Bassett's Liquorice Allsorts ...

 

Bassett's use the story of their creation in their marketing. In 1899 Charlie Thompson, a sales representative, supposedly dropped a tray of samples he was showing a client in Leicester, mixing up the various sweets. After he scrambled to re-arrange them, the client was intrigued by the new creation. Quickly the company began to mass-produce the allsorts and they became very popular.

It feels really good to be picking up my camera again and thinking about what to photograph.

My husband was away for a couple of weeks helping our eldest son rip out his old bathroom and prepping for the new one. I asked him to bring home some of the old floorboards...well, you can't miss an opportunity for a nice shabby backdrop, can you? The floorboards are actually grey but I used a film filter in processing and they came out this gorgeous turquoise colour that I have been wanting to achieve for ages. Teamed with my, now ancient, first ever pair of hairdressing scissors, wooden heart and vintage lace along with my bargain tulips that are also pretty shabby...and will get shabbier over the next few days.

 

I will try to get round to some commenting now I'm feeling a little better after the horrible virus I've had for the last six weeks or so.

 

Happy Sliders Sunday...and Happy Mother's Day to all you Mums out there.

236/365: I had earmarked this rose for my shot today but it was very windy so I picked it and decided on a flatlay.

Today is National Chocolate Day! Yum...can't go wrong there!

I'm about to finish my one year photo challenge. Time to look back at pics from the past. I think a book is in the making...

Practicing a little flat lay today. If you don't follow www.instagram.com/judilipinski/ you should. Her work is so inspiring and I hope to someday get to her level of artistry.

Strawberries, raspberries, and assorted red fruit in the middle...

Yum yum yum!

Observed each year on August 2, it is National Ice Cream Sandwich Day. This food holiday is one that will refresh each one of us on a warm summer day with a delicious frozen ice cream sandwich.

The original ice cream sandwich sold for a penny in 1900 from a pushcart in the Bowery neighborhood of New York. The vendor, who was never identified in the article printed in papers across the nation, sandwiched the ice cream between milk biscuits. Soon, push carts popped up around the city and country during the summer months selling the portable treats.

The modern version of the ice cream sandwich was invented by Jerry Newberg in 1945 when he was selling ice cream at Forbes Field. There are pictures from the early 1900s, “On the beach, Atlantic City”, that show Ice Cream Sandwiches were popular and sold for 1 cent each.

There are alternatives to the classic ice cream sandwich using chocolate cookies, oatmeal cookies or a rice crispy wafer in place of the original chocolate one.

Ice cream sandwiches are known around the world by a variety of names including the Monaco Bar, Giant Sandwich, Maxibon, Cream Between, Vanilla Slice and many more.

HOW TO OBSERVE

Enjoy an ice cream sandwich today! Post on social media using #IceCreamSandwichDay.

still life -flat lay--pearls and letter

I wanted this photo to be so much more than this, but this ended up being supper due to eating a late lunch. And they’re turkey meatballs, so I like to think they’re healthier ;)

The longer you can hold your breath, the more fun you will have in the sport of free diving. Ellie is one of the amazing few who can hold her breath for four minutes!

From my husband's collection ...

Italian, Belgian, Polish ...

and a few U.S. Postage Stamps

Flatlay still life with shells, stones and a piece of rusty metal (used to create the frame) found on beaches on the Llyn Peninsula, North Wales. The text is from a medieval Welsh manuscript called the Prediau.

I really tried to think outshide the box for this assignment and came up with this. I would appreciate any cc/feedback. This is my first flat lay.

So much fun was had with these beautiful Acer leaves from Sheffield Park & Garden
