Happy Easter Eve

Happy Easter Eve! 🐥

Hurry up and get those eggs dyed 🪺 to be hidden and baskets out to await chocolate and jelly bean and marshmallow peep surprises, because as Clairee Belcher says, “It’s almost time for the Easta’ Bunny. Run on down!”.

{Mary Tyler Moore | 1960s}

Happy Valentine’s Day

Although today specifically is a celebration of love, don’t forget, there are still 364 other days in which to celebrate L-O-V-E in all its many shapes and forms. 

May today find you surrounded by love. Whether you are celebrating loving yourself, loving another, or simply being loved.  💋

Happy New Year’s Eve

So much has happened in the past 365 days and then again so little. This year has had its challenges and still more to come. But we stand waiting for the New Year, hand in hand and shall face what the future brings together. We walk in faith.

May this coming year hold peace, love and light for us all. Wishing you love as we kiss this past year goodbye and open our arms in greeting to the new one about to dawn.

The In-Between Days

And now is the time we continue to make merry on these most sacred of days as we soak up as much as we can from the time that is left in this year before crossing the bridge into the new. 

And this New Year is going to bring big adventures and a lot of changes for us.  So for now, we’re visiting with loved ones, we’re relishing in the quiet, we’re moving slowly and thoughtfully and drinking in all this year has left to over. 

We’re cobbling together sandwiches with leftovers. We’re watching old Christmas movies while working on jigsaw puzzles. We’re going on long walks and drinking in the fresh air only to race home for hot chocolates. We’re dancing in the kitchen and making Christmas cocktails. 

We’re taking a breath, as we stand on the cusp of what has been and what has yet to be.
