for today

for today...

outside my window... 50F/sunny @ 1:00pm

i am thinking... the Wall, shutdown, blackface, polar vortex *sigh*

i am thankful for... Punxsutawney Phil not seeing his shadow & forecasting an early Spring

i am wearing... black jeans, cotton shirt & Birkenstocks

i am going... for a long drive, while the roads are clear of snow

i am currently reading..."Practical Kindness," by Lara K. Heacock

i am hoping... to find Brach's conversation hearts locally

on my mind... gas @ $2.39/gallon, milk @ $2.25/gallon, butter @ $2.39/lb

pondering these words...

"Surely as cometh the Winter, I know

there are Spring violets under the snow."

~ R. H. Newell ~

from the kitchen... 

Italian sausages with grilled onions and red peppers

peanut butter crisscross cookies

around the house... cobwebs *eek*

one of my favorite things... Victoria, Masterpiece Theater on PBS

and Friday Fish Fry's during Lent (served on Ash Wednesday too)

i'm creating... the February Challenges @ The Lilypad and a new blog header

a few plans for the week... awaiting a load of firewood, empty ash pails

from my lens:

February Blackbirds
