My Favourite Things . . .

A few of the things in life that make my heart go pitty pat. Maybe they will do the same thing for yours. ♥♥♥

 

Buttercups . . .  over here you get them by the meadow-full.  Do you like butter?  Did you play that game when you were a child.  The one where you put a buttercup under someone's chin and ask them if they liked butter? 

 

Cows.  They are the softest, gentlest animals.  Did you know my Todd used to be a cowman on a farm down in Devon?  I forget how many cows he milked every day.  He loved working with the cows. 

  

Misty mornings  . . .  you always know when the mist burns off you are going to be in for a lovely fine and sunny day! (Well, in the summertime at any rate!)

Red Gingham table clothes  . . .  to me they say, "Come, Sit, Eat!"  You are welcome here! 

 

Books. They have always been my friends, and I enjoy the classics most of all! 

  

Monogrammed Tea Towels, especially linen ones  . . .  and red and white ones  . . . 

 

Rose hips.  They are very good for you, you know. You can get rosehip syrup to take in the winter. Its filled with Vitamin C. 

  

Honey.  I adore honey, but I rarely eat it now because of my Diabetes. I especially adore Greek Honey, which has a slight aniseed flavour to it. My father loves honey also. 

 

Pretty glass perfume bottles  . . . 

 

Pearls and lace  . . .  I really do like feminine things  . . .  I guess that is because I am a woman. 

 

I love this blouse  . . .  I wish I was the size to wear one of these.  I would look like a table with a cloth on it if I did now.  But if I was skinnier . . .  sigh  . . . 

  

There's that pink hair again  . . .  it all boils down to courage . . .  and cash . . . 

 

I love copper, but I hate polishing it.  All the copper I had to polish all the time at the Manor cured me from ever having any of my own, but I do love to look at it  . . . 

  

Forget - me - nots  . . . 

 

Noodles  . . .  of any kind  . . . 

  

Simple Tea Pots  . . . 

 

1 Corinthians 13:4-8   Its one of my favourite scriptures  . . . 

  

China with strawberries on it.  This is Port Meirion Strawberry Fair.  My sister had some Denbigh stoneware with strawberries on it that I coveted . . . for many years, and have not yet repented of . . .  lol.

 

There's that ginghaam tablecloth again, only this time it is covered with lace.  I have those chairs, and probably the table as well . . . 

  

Nantucket style cottages  . . .  with slate siding, white picket fences  . . .  and front porches to curl up on  . . . 

And those are my favourite things for this week, what are some of yours? 

A thought to carry with you  . . .
