Well, chin-chin thanks to you!



Well, I never...

Wow, really...?

Would you believe it...?!

A year now. 

One whole, extraordinary year. 

The Swenglish Home popped out like a confused and 

slightly wobbly blog baby a year ago yesterday. 

At first, not knowing much about the world or how to speak blog-ese properly, but curious to explore and discover. Soon grateful to find guidance and support in some lovely and experienced blog godmothers, and also surprised and delighted at others' kind words of encouragement. 

The toddler months passed quickly, and The Swenglish Home went from crawling to upright, still tickled to be part of this community of beauty and kindness. Practice makes.. well certainly not perfect, but perhaps something resembling improvement, and new ideas were tried out. The Swenglish Home found its own voice.

So here we are now, nearly grown up, childish enough to still want to play, greedy enough to still want to learn more. Grateful enough to want to embrace you all, for making this year an extraordinary experience.

Raise your glasses, please. This one is for you!

To those of you craving the recipes for last week's pralines, 

worry not, they will soon appear here, in all their sugary glory...

All the best,
Helena
