My blind date from the library. Hope it is good. I hate taking chances. 😀 #reading #blinddate #chances #taleswithfriendsShadows and light. The yin and the yang. You can’t have one without the other. #shadowsandlight #yinandyang #photochallenge #taleswithfriendsWorking on embellishments on the border. It’s learning as I go on how to keep it smooth and flat. Sometimes I resort to pulling and stretching. Definitely should have pinned each square to start with. But how was I to know before what I should have done? #tablecloth #border #embellishments #shouldhave #makingitwork #taleswithfriendsWe’re up and moving. Making bread. #upandmoving #breadmaking #taleswithfriendsGood morning. We are comfortable as we are. We will move - eventually. #morning #comfortable #sheba #taleswithfriendsStir fry eggplant with mushrooms. Garlic, ginger, a dash of chili pepper. Faking it. No recipe. #stirfry #eggplant #mushrooms #spices #norecipe #taleswithfriendsOur afternoon walk. Sunshine and snow. How could you ask for more? #afternoonwalk #sunshine #snow #taleswithfriendsEmbellishing the tablecloth border. It’s going to look better than I had hope for. I wish I could be more careful. Fabric bunches up and I’m stitching too many layers. Then it’s like hours of ripping. 😬 #tablecloth #border #embellishments #fancystitches #taleswithfriendsDim sum with mom and sis. Mom and I were posing for the first pic. Better when we’re not even though mom was chewing. 😀 Love those chicken feet and egg tarts. #dimsum #mom #sister #taleswithfriendsThe good, bad and ugly. The good - a neighbour snowblew the back alley and behind our garage as well. The bad - a scammer causing me stress and loss of sleep. The ugly - a lady banging on her window at me because I was making sure I was picking up all Sheba’s poo near her garbage bin. But I had put it in her garbage bin. Then she came charging to the door, face all red yelling at me. I felt awed. It was like watching a movie. The passions some people have for their garbage bin! I said sorry and no more. #thegoodbadandugly #goodneighbor #scammer #theugly #passions #taleswithfriends

LET SLEEPING DOGS LIE
I was so envious of Sheba this morning. There she was, asleep on the rug, not a care in the world, not a tense bone in her body – at perfect ease. That’s the state I am seldom in. But … Continue reading

GARDEN IN THE RAIN
On a rainy morning, I’m hearing Diana Krall crooning. I’m seeing past years’ garden in the rain. “T’was just a garden in the rain Close to a little leafy lane A touch of color ‘neath skies of gray The raindrops … Continue reading
AFTER THE HEAT
After a couple of days of heat, the clouds and the showers came. It was a welcomed relief for the garden and gardener. I took the opportunity to do a bit more planting in between raindrops. Two raspberry bushes went … Continue reading
