Two Thousand and Eleven
I’m beginning to write this, and I find that I have little to no idea of what to write. This year has been such a year of rush, busyness and of transition.I wouldn’t change it for the world, but there…
Lights
I was going to wait until Friday to post these photographs. Fully intending on hitting the publish button on my way out the door, as we left for a small family get-together with my husband’s family. And I hadn’t known…
Pinecones & Glitter

Rosy Cheeks and Knitted Scarves
I found the graffiti in the first photograph, while I was out looking for inspiration for Monday’s Picture the Holidays prompt, The View From Here. It was written neatly in chalk on the side of an apartment building at the…
