Roses, Robins, Radio City & Rhubarb!

Hello my sweet friends! Welcome to NatashaInOz.com!


Before I begin my post today I just want to thank the following beautiful people for hosting such wonderful linky parties each week. I am so grateful for the time and effort you put into hosting your memes each week...

Thank you so much to:

Holly from 504 Main who is hosting I'm Tickled Pink!

Thank you!

Righteo....

On  to the letter R!

Red Robin!
(I took this picture just outside Blarney Castle in Ireland)

Radio City Music Hall!

Relaxing by Waikiki beach!
Images from here, here, here, here and here. 

R is also for 
a Recipe for 





Rhubarb and Rosewater Eton Mess from The Delicious Miss Dahl




Isn't Miss Dahl divine and what about that kitchen!!!!?????  Did you know that it is a prime piece of Real estate? Owned by photographer Paul Massey, the kitchen is the centrepiece of a three-storey, five-bedroom house in Crouch End, north London and is now on the market for  £1.45 million!!



Look at these Rooms!








I don't happen to have a spare 3 million dollars but I just thought I should let you know...


Yep, that's the kind of gal I am!

I hope to see you back here on the weekend to listen to my latest favourite song!

Best wishes,
Natasha In Oz

Melissa said...

Your robins are so much prettier than ours which are really thrushes that satisfied the homesick British need for a robin in the spring.

The roses are pretty and I would love some rhubarb about now!!

You have such a knack for these letter posts.

R's and that apartment...

Hello big sister. John and I want that kitchen! It is in fact the one that we have envisioned as being ours for oh so long! I love the floors, the cabinetry, the dining setting, the colours. Please keep this post forever as I want to come back and drool again and again and again and again...

I really love your rose collage.

Mimi said...

Natasha, the roses are stunning, are they yours...I am jealous!

mya said...

Catching up on reading your last few posts.
Great idea to let the kids have a go; before you know it, they will be letting you have time on their own blog.
Lavender is one of my favorite scents, so really enjoyed your notes. Not enough sun to grow them in my yard, but we used to have a store that sold fresh lavender - used to.
R is for rest, and that is what I am about to do; but my gang is Really Ready for supper - that will have to come first.

Karen said...

Your opening is just so sweet. Thank yo for linking up (I was so nervous to start a linky party!). Relaxing in Waikiki sounds divine right now. I have never heard of Ms. Dahl she is lovely! And if only I had an extra 3 million (hmmm...I know someone who just won the lottery...should I ask...no!)

Holly

Steph said...

I'm so glad you posted the Raffles. I hadn't thought of it and I love it and other Singapore architecture. Your R post is lovely. The robin picture is precious and the roses (my favorite in the collage is the far right, 2nd from top)! Neat photos... New York... and Waikiki.

Ginny Marie said...

So many great "R's"! My mom's favorite flowers were roses, so that's my favorite R! Your rose collage is beautiful!

Happy SITS Saturday Sharefest!

Love your choices for R. The robin picture is really beautiful. And that kitchen is amazing! If I happen to stumble upon a spare few million, I might have to look into that house :) Kathy

Jenny said...

Wow! What a really wonderful R stop on our little journey through Alphabe-Thursday!

It is posts like these that make it so fun and worthwhile to host a meme like this!

I smiled through all your pictures...the lovely roses...that hotel, the beach, the recipe!

Just a wonderful, wonderful stop on this Sunday morning!
