Winter Comforts

These chilly winter day's have kept me inside much more than I would like...
The sun came peaking out yesterday and for a brief moment we
caught a glimpse of spring...

Sadly it was all too brief and today is cold, wet & miserable. A good excuse

to remain under the blankets reading a good book...

via

I am however making the most of it baking heart warming goodies in the 

warmth of the kitchen...

via

via

and snuggling up on the sofa watching re-runs of Sex in the City...

via

 drinking too many cups of tea...

via

 and hoping this is the last that winter has to offer.

Have a fabulous week...

Greenery For The Home

 Today I am loving the look of cut tree branches in the home...

 especially when they are covered in spring blossoms...

gorgeous with white & the rustic textured wooden tables...

and if the blossoms are not out just yet...

via

a simple bouquet of olive branches will do...
