Weekend Plans

January 18, 2013 By Elizabeth@ Pine Cones and Acorns 9 Comments

Good morning! I hope you had a great week. I did but I am ready for the weekend.  I have fabulous plans for the weekend; visiting my sister and niece where we will be doing all of our favorite and relaxing things. 

We will be snuggled in our favorite blankets, sitting by the fire, reading stacks of magazines and books. 

Then we will do a little baking, drink a little tea and perhaps take a nap.

After which we will go a nice long walk along our favorite trails. Sadly I do no think we will be seeing any snow but with the frigid temperatures that we are supposed to get one never knows. I have my fingers crossed. 

And last but not least we will be visiting all of our favorite antique stores, where I am sure that we will add to our collections. Lately I am like a moth to a flame anytime I see a piece of transferware so hopefully I can find a few pieces in my favorite colors brown and white. 

What are your plans? Will you be traveling? Baking? Working? Relaxing? Reading? Do you have any recommendations for books or movies, I am always looking for a good suggestion. 

Whatever your plans, I hope you have a wonderful and safe weekend. Enjoy!

    GOOD MORNING MY DEAR! I woke up thinking of you because we were able to upload season three episodes 1-8 last night of Downton Abby! WE SAW ALL OF THEM LAST NIGHT until Midnight! OH WHAT I HAVE BEEN MISSING! This is splendid, just a wonderful show.

    Well my weekend sounds like yours. Tea, rest, drawing and general relaxation until I make another three-day work week next week. Ahhhh….loving this all! Anita

    Hi sweet friend!

    Your weekend sounds
    divine. I am about to
    leave to meet a bunch
    of friends at our local
    pancake house. One of
    my good pals is in town
    {sadly, to attend her FIL's
    funeral, yesterday} so I
    cobbled together this little
    breakfast of her old gang.

    The rest of the weekend
    will be cozy and restful,
    a lot like yours, as we are
    heading into the deep freeze,
    tonight. High of -2 on
    Monday!

    Enjoy enjoy enjoy!

    xo Suzanne

    hi Elizabeth!
    I hope you and your sister and neice are having a wonderful weekend and found some great finds at the antqiue shop you mentioned. I love brown and white transferware too- and have always fought the urge to collect it (cuz lord knows I don't need another collection;) Loved how you described the snow- I couldn't agree more!

“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

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

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.
