Mint?

I'm still in love with my Santa cup and while all other Christmas stuff is packed away he has been granted a reprieve.  I love him that much, plus he holds my peppermints. Gotta love a handy man.

Alien Visitation

So last Friday Tom heads about before the sun is up to find those garage sales bargains he so loves. He is gone less than a minute and my cell phone rings. "Go outside" he says "and bring your camera". Now I don't always do what he says, especially this early when I'm a bit (okay a lot) cranky but this time I did.

The sky looked ominous and surreal  like any minute a alien spaceship would land and we humans would be used as rocket fuel or something. I snapped this picture with my iPhone, my preferred camera and I did no post editing. This is just how it looked. Thankfully  it was just the precursor to a cold snap, no human rocket fuel today.  Whew!

Past to Present

There are time when an image can bring back a clear and vivid memory so real you touch it. So real you know you can close your eyes and step right into the past and wear it like a coat.

Tea with Him

Sharing Earl Gray Lavender tea and a very special lunch. One of my very best birthdays too

Christmas Lily

Tom bought a simple bouquet of red and white flowers at Walmart the day before Christmas. Not expensive but priceless none the less. I especially love how the white petals turn pale green at the throat of the lily. Yes, priceless.

It's a New Year

A time for new beginnings and reflections of the past. A time for new resolutions and keeping what works. And remember, every day is a gift, spend it wisely!

Goodbye for Another Year

Goodbye little snow people, have a good rest and I will see you next December!
