Have another cup...

Have another cup of tea, or perhaps some java? There are so many vessels by which to drink a hot beverage, especially first thing in the morning. My tea cup of choice is this one. It's a good start to my day.



I love this Mary Englebreit mug. It makes me happy first thing in the morning - very cheery. What is your cup of choice?

Spring Flowers...mmm not quite yet!

It happened.

Just when I was beginning to see signs of Spring in my garden, bam, we were in the midst of a two day blizzard.


Even now as I write, we are still getting mini snow falls.

I was sitting in my room this morning reading (every woman needs a room of her own -thank you Virginia Woolfe). I would occasionally look out the windows and see a very beautiful and peaceful sight. Snow falling from the third floor is nothing more than a visual delight. Of course, if one has to travel in it, well, then it may be not so pretty. However, if you're sitting in a cozy chair with your feet up on an ottoman, reading a good book, with your knitting bag by your side, and no place to go, well, life is good! I do miss seeing my Marionette daffodil leaves popping up, Rosario irises starting to grow, and Tulip leaves. I believe they will make it through this. The snow is just part of the winter season, so take heart; spring is on its way soon.
