Getting over a bad cold just in time for Christmas... a gorgeous and unexpected blanketing of snow... knowing that the next week will be spent cozying up with family and friends and good food. Wishing you all heartfelt holiday greetings - hope you all have a loving, warm, delicious weekend! Happy holidays!

A Christmas tree. Last year we couldn't get one, and I was pretty sad about it. I love opening dusty boxes marked "fragile" each year, admiring old pieces and welcoming new ones. The lights, the sparkle, the delicious pine scent... throwing patterns on the walls and adding a cozy comfort to the living room. Did I mention I love Christmas trees?! This one's never coming down. Have a wonderful weekend!

The first snowfall. It never fails - total magic. Of course now it's all melting, but Panda made the most of it while it lasted. Happy weekend and Happy Birthday to my dear sister on Sunday!! xoxo
Autumn Interlude
Some days just aren't worth mentioning. You wake up feeling awful, your to-do list is woefully uninspiring, there are no clean socks, your inbox is so clogged it needs medical attention. I could go on. Taking a vacation or even a day off would help - although that can be a tough challenge (both spontaneously and financially) for many of us. But an hour?
Yeah, sometimes all you need is an hour...
Even if it's just for a moment - wherever you are, allow yourself to take a breath.
