Since I've bought it and moved into my little house in February 2005 I was thinking of a pretty name for it. I so love houses and gardens with names, I think it makes them more special and beautiful, don't you think so? But I didn't came up with something really appropriate until I talked it over with a close friend and my mum yesterday. My friend told me that in England it is common to call a terraced house (small row house like mine) situated in the suburbs near to the fields and woods a cottage too because "cottage" just means "small house" or small country house. Well my house is small for sure (it's only 4,50 metres wide) and I live in a very green suburb only 2 minutes away from the fields and woods. Then all of a sudden my mum said that she had a good idea and stated that what I have the most of all in my garden, in the front and also in the back yard, is box wood, so why not call it "Box-Wood Cottage"? Oh my yes, why hasn't that crossed my mind before! I knew at once that's it! My little house has a name :D!

So what do you think about houses and names and the name I chose for my little house?
P.S. Blogger is playing up again and won't let me post anymore pictures in this post. You can see more of my box wood pictures in my archives for example on 7th June 2006.
