It’s time for a Winter Warmup Giveaway, I think! I like cozy evenings and I enjoy hot drinks and cuddling into a blanket, but I won’t mind when warmer days and spring sunshine starts filtering in and coming to stay. It’s still a little early to think spring, but it is getting closer! In the […]
Winter Centerpiece
We had friends eat with us a couple of times recently. I always enjoy setting the table and taking time to add a few touches that we don’t do everyday. Although, I must say it is also fun to make the table especially pretty now and then just for my family. Anyhoo~ I usually want […]

She held her newborn baby And she gazed upon His face, His little nose, His tiny ears, His cheeks her fingers traced, His thatch of hair, His baby hands, She snugged him up so tight, And noticed how the stardust, Shone around Him, ah, so bright!

Savoring Trust
I watch the steam rising from the cup. I savor the smell. Hot chocolate with a splash of coffee. I warm my hands as I wrap them around the outside of the mug. It’s cold outside and it’s a gray day and darkness creeps in earlier than usual. The candle I lit in the morning […]
