Thought Full



Enjoying these summer months, hope you are too. Recently had a couple of visitors. Mom and Karen made the trek out to see us and the new place, so wonderful to spend some time with them both.
Loved the latest book, Delancy by Molly Wizenberg. The shortbread cookies she mentions in the book are super easy to make and wonderfully delicious!
Wanted to share an image taken along the river near here (top snap) and of course there are never enough images of our Tiberius - I love him so.
Enjoy the journey.

Summer Time




Greetings, it has been a while. Summer is upon us. We had one peony bloom this season, it paired beautifully with my otchipotchi vase (Paula is such a talent, http://otchipotchi.com/about). Generous family members have shared transplants from their gardens and all seem to be adjusting well to their new garden homes. Have had numerous visits with family and friends these past several weeks and celebrated my fortieth birthday. Still wrapping my brain around that one. So this past Friday was the big day and because I am back in Canada and my sister's sweetie was throwing her a surprise party, I was able to attend. It was the first time in probably ten years since my twin sister and I have been able to celebrate our birthday together in person, it was wonderful. Coming across a turtle last week was a treat, found it near my in laws home while returning from a day spent with my dear sister in law and niece.
More soon.
Take care.
Enjoy the journey.
