Welcome Monday! Spring Break Ideas

March 26, 2012 By Elizabeth@ Pine Cones and Acorns 5 Comments

Welcome Monday!!! I had to say it with a little enthusiasm because I feel like I am dragging today, I think it’s the weather,  It is hot, hot hot, than cold, cold , cold! Is is Spring? Summer? Who knows?

I do know that my many of my friends and family are on Spring Break, doesn’t that sound fun? Are you on Spring break? If so are you going anywhere fun? I am not on Spring Break myself but it did get my mind racing, if I was where would I like to be? What sort of adventure would I like to go on?

Would I be at a resort and relaxing at the pool?

Or would I be in the city?

Taking in a few shows?

Taking a trip to Paris?

Or would I just stay home and tackle a few projects? I am not too sure which sounds the best, perhaps a combination?

Do tell what are you up to this week? If you are relaxing on the beach with a pile of books and magazines and a box of bon bons tell us so that we can feel as if we are there with you! If you are walking along the Seine in Paris after sipping a chocolat chaud and snacking on a few macaroons I definitely want to hear about that. And of course if you are at home working as I am I want to hear about that too?

I hope that you have a fabulous week!

    Hello Elizabeth:
    The city for us whenever we have spare time and whatever country we find ourselves in. We are toying with the idea of visiting Krakow……

    If I could take a break right now I would go to Rome or maybe somewhere in Sicily. But I will be at work and at home all week. So I will just daydream.

    We are cleaning the green gunk off our boat decks which winter has kindly left for us. I am keeping a watchful eye on John to make sure he doesn't overdo it. He thinks he's 22!

    Not yet Spring break for us, dear friend, but how fun to dream! I wish I could say I'm writing from Paris and picking up a jar of chocolat chaud for you 😉 This would be my destination of choice…April in Paris bien sur!
    Our weather is crazy as well…after a couple of summery weeks, it is so windy and cold today. I'm feeling for all of the flowers and fresh green leaves…
    Stay cozy, sweet Elizabeth..
    Much love,
    – Irina

“Learn to love and appreciate the good in others “Learn to love and appreciate the good in others.” Good afternoon friends, it’s the last day of February, which is called heart month, not only for Valentine’s Day but for heart health as well. Just because we are turning the calendar page doesn’t mean we should forget that A). We should love and appreciate each other and B). To take care of our hearts! Did you know that heart disease is the leading cause of death in women? Ladies if you don’t take care of yourself no one else can, eat right and get moving, cardio vascular exercise is great for your heart! Have a great day! #heart #hearthealth #vintagestyle #love #heartshaped #scrabbletiles #handmade #handcarved

“Chocolate is health food for the soul”~Mirand “Chocolate is health food for the soul”~Miranda Gray.

This is how I feel tonight, as if I am seeing life This is how I feel tonight, as if I am seeing life through the blur of tears and sorrow. Sunday night my friend of 34 years lost her husband of 36 years, because of Covid he did not get to meet or hold his newborn grandson. Then just an hour ago we received a call that my husbands best friend died of a massive heart attack this morning. Sometimes life just knocks you to your knees and all you can do is pray for the  loved ones you’ve lost, cherish their memories and let your time with them sustain you until you meet again. Then you ask God for the strength to get up and move forward. #life #loss #givemestrength #givemestrengthlord #pray
Although I see signs of spring, a daffodil popping Although I see signs of spring, a daffodil popping up from the ground, bright and colorful flowers in the garden center the weather and the calendar tell me otherwise. So I am hunkering down and taking solace inside enjoying the details of a collected home and life. This tapestry is a piece that we purchased over 25 years ago in Paris, it hang in the dining room and makes me smile every time I see it because it reminds me of such a happy and beautiful place. What do you collect? What brings you joy in your home? #collectedhome #collectedlook #homedecor #myhome #homesweethome #interiordesign #frenchprovincial #france #frenchdecor #tapestry #instahome #instahomedecor #acolectedlife #collection
Good afternoon friends, it’s a frigid day here. Good afternoon friends, it’s a frigid day here. How is it in your “neck of the woods?” We took a long road-trip a few weeks ago to the beautiful @colonialwmsburg . I love this place, there is so much to see and do and even wearing masks and social distancing you can still enjoy the history and the beauty of this living museum. Today I am home doing the weekend chores, and of course doing a little baking. I hope that you have a fabulous weekend. #colonialwilliamsburg #williamsburg #colonialhouse #livinghistory #livinghistorymuseum #museum #winterfun #roadtrip #wanderlust #weekend #weekendvibes #weekendmood

“If winter comes, can spring be far behind?” ~ “If winter comes, can spring be far behind?” ~Percy Bysshe Shelly  my answer to that is I hope not! This has been a strange winter and I am sure that for the 4 million people without power in19 states they are hoping spring is sooner rather than later. I hope that you are all well and keeping safe. I’m praying for all of you without power and heat and hope it is restored soon. #pinkaesthetic #art #acrylicpainting #painting #details #artistsoninstagram #artwork #artworld #color #artoftheday #quote #quoteoftheday #quotestoliveby #artofinstagram
