What I'm Reading ….again.

I love my fire. 

 Perfect with hot tea and a good book.

I have read the Mitford series of books and loved them.

I read one of the latest books in this series…"Come Rain or Come Shine"  and did not want it to end.

So, I decided to start reading the series of books over.  It is even better the second time.

The  beginning text  from At Home in Mitford : "He left the coffee-scented warmth of the Main Street Grill and stood for a moment under the green awning.  

The honest cold of an early mountain spring stung him sharply.  He often noted the minor miracle of passing through a door into a completely different world, with different smells and attractions.."

I totally understand walking through the door to a different world. 

My Brown Dog says "Hi" to you all.

Stitching By The Fire

I'm not fond of cold weather!     

But I love to stitch by the fire.  It's a favorite activity.

I am stitching my blue 9 patch quilt.  

All by hand and I am almost ready to stitch the borders!

Did you notice my Wool Wrist Pincushion?  

The arm of the chair is a perfect fit!!

What I'm Reading... Have Mother, Will Travel

"Have mother, will travel" by Claire and Mia Fontaine

This is a good book for anyone who likes to travel and (or) especially for anyone who has a grown daughter.  Funny, touching and spot on in many ways, as far as mothers and daughters go together!

Click to Enlarge this list from the front of the book.

On the left is the Mom's  (mine!) to do list before the trip.

On the right is the 25 year old daughters list!

Bon Voyage!
