World Photo Day


Happy Friday!

Since it's World Photo Day, I thought that I'd share a photo. I took this back in 2013. I like the way that the tree branches scatter across the path as they simultaneously reach to the sky.

Have a wonderful weekend! :)

Morning Sunshine



I shared this picture on Instagram this morning and I thought that I may as well share it here too. I took this early this morning as the sun was rising and flooding diagonally into the kitchen window. The sunlight made the roses glow. These are from our backyard and are probably the last few for this year, so they're even more precious to me.

Have a great day and week wherever you are!

Book Spotlight: Learning to Fly by Jane Lambert


I'm very excited to share a great book with you today, by the talented debut novelist Jane Lambert. Learning to Fly follows the story of forty-year-old air stewardess Emily Forsyth. She has a wonderful, jet-set lifestyle and a handsome husband-in-waiting boyfriend to top off what seems to be the perfect life. Then one day it all comes crashing down as her dashing pilot boyfriend leaves her to 'find himself', or so he says. Emily takes stock of her life in the aftermath and decides to follow her dreams.

Happy August


It's a bit rainy today, here in my corner of Wiltshire. It feels more like early autumn right now, instead of the first day of August, but I'm okay with it. I have no choice, right? ;-) Usually by this time of the year I'm wearing a sweater and wishing that we'd have had at least a bit of warm during the earlier days of summer. Well this year has been different. We actually had some really warm...downright hot weather during July, so I'm satisfied...a bit of proper summer like my hubby would say :) So it's all good.

I took the photo above this morning. I love how the spiderwebs in the trees hold the raindrops and they're suspended in the act of dropping from the sky. I love nature's gentle, simple beauty.

Have a wonderful day wherever you are!
Happy August!
