The Road Back

Good afternoon! I am back, but at a little bit of a loss for words…sharing a recipe seems sort of trivial.

So I think I will just share a few pins that I found this past month on Pinterest

Perhaps some inspiration for your Spring planting? Or something to dream about.

I hope you have a great day!

Hello Elizabeth:
As we simply love all formal gardens, these images, as you may imagine, appeal to us hugely.

“Chocolate is health food for the soul”~Mirand

“Chocolate is health food for the soul”~Miranda Gray. I could not agree more, it soothes the mind, body and soul in tough days and it helps to make the good days even brighter. On the blog today I am sharing Homemade Hot Cocoa mix, this easy recipe is from the fabulous Stella Parks of @bravetart , her blog was great, her cookbook is even better and you can now find her at @seriouseats . This hot cocoa is perfect for the remaining days of winter and we have a few, so come over and check out the recipe, then go and spend awhile looking at all of the beautiful creations of @bravetart #hotcocoa #hotchocolate #hotcocoamix #chocolate #winter #winterbeverage #winterdrink #chocolateislife #ilovechocolate #hotbeverage #food #foodporn #foodphotography #foodie #foodphotography #foodstyling

Grief is just love with no place to go.” Thank y

Grief is just love with no place to go.” Thank you my friends for all of your kind messages, thoughts and prayers. Even though it feels as if we are all alone in our pain it is a balm to the broken heart to have you walking along side of us. #grief #greiving #thankyou #kindness #friendship #kindwords

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

Tell me about your Valentine’s Day treats? Did y

Tell me about your Valentine’s Day treats? Did you bake something sweet or purchase something from a favorite place? Are you a cookie, cake, pie fan? Did you get a box of chocolates? I only like the caramels and the nougat, and I’m not ashamed to admit I’ve poked a few holes in the bottom of the chocolates I’ve the years to find my favorites. I hope you are having a wonderful day. #cake #cakesofinstagram #valentines #sweettooth #sweettreats #chocolate #chocolatecake #fudge #fudgefilledcake #ilovecake #valentinesday2021 #instafood #foodporn #foodie #food #foodphotography #balance #itsallaboutbalance
