Winter is coming...

It most definitely feels like it with the constant (and irritating) rain. The dog walks are becoming haphazard runs around the block during  breaks in the weather.









It's could and I've broken out the polar fleece.

Will change the sheets to the flannel ones on the weekend wash.



I even had a nip of Aquavit the other night as a warming treat (doctors orders I'm to behave myself so only one!)








Where are those charming crisp autumn days?

The only upside is my favourite flowers have already hit the $7 pricing.

And the meals are becoming a little more 'comfort food' though as I'm meant to lose weight, that's probably not a good thing!


Are you enjoying this fast slide from summer?

  7. What a lovely rose. Sorry it has been raining there. Here we need rain badly, since we are in a drought and can only water our yards and flower beds once a week. You have a darling dog.

    I've never heard of Aquavit, but I'm glad you are moderating yourself. Thanks for sharing these lovely flowers and your Aquavit with us for T this week, dear Lydia.

  10. We are at the beginning of summer here in Florida but I do like season changes...and comfort food of course!

  11. We are sliding into those unbarably hot and humid days of summer when an ice packed glass of water will become warm in five minutes flat, and the only thing walking around in the middle of the day is a tick looking for lunch. I do love your gorgeous blush rose with its little green friend.
