Organic fruit and veg box

Isn't that beautiful? And just £15. At least I think that's good value. I wonder what the same items bought from Tesco would cost?

However, I do feel good for buying them this way - grown in a walled garden near Richmond, less than 15 miles away and delivered by the woman who grew them :-)

Sleep deprivation

I have always felt most energised when I have eight hours sleep in the bag.

Our daughter is three weeks old. Today I am working. Last night I had five hours, broken into three chunks of 2, 2, 1. This morning I could surf a wave of caffeine. but this afternoon my head hurts and I have no patience with anyone around me.

I am now going to sleep under my desk.

Unsettled, exciting times

The last month has been totally crazy - waiting for labour to begin, a baby daughter, sleepless nights, the end of my creative writing course, going back to work sleep-deprived, etc. We are also quickly realising how little space we have, so moving house is on the cards too.

So, as I gather myself and try to regain some creative composure (because isn't that what this site is about for me?), please be patient. Whoever you are :-) or are not.
