It’s a beautiful day in the neighborhood


~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~


The good is sitting by the herb garden on a warm and sunny day.

Warm, sunny days have been quite rare.



The fun was walking out to a little island just around the corner with my husband, brother, sister-in-law and there dog. We had to plan to get out there at low tide and there were a few other folks as well. Everyone was very respectful and remained 6 feet apart even though we were all wearing masks. We met just outside of our house and all wore masks...except for the dog who remained maskless. 


The random is a beautiful Magnolia flower on a street that I was walking down on the other warm and sunny day.

The good, the random, the fun

    You live in a beautiful place! I loved seeing the beach photo. Getting outside (socially distanced, of course) is such a good way to be with friends and family. We have started taking hikes with our son and grandsons. I thing beautiful weather has finally arrived in our location!

    I'm cherishing the sun when it appears. It does seem that this spring has been windier than most.
    Still waiting for a really warm day...

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
