Fab not Drab – Fanciful Footwear
Last Easter we had a family gathering at my Sister’s house. In addition to the pleasure gained from getting together as a family, it was an opportunity to enjoy her exquisite cooking. As well as being a fantastic cook my Sister has a mean eye for antiques and quirky artefacts. An auct
