Blogger Envy 2

I forgot to add The Airing Cupboard as another of  my blog favourites. I had read pieces before from it but somehow forgot about it. She is has a piece about St Patricks Day and not feeling overly Irish as her parents are English . She has spent most of her life here and got an Irish passport as it was easier to obtain when her UK ran out. I think she has a point though or else she would have called her blog The Hotpress. She's funny and opinionated in the sense of having opinions on what she likes to do, not neccessarily on what anybody else does. She decorates her house and stages it beautifully but also shows her kitchen in a heap before she's sorted it. I appreciate the humanity. I like too that she discusses staying home and unschooling her kids, not quite as militantly as Penelope Trunk . She speaks of spending her husbands money-in the sense that she isn't earning so much from design now but is saving them the cost of childcare and how people do tend to dismiss the career of  housewife. I am satrting to read the other bloggers who comment regulary on her posts. I like her descriptions of the everyday interspersced with more happenings that could could be regarded as 'eventfull'
