Living. Lovely. ~ Out of Context Lovely


“It’s not that bad. I’m not saying I’d like to build a summer home here,
but the trees are actually quite lovely.”

(Quick… what’s that from? Grin.)

Did you

Discover Out-of-Context or Unexpected Lovely

If you didn’t, watch this video and it will have you smiling all day long.

(I apparently have a fondness for train stations this week.)

(Thanks, Debi, for sharing this on Facebook!)

Or, we could go with one of my all-time favorites (moment and song):

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I shared photos, yesterday, of the glorious morning Shannon and I had on Tuesday for our walk/run.

Most mornings have been dark, foggy, and/or raining, so this unexpected brilliance was bliss.

(I promise to move on and share something other than sunrise photos tomorrow. Grin.)~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Next week’s Living. Lovely. challenge:

Savor Slow Food

As the days grow short, some faces grow long. But not mine.

Every autumn, when the wind turns cold and darkness comes early, I am suddenly happy.

It’s time to start making soup again.

~Leslie Newman

Slow food will be different for each person (at least for this challenge).

For some of us, a can of soup and Bisquick biscuits will be slow(er than normal).

Skip the drive-through and savor some slow food this week!

Or go for the gusto… simmer a pot of applesauce,

get your hands dirty and kneed some bread dough,

make your own hummus and dip fresh veggies,

challenge yourself with a new recipe,

put some time into a beautiful dessert…
