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!   


 

Enamel ranges  . . . 


 


Reading next to the fire  . . . 


 

Reading in bed  . . . 


 


Pretty tea cups  . . . 


 

Sweater weather  . . .

Coloring and painting  . . .  


 

Border collies  . . .  this reminds me of our Jess. She was a sweet dog.



 


A hot bowl of soup   . . . 


 

Good olives  . . . . 


 

Warm mittens  . . .  especially homemade  . . . 


 

Clean, bright, organized  . . .

And those are my favorite things for this week. Maybe some of them were also yours?

Malva Pudding


In the English Kitchen today I am sharing an old recipe for Malva Pudding. This is a recipe that I got from my friend Tina several years back. It's South African and delicious! A sweet cake soaked in a creamy butter syrup. Served warm, spooned into bowls with lashings of cream, custard or a scoop of ice cream.

I hope you have a beautiful day today. One week down. Counting the days and enduring. Each night when I say my prayers I thank God for three blessings received during the day just spent. That is helping. Focusing on the good. I will try to get to emails and comments today.  

Don't forget!

  1. Lots of lovely favourites, Marie. If you have passed the kidney stone, maybe you could have the stent removed earlier than the six weeks? Hope so. Love and hugs, Elaine
