FOR TODAY, March 24th, 2021
Outside my window ...
I just witnessed the most beautiful sunrise. Brilliant roses and oranges in the sky. Who knows what the day will bring, but we have had some gorgeous Spring days so far!
I am thinking ...
How life has a way of surprising you. We really have no clue as to what each day will bring. I am glad we don't have crystal balls however. I don't think I would really want to know what comes next.
I am thankful for ...
Loving family and friends. The Gospel in my life. My health. My life.
In the kitchen ...
In the kitchen today, Indian Spiced Cabbage. This stuff is incredibly delicious!
On my "To Cook" list ...
Seasons and Suppers. Cinnamon Crunch Bread Pudding. Yummilicious looking!
One of my favourite things ...
Good to know ...
I am wanting to create ...
Design Improvised. Butterfly Wreath.
Flamingo Toes. Spring Bunnies Pillow.
Crafty Rie, How to crochet a pompom border. I like this.
The House Between Tides, by Sarah Maine
"Following the deaths of her last living relatives, Hetty Deveraux leaves her strained marriage behind in London and returns to her ancestral home, a crumbling estate in Scotland's Outer Hebrides, with the intention of renovating and reselling it as a hotel, much to the dismay of the locals. As she dives headfirst into the repairs, she discovers human remains beneath a rotting floorboard in the basement, with few physical clues to identify the body. Who was this person? And why the makeshift grave?
Hungry for answers, Hetty sets out to unravel the estate's secret--and those of its former inhabitants, including Beatrice Blake, a woman who moved there a century ago with her husband Theo, a famous painter who seemed to be more interested in Cameron, a young local man, than his own wife. Following whispered rumors and a handful of leads, Hetty soon discovers that no one knows exactly what happened to Beatrice, only that her actions have reverberated throughout history, affecting Hetty's present in startling ways"
I do love a good mystery!

Looking forward to ...
My old, new to me car. I will be bringing it home on Friday. Its six years old, but in good working order. I hope it last me for a good while. It will be nice to be able to drive again. Exciting but scary at the same time. I hope I haven't over-extended myself.
Dreaming about ...
Wings . . .
Candlelight . . .
Embroidered linens . . .
Bear lamps . . .
Light and airy . . .
Something to watch ...
Brigadoon . . . it just never gets old.

Crystal Falls, used to go here to swim with my friends when I was a teenager. Cliffs to jump off as well.
