The owl and the pussycat

went to sea in a calming cup of tea...

Pop anything in beautiful packaging and I'm instantly drawn to it. The illustrations are so much fun and the shortbread biscuits are a delight. More expensive than your average custard cream, but well worth it. They bobbed about on the work surface for quite a while as they were just too lovely to recycle.

And the book that's peeping out is a little Penguin book that I picked up in a charity shop.

Such a simple yet eye catching cover from 1955.
