This song just keeps playing in my head! I do love that Amos Lee!

Nourished, Loved, Enriched
That’s how I feel tonight after this sweet weekend. I generally do not get any sort of seasonal funk, but this year the long string of cold and grey days with dirty snow to accompany them have just left me feeling a little listless. But yesterday, oh yesterday! It was divine!
Seeing and cooking for my kids and their banter at the table, soaking in the beautiful strains of Verdi and Mendelssohn and Dvorak’s The New World with a dear friend at my side, all framed by a full day of sunshine and bird singing and throwing off the winter coat for a jacket……..It was good soothing medicine that soaked in and settled me and gave me the courage to face the weeks left of wintery weather.

Why wisdom eludes me!
Wisdom is the reward you get for a lifetime of listening when you’d have preferred to talk.

Wednesday Link Love
Well, you can guess where this is headed! Really cool tiny houses AGAIN! First one I’ve found with a dishwasher AND a full size stove. Sold! And each of my kids can have one for visits and the last one can be for a friend I look after. Seriously, these are great little houses with a lot packed into their 500 sq feet.
Loving these bracelets! Am I too old? Tell the truth. Would my kids roll their eyes? I just really like them a lot. (The bracelets, that is. I LOVE my kids.)
These are pretty and look pretty easy!
A beautiful and poignant read.
Oh! Nella turned one, and what a great party she had!
Once again, I bring you food on a stick. Just drawn to it!
Oh, how very fun it would be to make these for a gathering!
This is a fun idea. More fun I guess if you are having a baby.
Warning on this one: you could waste spend a whole lot of time here dreaming up fun vacations with really cool lodging!
If I can’t be snowbound….
Then bring on some Summer! Not like August Summer, but like late June/early Julyish. I want to see fireflies, eat homegrown tomatoes every day, sit on my porch in the evening and catch up with my neighbors, drive with the windows down, and spend my Tuesday afternoons at the farmer’s market.
What are you longing for about Summer on these grey winter days?
