Happy Chinese New Year! The Year of the Rooster

It feels as though it's officially 2017 now! Hurrah! I really love the Chinese Zodiac- it's definitely one of the more culturally romantic aspects of Chinese culture. Roosters, especially, have such vibrant colours- I couldn't resist! This year I'm going to try to procrastinate less, and get everything done!

This week

We had to look after the neighbour's chickens again. They've had so many chickens over the years, different colours, shapes, and sizes that I lose count. Even though they only have two now (the fox got the last lot), I feel kind of nostalgic. My mother kept a photo library of a lot of the chickens that they had, so now I've made a pattern out of some of them!
