A chilly rainy weekend, a driveway circle in transition, and some wonderful things to watch and follow It is 48 degrees this morning and it is going to rain. Again. Yippee — we need it, so I will not complain. I am sitting with my drinking chocolate, listening to it drizzle, and thinking this is…
Three films, Monty Don, and Kristy Woodson Harvey’s new novel It has been one of those weeks. Pisa had an ear infection — which meant two vet visits, ear drops twice a day, and the outrage of a dachshund who could not hear and was sick of the vet and me. Then Paris and Patches…
