Good Tidings of Comfort and Joy

Good Tidings of Comfort and Joy

I am surprisingly Christmassy this year...panic has not set in yet and it really should have because I have not bought a single present yet in real life. I have a huge Christmas planned. Many of you know I welcomed my first Grandson to our family Christmas last year...he was all of 3 months old [...]

You and Whose Gingerbread Army?

You and Whose Gingerbread Army?

As this blog shows I have one foot in the festive season and one a little on the outside still. I really found the spirit of Christmas last year early on and this year it's a little slower but growing each day. A new round of Farmers Market has opened and this is an opportunity [...]

Granny Smith’s

Granny Smith’s

For me it's Tomato Soup, in a mug. Not any old Tomato Soup either, has to be Heinz, Cream of Tomato. That is the taste of Autumn to me. I believe everyone has a taste, or smell, that they associate with a season and lots of them are represented in the photo today. This photo [...]

Like everyone for the last 2 years vacation time abroad has been a pipe dream but it's one that is it a little closer today. In the week I am flying off to Naples, then on to the beautiful Sorrento, one of my favourite places on earth.  it's been a good 10 years since I [...]

C’mon Over

C’mon Over

Yesterday I made soup. The first batch of homemade soup of the season...yellow peppers and tomato soup. There was enough left over for lunch today. Tonight I had a hearty, autumn dinner. The food changes with the season and it's another reason that this time of year is one of my favourites. I love throwing [...]

Spring Laundry

Spring Laundry

I need SL and my therapeutic blogging more than ever! Being able to create beauty in a virtual world really is a 'breath of fresh air' right now. I spent a few hours yesterday going through the items I had received in blogger packs. I often see comments from creators about event bloggers 'taking things [...]

Apple Season

Apple Season

Good morning! Isn't is amazing how quickly we flipped from summer to full on Fall in Second Life. I know I was itching to do it so I am definitely not complaining, I'm not going to be writing a lot today. I have some news to share tomorrow about something exciting I'm doing but just a [...]

Ready For Spring?

Ready For Spring?

I know I keep banging on about being over winter in SL but I really, really am! I was happy to add a splash of colour and some spring feels into this photo. I am super behind with blogging while Salon 52 was coming together and tomorrow is the dreaded pantomime performance! Yikes - it's [...]
