Busy...Festive...Fun Week...🌟🎄🌟

What a busy busy busy week I had!!

One morning we had a wee snowfall, and the bright sunshine made everything glow!

I made a trip the "The Flower Store" that day, and picked up a few things...I then had a big mug of Apple Cinnamon Tea and berries and yogurt...I had also done a large grocery shop...
So the Tea was very soothing!!

I needed to make a small table arrangement for my dinner guests on Saturday night...

It was so nice and sunny... that ...Lunch was enjoyed taking in the beautiful sunshine... 

I always like to get my table set at least the day before...

I opted for a black tablecloth...and it really made the few ornaments POP...As you can see...

Love the rainbow on the napkin!!


I used a vintage green bowl for my White Carnations...

My daughter taught me the ways of using an oasis...and I love this method...

I simply added a few stray pieces to make it more Festive!! 

Simple....yet elegant!! I will make another for our  family Christmas table...but this fit the bill quite nicely...I am having my brother and his wife over next Friday for dinner, so I am hoping that this wee arrangement is still fresh and perky!! 

      
                  Friday's afternoon Sun made everything sparkle....✨✨✨

After that was done...I took a breather!!!

We were out Friday night to friends for dinner, so I wanted to get as much done on Friday as I could!!

The tree is coming along nicely...

I am enjoying not having to water it!!

                I even had time to start on a few Christmas cards...

Snacks for my guests were ready...

While my boyfriend puts on a few Christmas tunes...

Had a great meal...

Lots of laughs...

And...

The dessert...

Was...

Out...

Of...

This...

World...

Managed a rather blurry pic...but...I think you get the idea...😳

Today we are getting our first real snowfall...

Kinda pretty out there, but...I don't have to go anywhere!!!

My crochet is calling me, and once I get all showered, I have a date with the couch!!!

This cute White Throated Sparrow visited me this am...took his pic thru the window...

See his yellow stripe??

Think I will top up the feeders...

My view from the kitchen....

I just love my 
Miscanthus grasses...   all   year   round!!

When my Son got married in October, I brought home one of his table arrangements from the wedding...I rooted 2 succulents that were in it...they did really well, getting nice long roots...I have recently planted them in a vintage container...with stones from the cottage beach...and I added a small (phony) Steer Skull, that had belonged to my Mom...I have saved it for many years. I think it is just perfect, and I know my Son will love the presentation. I am gifting it to him ♥️

So...that is up to date with me!!

Hope you are all well...and enjoying the season...

The snow is getting a bit heavier right now...looks like an all day affair...

I will hopefully get a few nice snowy pics...the only good thing about SNOW is the pictures! hahaha!!

Have a great day and enjoy your week ahead...

Be back soon.....

                 Cheers!  :o)
