With Spring in my step

Walking through Paddington this morning I spied the first of this year's freshias pushing their pretty scented heads through a wrought iron fence. Not so pretty  -  the appearance on Oxford Street of what can best be described as "Poo pants"  - those casual light weight baggy pants with a dropped, low slung crutch line. Women out there be warned this is not a good look from behind. It may be a fashion statement but it's certainly not flattering.
The reason for my morning walk - to view London based master ceramicist Jennifer Lee's bowls and pots. Things of great yet simplistic beauty, sculptured to achieve visual perfection and priced from $2,500 to $15,000 (pictured). All are timeless collector's items.

Life  always opens up for me after a good cup of coffee. At today's cafe of choice, a Sydney Institution, I perched on a pavement stool at Bar Coluzzio in Darlinghurst Road, Darlinghurst  watching the passing parade and savouring their truly aromatic brew. I'll be back as it was a happy experience.
