Simply Fresh

For me white with a splash of green

is the perfect colour palette for a country style cottage.

This colour combination is so fresh and pretty ~

especially in Springtime when the garden 

is a mass of pretty flowers and full of new growth.

Thanksgiving Celebrations

 

Today's post has been inspired by Thanksgiving celebrations that are happening across the States this week. I love the idea of getting together with family and friends to celebrate and give thanks to the year's harvest. I think's it's important to reflect and be grateful for the simple things we often take for granted. 

I hope my American blogging friends are enjoying the lead up to Thanksgiving.

Cinnamon & Pecan

I have a real sweet tooth.

I love drooling over the cakes and pastries

in the shop windows of bakeries, cake shops and French patisseries.

I love pouring over recipe books and foodie blogs.

And although I only eat sweet treats on special occasions

 and in moments of desperation.

I love admiring them and dreaming about them!

Lazy Sunday Afternoons

I am looking forward to a lazy Sunday afternoon.
I have a blissful day ahead ~
with plans for a little reading in the sunshine
cooking up a big family lunch
followed by a long walk in the park.

That's my idea of a perfect day!

Garden Party in Green

Loving this fresh green garden inspiration.
Makes me want to set the table up for lunch outside
and enjoy a long leisurely lunch in dappled sunshine 
and the warm Spring air!
Happy Weekend!
