My Favorite Things . . .

 


Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens . . . these are some of the things in life that I enjoy, and which make me happy, inspire me, or put a smile on my face. Maybe some of them are yours too.  Let's share!


 


This. Because it speaks truth to me. 


 


Kittens  . . . they are so sweet and innocent.


 


Bread and Butter, fresh bread, soft butter . . . and sometimes jam or marmalade.


 

Pies. Any kind. Fruit, meat, etc. If it's in a pastry it's calling my name.


 

Blue and white quilts  . . .  I had to leave mine in the U.K.


 

Pretty dresses  . . . 


 

Jars in caps  . . . 


 

Pretty honey jars  . . .  and spoons.


 

Moonlit skies  . . . 


 

A kitchen garden  . . . 


 

A Peter Pan collar  . . . 


 

The delicious simplicity of a vanilla cake  . . . 


 

The creativity of others  . . . 


 

Rustic simplicity  . . . 


 

I see a heart, do you?


 

Tea kettles  . . . 


 

Buttons  . . .  I love buttons  . . . 


 

Counters wearing skirts  . . . 


 

Country roads  . . . 


 

Clotted cream . . . with scones and jam.


 

Colored glass  . . . 


 

Old seed packets  . . . 


 

Sunshine  . . . 


 

Stars  . . . 


 

Straw hats  . . . 

And all of you! You are my kind of people. 


And those are my favorite things for this week. I hope that some of them were yours also!


Eileen got moved into her apartment safe and sound.  I picked her up at 4 to take her out for supper. Afterwards I went back to hers to drop her off and make sure everything was okay with her television, etc. We talked a bit on messenger when I got home. I messaged her when I went to bed. I will give her a wake up message at 9:30 this morning.  She said she was lonely last night. That is to be expected. Hopefully she will adjust. Once she gets a cat that will change as well.

I never feel lonely. I am blessed that way.

A thought to carry with you  . . .

Cuppa Cuppa Cake


In The English Kitchen today  . . .  Cuppa Cuppa Cake. Three simple ingredients. From the film Steel Magnolias. Very tasty!


It was a very busy day yesterday in one way or another.  I got Eileen moved out, my oldest son called and we facetimed, and then just as we were ending that Douglas and his family arrived for a visit. Then I took Eileen, etc. Today should be a bit quieter.  

I hope you have a lovely day.  Be blessed. Don't forget!
