This is my little corner of the world where I will share my dreams and aspirations.I will chat about my beautiful family and ramble on about whatever takes my fancy especially my love affair with red and white polka dots. I have decided life is too short to feel pressure so my journey will be a relaxed one and if you want to join me for the ride I would be thrilled to have your company.‎

Where did my blog title come from you ask????

Well Dawn suggested we might all like to tell each other where our titles came from so I thought I’d join in the fun.

I started blogging not long after my Mum passed away so thinking of a name for my blog , to me, had to incorporate Mum somehow.

So “The Angel” of course is Mum and the “Pukeko” is in reference to where we scattered Mum’s ashes. It is a wetlands area with lots of native planting and lots of native birds, one being the Pukeko.

I adore Pukeko’s because of course they remind me of Mum. They are a bit of a naughty bird though and the farmers definitely don’t like them and like to be rid of them but for me they are special.

So short and sweet, that’s how The Angel and the Pukeko was born.

Hugs to all, Debs xx

What a lovely tribute to your Mum Deb. I had no idea of the name behind your blog. Your Mum would be so chuffed that you honoured her in this way.
