last night before the rain came, I have always loved summery (and not so summery) nights.
