watching




leafy




first world problem

we have had a glorious past few weeks and so I struggled with this particular prompt

even our cell phone service has been uninterrupted 





still

all was still as we came to this spot in the wood

we sat for a moment and listened to the leaves falling


a good day

Joe and I went apple picking with my daughters and his sons

it's fairly rare that we all get to be together

but when we do it's a great big love fest!!

    The photo of "still" with those leaves -- magnificent! I also love the one of the young people going apple picking in the fall woods. Great perspective. I can imagine you all had a wonderful time!

    such wonderful fall colours, and I love picking apples, then eating too many and getting a tummy ache, I don't think I've missed a year of doing this since I was 7..I love the photo of the children..

    I hope I've not asked this before but is that a Friesian horse? It's beautiful and the day with your family sounds delightful. Nothing much better than spending a good day with family.

    Lovely pictures. Especially leafy! That's a good first world problem! I struggled with that one--and it didn't really fit in the end. Perhaps that is my first world problem! Have a great week!

First Snow

  Happy birthday to my beautiful daughter, Bonnie. She brings me so much joy. My first snow day of the year! I work at a Montessori school and we are getting our first big snow storm of the year so.... SNOW DAY!!  I made my own hummus last weekend. It was delicious. I added a little bit of turmeric along with the chickpeas, lemon, tahini, and garlic.  I plan on eating a more plant based diet this year. It's only been a week and I'm already feeling better. I did eat two slices of mushroom pizza last night and ended up having heartburn so it will be a good long time before I eat dairy again.  Each month one of our families brings in a bouquet of flowers.  We cut most of the stems off and place them on a tray which we place on the children's table.  We place another tray with a very small pitcher and a few very small bud vases.  The child fills up the pitcher using water from the bathroom sink, brings it back to the table and pours the water in a bud vase of their choosing.

Oh Little Town of Bethlehem

Image
  My daughter, Hannah's house is just so pretty. It's a large, Victorian era duplex with beautiful light. Some of the windows have been replaced but there are a few old leaded windows that are old and beautiful and the light is so soft that I am always taking pictures. This is an sweet old table that she picked up in her travels. She put some vintage Christmas ornaments in a terra cotta pot and next to that is a lemon tree plant. The whole thing sits under her kitchen windows. So pretty. My husband and I went to her house on Christmas morning. She served us delicious French toast and mimosas. ~  A friend of mine flew over Marblehead on her way home from vacation and had the wherewithal to take a photo.  It made me think of Oh Little Town of Bethlehem.  This year I was able to purchase a poinsettia through my church in honor of my mother. It was comforting to know that she was represented during the Christmas Eve Mass. I had a chance to rearrange the living room a little bit. I
