Winter

"Winter is the time for comfort, for good food and warmth, for the touch of a friendly hand and for a talk beside the fire: it is the time for home." {Edith Sitwell}

And, lots of baking :)

"You can't wait in the Forest waiting for others to come to you. You have to go to them sometimes." {A.A. Milne~ Winnie the Pooh}

Emma's room~ the place where there are endless cute & pretty things to photograph.

Today is one of those days I just want to stay inside with a hot drink and wear leggings and a sweater. Actually, I should rephrase that... today IS on of those days I am going to stay inside with a hot drink, wearing leggings and a sweater ;) It's dark, and very rainy, and I'm so glad I did my grocery shopping yesterday. So, the kids and I will do school work, and I am also going to try a new recipe for Creamy Tortellini Soup~ now how's that for a wintery day?

"The real things haven't changed. It's still best to be honest & truthful; to make the most of what we have; to be happy with simple pleasures; and have courage when things go wrong." {Laura Ingalls Wilder}

Little Mittens

This little guy is one of my very favorites in my snowman collection for two reasons~ first because he was a gift from my oldest daughter, Jossalyn. And secondly, because of the mittens~ I love mittens, too!! And the fact that there are three sets, and I have three kids makes it just perfect.

Snow Folks

I took some pics today of my ever-growing snowman collection. I just love them...they are so cute & cozy, and bring the feel of a snowy winter to our house. I love snow, but we don't get much here, even when it's really cold, so I like to at least decorate for a snowy, wintery feel. Cinnamon scented pine cones are another winter favorite for me as well as a new candle scent I found- Maple Pumpkin. It smells amazing!

I used one of Florabella's snow overlays on this.

I love tea, probably as much as I love coffee. And my favorite right now is 'Gingersnappish with Lemon'. So yummy!
