I seriously love your painting Zara, the chooks are adorable. Very clever! Look at your real chooks inside...they look very comfy. It looks like your roast beetroot wont be too far away. Stay warm x
ReplyDeleteBeautiful winter images Zara. That date loaf looks delicious and your dear little chickens look cute but sneaky!
ReplyDeleteThe chooks inside made me giggle! I bet they were proud of themselves! Your beetroot looks divine.

I looove date loaf...and date scones...and well just dates!. cute chookies! x
ReplyDeleteLove your watercolour efforts, both of you that is! Cheeky chooks inside, once I came home from work when my MIL was minding the kids and there was a neatly deposited dry chook poo on my pillow! Yep unsupervised chooks up on our bed! I like to think it was because MIL was providing superior supervision of the children hence not noticing what the chooks were up to! mel x
ReplyDeleteYum, date loaf - my mum and nan used to make that, haven't had it in years! Seriously loving your watercolours x
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous start to winter. Shenanigans with the chickens, date loaf and sewing, sounds like perfection to me. I also love your watercolour chooks. It would make the loveliest wrapping paper. Melinda x
ReplyDeleteOH ZARA!!! the painting of the chooks is gorgeous!!!!!
ReplyDeleteYour painting of the chickens would make cute wallpaper, and the photo of the chickens inside your house put a smile on my face,
ReplyDeleteYour watercolours are really delightful!
ReplyDeleteCheeky chooks! Love the wallpaper - lucky you! Roast beetroot defo dreamworthy! Happy winter to you.. Stay cozy!
ReplyDeleteDate loaf with plenty of butter, just the way I like it (although my hips don't) Lovely painting
ReplyDeleteGorgeous watercolours - clever couple! Love that fabric and the chooks are too cute. Just about to get some chookies about that size this week. Not sure how I'll feel about them coming inside the house, though. Haha x
ReplyDeleteyour winter is looking wonderful!
ReplyDeleteAll beautiful images Zara. You are so very talented, as is your partner I see.
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love date loaf, have a beautiful recipe that's made in the cylindrical tin with lids at both end. Beautiful round slices of deliciousness!
Your beetroot looks very healthy, as do your beautiful, young, cheeky Sussex chooks.
Your painting of the little red chickens is the best! And date loaf with lots of butter, so good, my mum makes it too and I get so happy! xxx
ReplyDeletewater colours are amazing Zara! i love that the chooks snuck in the house...cheeky little things! xx
ReplyDeleteI love the chook watercolours, you clever duck! And yes. Date loaf must always be eaten with plenty of butter. xo
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing these beautiful images. Your date loaf and butter is positively mouth watering... I am salivating as I type.
ReplyDeletego the date loaf! yum! xx
ReplyDeleteOh No chooks inside!!, Please don't tell me that you've put chicken wire in the cupboard doors in the kitchen so you don't have to walk anywhere to collect the eggs! EeeeK! seriously though , they look beautifully happy and content inside the house!
ReplyDeleteNow I feel like date loaf and there are only two dates in the jar!
