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. Th
Such lovely inspiration!

Oh my is this a plant you couldn't leave outside to die? And it will reward you with its weak breath and anemic growth? I too have such a one in my dining room window. And I love it's tiny flowers. We saved each other through this frigid winter
ReplyDeleteNice post again
Just lovely!
ReplyDeleteI can picture the serenity of the scene you describe. Early morning is my favorite time. I love your image. We have a zonal geranium that we brought in for the winter. There's not enough winter light for it to bloom, but I'm enjoying the "aliveness" of it, nevertheless. Thanks for visiting my blog and leaving kind words behind. It brought me to your lovely blog. So very peaceful here. It looks like you live in a beautiful place. Water always soothes my spirit. xo ~ Nancy
ReplyDeleteLovely to see the green! I've been debating the purchase of a plant or two - seems odd given how frigid it is outside....but seeing this I'm thinking YES! The added green inside would be wonderful!
ReplyDeleteSo pretty! I love the watercolor look.
ReplyDeleteSuch a happy piece; love the editing on this shot....
ReplyDeleteGorgeous watercolor! Can't wait until I have scented geraniums in the garden again! Thanks for sharing with SYC.
