i love making pizzas at home. my recent favourite has been a half-half pizza, one side with thinly sliced potato, fresh rosemary, sea salt and a drizzle of yummy olive oil, the other side with an olive tapenade base topped with broccoli, cherry tomatoes, fetta and mushrooms.

i sewed some poppies a few weeks ago, and i just adore watching them grow, they're such a welcome burst of colour in my still sleepy garden. i will never get tired of taking photos of the flowers that pop up out of the greenery; it's why i love spring so much, the surprise of plants you'd forgotten about, or the ones you never planted to begin with... the wild mint is also making a reappearance, which is always delightful. i miss the days of walking down my front path through a cloud of minty pefume, ahh!
