Lights ! Action! Camera! 

Finally it’s curtain call for those participating in the A to Z Challenge and time to reveal your theme.

I didn’t have a theme last year and this year I have too many. Actually, two ideas playing in my head, which is one too many for a person who has everything but time. My first theme is too ambitious to attempt ( I realised in hindsight ) and decided to go with the easier one……

What is common with this book cover and my theme?

Plenty! When I first read this book, I was amazed how everyday things have a fascinating Back Story . We take many things for granted without a thought how they came about.

So this year, I decided to write about the things around the house.

Things Around The House

Many objects around the house are essential to my life, some bring back special memories or are treasured gifts; some are collected by my in-laws and some are just there!

I look forward to sharing photos and stories of objects around my home that are part of my family’s folk lore and history and hope you enjoy them too!
