    Reminds me of kitchens of my Bohemian (well,as in Czech as well) aunties. Pretty colours + cosy. What did you cook?

    We had John's dad over - a ham cooked very slowly in a big pot full of white wine with carrots, onions, celery, garlic cloves and herbs. We also had roast potatoes and parsnips, and steamed mangetout, broccoli and cauliflower. We were very full at the end of it!

    Wonderful, warm and welcoming! I love your kitchen, I bet we have a lot of the same things..What a good idea having a curtain over the back door, help to keep out the cold and a great look!

    Hello Jolli, what lovely words! Our cottage is old and draughty and heated mainly by a wood burning stove, so door curtains are a necessity, though I love the look of them too. I always feel so at home when I see your interior shots, we seeem to have a love of the same things!

    Lovely colours Susie! - we have the same problem - none of the doors shut anyway, but the cat won't have them shut, so we've got curtains too. That looks really cosy.

  7. *Susie* (61 months ago | reply)

    We've got a hole cut in the bottom of this door to allow the cats in and out of the conservatory, which is marginally less draughty than leaving the door open!. Like you, our cats won't have the door shut into the sitting room (if we try there's always a queue on either side) so we have a heavy curtain there too. But curtains do feel cosy.

    This sort of chaos is good! I thought those were tomatos on the cutting board so I just knew you had salad. I have to tell you I viewed large and had my magnifying glass looking at everything. Made myself right at home, I did. (but that's what your pics invite me to do!"

    Yes, Susie, your kitchen is so cosy! I love it.

    looks very inviting but I'm not offering to wash up

  11. *Susie* (61 months ago | reply)

    Elaine, or should I call you Sherlock? - you're right, we started with a salad - we have plenty of salad leaves now growing in the veggie patch although the tomatoes are shop bought as ours are a long way from cropping at the moment. Glad to hear you made yourself at home!

    Hello Anna my friend, I'm so glad you like our kitchen.

    Sue, I don't blame you, the washing up was not for the faint hearted!

  12. Calamitylaine (61 months ago | reply)

    Ha! now I'm a little embarrassed. You just have so many interesting things to see! Hope you are having a great day!

  13. Calamitylaine (61 months ago | reply)

    Ha! now I'm a little embarrassed. You just have so many interesting things to see! It wasn't just the tomato Sherlock spotted. It also looked like lettuce in the blue bowl on the left. LOL! Hope you are having a great day!

  14. *Susie* (61 months ago | reply)

    Don't be embarrassed, I'm impressed with your sleuthing! Yes, the lettuce came from our garden and I washed it in the blue colander. Did you notice the huge torch being charged up near the lettuce? We use it for five minutes and it takes several hours to re-charge!

  15. Calamitylaine (61 months ago | reply)

    LOL! I saw that big torch (spotlight to us) and maybe a smaller red one hanging on the shelf. Didn't want to bring up any eye issues you may have! Just kidding!

    You know whenever I come to your stream I have the feeling that I'm visiting... it's a very nice atmosphere your cultivate here. The chaos as you call it looks very artistic and I'm glad there's blue there or I'd have been disappointed. I love the check btw - that's what cottages are meant to have in the kitchen :-)

    I love everything about your kitchen! My grandkids and family were visiting this past week-you should have seen the chaos in the Teeny Tiny Cabin! Have a great day Susie!

  18. *Susie* (61 months ago | reply)

    Elaine, the red light is a clip on spotlight and is a permanent fixture!

    Zixi, thank you as ever for those thoughtful words, it's nice that you find my chaos artistic, although quite a lot of it is stuff waiting to be washed up or cleared away! And glad you liked my gingham!

    Claudia, thanks for the visit - the first photo I ever saw of your place was of that lovely homey kitchen of yours, I'm glad you like mine!

    This is the most cosy kitchen I ever saw. I love it, the cabinets reminds me of dollhouses. Lots of happy meals to you from this great kitchen.

    I love this kind of caos!

  32. *Susie* (60 months ago | reply)

    Thanks Deep Scarlet, myself I think I like it a bit better when I've got some sort of order restored!

  33. Eline Pullen (56 months ago | reply)

    That looks like a lovely place,
    i guess you own too much beautiful stuff :)

  34. *Susie* (56 months ago | reply)

    Eline, thanks for the nice word, I certainly do have a lot of stuff but I think that a lot of it is beautiful only to me!
