Greetings Friends! Today, it's drizzling with a cold North-West wind. The rain is pelting down, so I'm sitting with the fire, a cat sprawled on his back and a sleepy pup. Although it's May, I'm content to be by the fire while the rain transforms our brown and barren landscape. We should really celebrate … Continue reading Flower Moon
Oh dear friends, I hope you are well! Our reality has been shattered over the course of the past month. A reality that so many of us had been living as if drifting through a dream.

Hello!! From a very snow blown island. The west facing side of our house is freezing cold and of course that's where I find myself. My small little work room is probably the coldest room in our house, with huge gaps between the old wooden floor boards and a large window facing the westerly … Continue reading Canadiana Toque and Snow Fall Warnings
"Come, ye cold winds, at January's call, On whistling wings, and with white flakes bestrew The earth." - John Ruskin January! One of my beloved months. For its stillness, thick blankets of snow, snow storms, crystal clear night skies and lengthening days.

Hello Friends! The year’s end! A new decade stands before us. I am so excited to start afresh – I really have always felt a symbolic restart with each new year.
