Chickpea Soup with Ham

 Good morning,

My Honey made Chickpea Soup with Ham this week.  What's so great about a big pot like this is that it is good for two meals.  :)   Not only that, the house smells marvelous while it is cooking

Happy Winter!

Ice Dancing Dogs

 Good morning,

The temperatures have been above freezing for several days, but the ice is still here in our driveway.  The pups don't seem to mind and enjoy dancing, slipping, and sliding on it.

 Here Wendy and Bri are completing a twirl that is worthy of Olympic Gold!

Spring!  Where is Spring!

Red Roses

 Good morning,

My Honey went out to pick up a prescription this morning and also made a stop at the flower shop.

I got my Valentine roses early!  

Thank you, Sweetheart!  

Love and hugs,

Work in Process this Week

 Good morning,

This basket full of burgundy flowers will soon come together as a beautiful afghan blanket.

I took the picture at night with light from my dining room chandelier.  The pinks are actually lighter/brighter than they appear here.  When I take images to list the blanket for the shop, I'll use daylight.

Similar blankets are already in the shop ready to ship.

What are you making, baking, growing this week?

All the best,

Lois
