Last night the husband was away, the children were in bed asleep giving me a chance to spend some quality time with Kevin.
He could not make it in person, nearly as good is his latest book to explore. I am referring to Kevin McCloud's 43 Principles of Home, Enjoying Life in the 21st Century, a Christmas present from the husband (thank you darling).

Unsurprisingly (given my blog name!) I share his appreciation for creativity and craftsmanship, relating especially to Principle 27 which includes one of my favourite quotes. McCloud writes about how most items we buy are never bought from the people who actually make them, and how this dis-association can leave us lacking an appreciation for the item's substance.

He has as always, presents his thoughts in an informative and entertaining way, with in an easy to dip in and out of style with great illustrations and photos - A book well worth checking out.
