Rain On The Windows...

Just had a squall of  rain, and possibly hail, as the sun was setting.
As seen through my new windows.

Perfect Pears...

Funny how pears can be one or three...as well as two.

Looking For Love...

Same heart, new surroundings.

Still Settling In...

Still finding places to put things and deciding how best to use the spaces.I'm liking the old clock on the portable easle, and the crazy light fitting from the other house.

Settling in....After A Big Day.

Finally a bit of quiet, as you can see it's still a work in progress, but it's cozy.
I'm so thankful for so much help today...it does" take a village".
The sunset was so beautiful, and the heater works well.
I've cooked dinner and even had a little dance around the lounge room.

Heading Down A New Road...

It's time for the move, and time for some changes.
I'm not sure how all that will effect my bloging, hopefully it will be a smooth transition.
It's kind of exciting and daunting all at the same time.

Back Home Safe And Sound...

He's back at last and this is a beautiful drawing that he gave me
drawn by a Russian artist Yulia who he met in Edinburg.

Friday Flowers...On Sunday...

I've been too distracted to get these uploaded until now.
They are lovely, and smell beautiful as wall.

The Process Of Moving...

I've just started taking around a couple of bits and pieces to make it feel like home.

My new Kitchen bench.

Home For Lunch...

Home from work , not feeling the best, fortunately I made soup last night
 so all I had to do was heat it up, and butter some bread.

Lots To Think About...

The Sweetness Of Hope And Freedom...

Looking at the sweet interaction between  the concepts of Hope and Freedom

With Blueberries Strawberries and Pomegranate Cream.

Looking For Love...

It's important to connect to your heart, and to your past.
The trick is how all that relates and is translated to "your present".

Misty Morning...

The view from my back door this morning.

Cutest Story Ever...

This morning I was wandering around the web and found this utterly charming story/illustration 'thingy'.
Thought you might enjoy some old fashioned 'happy ending' stuff.

Marvelous Melbourne...

Re visiting some old photos that still show what a beautiful city Melbourne can be.

Friday Flowers...

Pomegranite Cream...

Squeeze the juice from a Pomegranite...you might need to put the seeds in a sieve.
Add the juice to some cream and whip it to form soft peaks.
Serve with Dried Cranberries that have been soaked in Spicy Berry Syrup,
and drizzle over some warmed Chocolate Ganache.
Top with flaked Almonds.
Delicious.

Angel...

A beautiful fresco fragment from the Vatican Museum.

Guest Post...

Today I received a postcard in the mail from the lovely "Mith C",
called " What's on my table..."
Thanks Buzza I love it.

Sticky Date Pudding...

Too easy and so delicious, just google for the recipe...

I Miss Max...

One's home and one's still away.

New View...

I'm in the process of moving, same area, just a bit of a downsize...
but this is the view.

What's On My Kitchen Bench...

The colours are lovely, and the Daphne smells fantastic.

Friday Flowers...

Still on my bench, still beautiful.

Jardin du Luxembourg...

Such a delightful place.
