Snow is (still) falling

So here’s what I was meant to do yesterday: Wrap up warm, drink lots of tea with Manuka honey, apply lots of Vick’s, wrap presents, and watch The Muppet Christmas Carol, all in an attempt to fight off this chest infection. But here’s what I actually did: Wrapped up warm, saw the gorgeous light outside the window, threw on my wellies, grabbed the camera and headed for a wander around my estate.

Of course, the tea-drinking and present-wrapping did go ahead, just a little bit later than advertised…

(P.S. The baile wrapping paper is from lovely Irish Etsy shop placed, in case any one fancies some.)

  1. Berries! Berries with snow! Yay!

  2. I know that feeling so well: you’re coughing, throat is burning, maybe your nose is running, but it’s impossible to resist the lure of the light!! I hope you’re feeling better soon and are not too much worse for wear after going out to get these shots. It was totally worth it though, they’re beautiful 🙂 Merry Christmas, feel better in time to enjoy the holiday season & hopefully we’ll see each other again in the new year! x

  3. Thank you ladies 🙂 Eadaoin, a very odd concoction involving the juice of a lemon, an orange, some sliced ginger and a clove of garlic got me back on track! Hopefully I’ll be seeing both of you in a photowalk soon.
