That is a wonderful card from Jo. The sentiment is really true. Looks like life is good, especially since you have crocuses in bloom. March really hasn't been that bad of a month, at least these last few weeks. I'm going to go check out that book and see more of what's its about. I hope you had a great T day Nan. Hugs-Erika
Those bunnies are so cute. Crocuses are really beautiful! I just love that they symbolize spring with that splash of bright purple. Happy Tea Day, Kate
A beautiful card and a wonderful sentiment. We think it's rabbits that eat our crocus. But right before we left for Sarah's Tracy discovered all our daffodils in the back were blooming. Early spring for us! We took half to Matt, and brought the rest with us.
What a sweet card from Jo. She is such an adorable person.
I love your envelopes. You know how to turn a plain envelope into its own gift. Speaking of which, you have a true gift making this art.
I enjoyed seeing you in your family room watching soccer, enjoying a biscuit (cookie?), and drinking tea. Thanks for sharing these beauties with us for T this week, Nan. I realize I'm late visiting.
So glad that you liked the card, and the sentiment is so true 😉. I think spring must be finally here, those crocus look so beautiful! We have bluebells just starting to bloom here after the sunny days we've had the past week! Happy belated T Day wishes! Hugs, Jo x
I am a big fan of NPR and RBG and this book came highly recommended. It was refreshing to read about Nina Totenberg and her friendship with Ruth Bader Ginsberg, as well as with Cokie Roberts. I am sure this will end up on my favorites of 2023. I’ve been busy with some art projects, but always keep reading on my daily list of things to to. It’s my way of winding down at night. It’s always nice to curl up with a good book. Happy reading!
Nothing says traditions like a holiday...and in our house Birthdays have always been treated like holidays! We hold firmly to the belief that if there is a day you are ever going to celebrate, it's the day you were born. Luckily for Fi, her birthday is October 8, which coincides with Columbus day this year, extending the Birthday to Birthday weekend. We lined up all kinds of special treats, starting with a Half Marathon on Saturday, if you can call that a treat..followed up with some other birthday specials, breakfast out at our favorite diner, presents, bookstore coffee and browse around, made to order breakfasts and dinners, chocolate cake (yum!) and a wind down with one of our favorite hobbies on Monday... painting Halloween Vignette Years ago, I painted unfinished wood and sold it at craft fairs. Fi loved to go with me to purchase supplies and attend craft shows looking for ideas. Although it has been a long time since I have participated in a craft fair, we still hav
T stands for time together...in Ireland. Heading to Ireland for a mini break provides a welcome respite from hustle and bustle. It's a chance to enjoy life at a slower pace, and get outside and enjoy nature. There is no place that we find as peaceful, and walking the country roads never gets old. Fortunately the weather cooperated, and the days are long...daylight until almost 10 o'clock at night, which leaves plenty of time for walking everyday. Our range was between 6 and 13 miles per day, making the most of our time outside. Not many people on our route, but not short of company. The dairy farm and creamery is just down the road, so you know our milk is fresh! Sometimes, after a long walk, a cuppa and a biscuit aren't enough. One of my favorite places to eat is Brown's in Derry. Wine anyone? Yes, please! Seafood Chowder David's choice And dessert.... Brownie, Cream, Raspberry Sorbet, and Raspberries What's not t
