Home!

Home!… back to our little bastion… of warmth, and solace and quietude and of do what you want whenever you want… 


...home to your everyday white dishes and little white kitchen equipped to your ways and needs...


...and in your bedroom, the big cushy floppy white cloud of a bed covered in pillows… the ones that have the right shape under your neck, the ones that always maintain the form of your head in the perfect softness—keeper of your best dreams and desires. 


And in the morning… well, what a surprise it was waking up to a ruffle of white powered sugar all over the land.



Birds are nowhere to be seen.  Squirrels are cozying up together in their dreys, up high in the forks of trees and rabbits in their warm and cozy burrows are sleeping the day away…



And I… well, I am also getting ready to embrace some much colder weather.  Yikes!  ;)  Yes yes I am off to the house in the roses tomorrow!  Burrrrh!  Don’t ask me why I chose to fly there in February… boy what was I thinking! ;)


I had to buy a new winter coat because I gave mine away when we moved south thinking I was not going to use it ever again... duh! And I got these cute above the ankle boots… pretty lace top legwarmer boot topper, new necklace and the warmest chunky knit winter scarf ever… so soft too!


Off I go to our old dear place, to winter whites and skies with cotton candy tints and to the girls who keep me smiling and with a heart full of sunshine.  And perhaps… hoping and dreaming of walking the lonesome winter garden of my yesterdays too…


See you all soon!

  3. Yes, I used to love the welcome my home gave to me when I'd been gone a long time. It seemed too beautiful for words to express, and I always felt happy to return.

    Have fun with your fairy grandbabies. If you see the House in the Roses Garden, give it a big mental hug... Love you much!

  4. The little white cottage looks so warm and cozy inside! A comforting shelter from the cold and snow. Have fun at the house in the roses, I bet the roses there are sleeping the winter away right now. Hope you can get some photos to share!

  5. Your garden is so beautiful, even in winter. I love the new pergola by your patio. Have you ever thought of building a moon gate by the bridge to your magical forest? It would be perfect and add to the mystery.

    1. Sherry the new pergola... isn't it grand! Hubby built it for me before a few days before I left... can hardly wait to see some lovely climber growing there...

      Much love
