When did I become...

Laura Ingalls Wilder?

I'm not really sure when it happened but I noticed it whilst fillin' the water jug before climbing into bed in the loft wearing my new nightcap.

You see, despite all the luxuries that can now be found in Casa Cornwell like heat, and walls that don't crumble, and floors that don't sag and bounce, and our new kitchen couch....

when the weather does this

we still lose the greatest luxury we have....running water.  Yep.  Water tubes that hang in trees still freeze when the temp dips below 0.

Just because...

Every house needs at least one bowl with legs.....

And because I've had a long lazy new year weekend.

Happy New Year,  Everyone.  May your 2016 bowl always be full and grow some legs.
