3 lovely things
1.) Mr V’s classic and so very gorgeous purchase.
2.) Strongly graphic ships floating by and making the window look almost painterly…
& 3.) Matza granola… baked from Martha Stewart’s show, consumed… (too much of) and digesting in my tummy…

It’s funny you know, I must see hundreds… thousands of images a day. I’m pretty quick at flicking through them, scrolling fast, eyes on the lookout for that special something I hardly ever find and enjoy… that magic moment of aha! I like that… let’s see that closer…
I had that experience today, with an image I didn’t expect to...
Okay okay, I confess!! I’m procrastinating!! I’m a giant big webby-bloggy procrastinator slightly afraid/lazy/worried/concerned about designing Spoonful Issue 2. And as a result I’m not doing it at all.I know.
I’m terrible.
I open the file each day and look at it a bit… tweak some type.. move things around… but fundamentally… I’m procrastinating....
Damn and blast!!
Now that I’ve decided to try to save money for the trip to America (yeeehaaaaa!!) I keep finding the most delicious and tempting things to spend money on… sigh, I am being strong, but would you just Look at this chopping board?! FABULOUS and immediate love… sigh…

I usually avoid crossing over my different projects, but really can’t resist sharing with you visionaries, the gorgeous easter ‘draw a bunny’ challenge happening at Spoonful up untill Easter Saturday. (no religion is not included, jews, muslims, seculars, christians… EVERYONE can draw a bunny!)

CRAZY week here at home with changing all sorts of things, working on projects and trying to catch a breath or just a moment to do some of the fun projects I’d like to do…
The house is full of beautiful flowers. They’re gorgeous and make me smile each time I see them! Think I’m going through a bit of a yellow phase… really loving the roses… yellow… ...
just a little post today to share our table the other night at dinner.
Got all inspired to use our fresh herbs as our greenery and they were such friendly (and yummy!) additions to our table. (Mr V has cute feet!)
Life is CRAZY busy at the moment here at Spoonful HQ. So that’s all for now.
I shall keep you posted.

a little more...
A little about the last post… Mr Visionary added something when he read this that I think was VITALLY important and I’d like to share. When he said it to me, I was like ‘Of course!’ because it’s definitely something that affected me zillions of times… perfectionism. image by: Cormac Phelan The draw-back of Perfectionism…
So often I wait. That is...
Greetings Visionaries. An important post today.
I’m finding that through Spoonful a lot of people - creatives in particular - are writing to me and asking how to make it get their stuff out there, get noticed etc etc.
This morning I got an email from a lady who takes beautiful photographs, but is finding it hard to get noticed and so I wrote her a little email in response which a lot of...
they did say please...
heeeeeehehehehehe, this totally cracked me up. Thanks mr V. My mom always taught me about my ‘pleases & thank yous’ but perhaps she forgot to mention my ‘never-evers’? chuckle chuckle. I wouldn’t park there. No really, I wouldn’t :) I like how they thanked the non-parkers too. hehehehe there should be more elaborate messages to people on garage doors!

And with a puff of smoke & a pile floating white feathers, he disappeared from the staircase on that Wednesday afternoon, never to be seen again…
(well, that’s what I think happened anyway, hehe)
Admiring some really really beautiful work by Erin Nicole Johnson today… She just sets us & captures magic moments so elegantly doesn’t she?
Aside from that...

Gummy bear Chandelier, anyone…?
These guys are only making 5000, and well, it’s a pretty sweet offer. hehehe I think if I had kids this would HAVE To go in their room, seriously, how could anyone resist the lure of so many gummies (well actually, they’re acrylic, so no calories..even better right?!) it’s just so happy!

WOAW! So we ended our weekend with a little (or should I say LARGE!!) visit from the biggest Ocean liner in the… wait for it… WORLD! You should have seen this baby!
Queen Mary 2, a broad, looming beast of a ship stood deep and present on the harbour waters this evening. A tug boat heaved with all its might to help it turn, and agonizingly slowly park its breadth just next to...
Hello Visionaries! It’s Friday!!
I don’t often post on a friday.. I’m not sure why, but it just winds up or down too quickly and chaotically to have some peace to post. That said, today feels pretty peaceful, so I thought I’d share some lovely moments & finds… Let’s see… Oh yes…

Apparently you can’t have your cake and eat it… which is a pity really, isn’t it?
I guess you can just look at your cake… which is not so bad when they look like this, is it? thea. xx

Want people to hear about you?
I’m almost finished organising...
And Sometimes Do a Bit of Both…?
Well that’s what I’m doing anyway… HUGELY exciting news, in that Mr Visionary has been invited to talk at a Conference in Washington, & guess what… I’m going too!
We’ll be going to Washington, New York, LA, & San Francisco… all virgin trips for me! I have never been to the States before ( I know I know,...
