My favorite things . . .

 

A few of the things in life that make my heart go pitter pat. Maybe they will do the same thing for yours. ♥♥♥    I'm pretty sure however, that these things mainly make my own heart sing.  

Sorry for my absence yesterday. I had to go to hospital early in the morning for blood tests and then just did not get back on track!  I hope nobody worried!  Sorry about that!

Baby ducklings.  They're so sweet. There used to be a pond in Matfield near where I lived in Brenchley. Every spring there would be ducklings and goslings. There was even a sign on the road that noted their crossing. So adorable.

I used to love ordering seed catalogues and planning gardens.  It was so much fun.  I wish I could find someone to do my garden here. I will have to ask the girl down the road if she knows of a gardener that could come and clean mine up.

I love LOVE drying racks. I keep saying I am going to buy one, but haven't yet. I would love to be able to dry my laundry outside to get that fresh smell.

Here are my two munchkins this morning, still squeezing into that small basket.  Its a good thing they love each other! 

 

What a difference from last summer!  My how they have grown!  

 

They both used to sit on the TV tray with plenty of room to spare!! 

 

 

And in the bowl on the coffee table.  Its hard to believe now!  Oh my how I love them!

People will forget what you did,

but people will never forget

how you made them feel.

Is it just me, or do you feel guilty feeling happy when there is so much tumult in the world?  I feel guilty feeling happy.  I know I shouldn't but I do.  

 

In The English Kitchen today   . . .  Air Fryer Turnip Fries. These are amazingly delicious!  I couldn't stop eating them!!

I hope that you have a beautiful day today. It started off overcast here but the sun is coming out now. Whatever you do today, be safe, be happy, be blessed, and don't forget!
