6/52 {weeks of happy}







I'm breaking with the rules this week and showing more than four things....I missed last week anyway, so I figure one extra doesn't hurt :-)

{one} Did you spot the little sun bird in this photo? Go back and have a look - see her now, in her little nest? The bottle brush in which she's built it in is really close to the verandah. I'm looking forward to her eggs hatching and watching them grow.

{two} A set of pretty new mugs. Worthy of happy, I think!

{three} Gorgeous roses and de-cluttering certainly made me happy! {read more about it here}

{four} Whilst it can be stressful, our beautiful farm makes me very happy, especially when everything runs smoothly.

{five} More delicious handmade cheese - this one is called haloumi. I pan fried it and ate it with some salad - it was completely divine!



What's on your happy list this week? 

Hope you'll have a great weekend!

      The cheese was given to us by a friend - but I certainly wish we were able to make some! :-)

  7. Any of these would make me happy too! I looked up 'sunbird', a bit like a large hummingbird? Images I found on google had many on people's hands ... maybe your little beauty will become tame enough for your hand :) Beautiful image of your farm with the rays of sun ... so green & lush! Have a great weekend Sarah! Wendy

    1. I'v never seen a hummingbird before so I am not sure...but they do flit around a lot and are quite friendly. I often get them confused with Honey Eaters too :-)

  10. I'm salivating over that fried Haloumi. Yummy!!! And I agree, farms are a lot of work but on days when everything falls into place, there is no better place really. Mel x

  16. Halloumi cheese is easy to get here. We prefer the one that is made in Cyprus. I've pan fried and served it on a rocket salad with honey dressing and walnuts. Yummo! Happy day to you. Tammy
