25 April


the good

tiny little grape hyacinths...

which I had to lie down on the sidewalk to capture.


the random

Boston really is beautiful at this time of year


the fun

I met up with some girlfriends in Boston on Saturday.

We walked down Newbury Street, we had lunch and a drink,

we walked the commons and through the public gardens....

 








Mosaic Monday
The good, the random, the fun
sharing his beauty
Monday musings
Monday mellow yellow
making your home sing

    Great photos of Spring Boston, and its fun to see the phone shadow in your group selfie! Sounds like a good time on a spring day.

    Last week during school vacation, we came off our country hill for the day, parked the mini-van in Wonderland (who wouldn't want to park in Wonderland?) and rode the T into Boston. Loved our day of Boston Beauty -- and the expression on the faces of my country boys as they ogled the tall buildings, ate massive sandwiches in a restaurant peopled mainly by business suits, and wandered the historical streets. Loved your photos!

    Those hyacinths are so lovely -- and I smiled at your comment that you had to lie down to capture them :)!

Abby and Hopie time

  ~ ~ ~ Abby and Hopie go to the beach. On Saturday my granddaughter, Abigail, asked if she could come to her Hopie's house all by herself. Of course, I said I would love that! Her older brother, Verne, wanted to go to a friend's house and her younger sister, Natalie, is too young to be away from mum for an overnighter. So...it was me and Abigail for the weekend. She wanted to stay 2 nights! I think she may have been slightly motivated by the need for some alone time and Natalie's late night crying. ~ We cooked homemade cornmeal waffles together for breakfast. When your grandmother is a Montessori teacher you learn to cut your waffles up by yourself. You can see the concentration on her face.  I didn't help at all! Verne's first day of Kindergarten! I drove up in the morning to watch him get on the bus! He loves it! On Monday morning Abigail and I drove back up to her house. My daughter, Hannah, came over with delicious donuts and Bonnie made a breakfast of bacon, s

a basket from the farmer's market

  A basket from the farmer's market. When I was a child my mum always had a fruit basket on the kitchen table.  Fruit was always an option if we were hungry at any time during the day. I had the same when my children were young and I noticed while visiting my daughter last week that she had a basket of apples on her table for her children. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree... I tend to put a basket of vegetables on the table as well.  Root veggies mostly since they don't need to be refrigerated.  I think that they look beautiful and why should fruit have all the fun! My favourite part is that everything (even the basket) came from the local farmer's market. It's so important to support local farmers.

On the table

 ~ ~ ~ A bit of reading material.  I've been collecting books again... I've almost finished Think Indigenous.  My daughter bought it as a gift for me but decided to read it first. She loved it so much it took her a bit to part with it. I am loving it as much as she did and have put it down almost all the way through  because I don't want it to be over.  Macro tex
