On the kitchen table today… pickings from the garden – ginger flowers, white periwinkles that self-sowed in a cement crack, a spotted blackberry lily from a lovely friend’s cutting, a native, blue flax lily, the bleeding heart (was one of Grandma Lorna’s favourites), tiny, yellow flowers from bok choy gone to seed, even a cobbler’s peg flower. 
Yes, a bit of a mishmash, including some weeds, I know, yet they seem to radiate happiness from their little vase on the table. (Might have to move them to my desk instead while I write!) Buona giornata. 
New season, new month and very happy to say… a new book on the way! I’ve recently signed a contract with HQ Fiction – HarperCollins for book three. It’s very early news but so many of you over the years have asked with such warmth and kindness when the next book is coming, I wanted to share this with you straight away.
