We have been enjoying the sweet old fashioned adventures of "Milly Molly Mandy".

They are the kind of tales that pack you up a nice picnic of cucumber sandwiches, some jam tarts and a bottle of ginger beer before setting you off down the country lane in search of "adventures" with "little friend Susan" in tow.

Till it's time to head home for a good cup of sweet milky tea and a slice of Mother's homemade bread and butter beside the fire and Grannies knitting.

Good times, good times.

  1. The shawl is just beautiful! I have the Milly, Molly, Mandy book and am just waiting for the wee one here to get a little older to read it. Glad to hear they are lovely stories.

  6. The Milly, Molly, and Mandy book sounds adorable and similar to the Betsy, Tacy, and Tib books that I grew up with!
