Postcard Tower

Ever wondered what a pile of 500 postcards would look like? Here is the answer! 500 brand new Lapwing Printworks postcards ready to go in with our orders and to be given out willy-nilly. Ordering them is something we've been meaning to do for a long time, and we're so pleased we took the plunge because they look great!

This is another letterpressed card from last week's efforts - a teeny, tiny card with a dark blue crown. The envelopes have a smaller, matching gold crown on the front. I love these ones, they strike me as being rather Regency somehow - perhaps I was being influenced by flicking through Pride and Prejudice looking for quotes for the Pemberley cards. Now available in our shops - and with the added incentive of a Lapwing postcard!

Today has been hot and muggy again, and attempting to work in a deckchair in the garden didn't result in much work being done... Tonight we are harvesting our very first courgettes for our tea, which is very exciting, but I'm making myself wait until Jon gets home from work so we can pick them together (seeing as he does all the work, and I just reap the benefits).

Pleased you had a good time at the weekend.

We've harvested quite a few courgettes already. Four more tonight, 2 green and 2 yellow.

Any good recipes? Ours are roasting around a chicken joint.
And the flowers chopped up in scrambled egg are delicious!
