Our First Outing.

Little Zeke turned a week old, Daddy Wolfe and I ventured outdoors for our very first outing since coming home with out little bundle. Although Little Zeke didn't even realize he was anywhere besides his bed, Mr Wolfe and I thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The weather was so perfect, sunny and warm. We decided after sitting outdoors at the restaurant for way too long we would go hang out at the coffee shop.

On another note; I have totally been living off of this:





Ok, not just this but definitely a smoothie and Mother's Milk tea every morning. The Pavlovas are just an added treat!

Stay tuned for some Zeke sweetness!

A New Find for Baby's Room

Happy Happy New year....

I just wanted to pop in and say how much I LOVE his hands!

And the Race is On!

Things have been a movin' and shakin' around these parts....and twirling, winding, knotting and stomping! I received from my love a swift and ball winder for the Holidays and it has really revived some creativity around here, especially with knitting.







The baby blanket I was working on has come to an end...I think. I just need to tie up those lose ends and maybe put on a border. I haven't decided just yet, though I have decided it needs something else for sure.



Besides these piles of knits for baby and a pile of knits on sticks for baby Wolfe, my brother and his wife had twins, so there were some knits on sticks for those 2 lovelies also! Sometimes, I wish I could knit and sleep!











I loved knitting with this Alpaca so much I decided to knit up a little something for myself with the left overs.



I'll end with this:

A Boy and His Boots:



I think he is in love...

Until we meet again!

Kitchen Table and other happenings

A busy month it has been! Crafting, painting, gluing, writing, melting, baking, spinning....our hands have been moving.

Every morning till night time our table has been full of some kind of crafting. This particular day was our yearly peppermint bark. This year, time ran out before classes ended and my dearest mom came to the rescue, made some candies and hand delivered them for me...I am so lucky!
Mine got made eventually.

I made these darling little boxes after seeing them here. Mr Wolfe has 2 nieces that are new to me this year so I was very excited to make some girly gifts. . The boxes Oscar and I put together.

On another note, it snowed here on Christmas Day!! It hasn't snowed here in Georgia on Christmas Day in years....It was a real treat to share with Oscar and so beautiful.

Hope to put up more posts soon...my kitchen table is always full!

Kitchen Table Tuesday

So much to do, so little time. Filling out Holiday and Thank you cards, making the never ending lists, drinking lots of coffee and making dinner. All the while, my very patient young one stirs up an "after dinner drink." Yogurt, pomegranate seeds, orange juice, cocoa and who knows what else....actually tastes pretty good!

Thank you Oscar for simplifying my life and making me see that life doesn't have to be so hard.

Kitchen Table Thursday

Well, I didn't make it for Kitchen Table Tuesday, so Thursday will have to do.

Oscar and I finally sat down for a quiet evening of origami. Last year we made our advent calender of origami envelopes. This year I decided we needed something just a little different, something that could actually hold little gems. So, we went with cups. They were quite simple actually. Here is the link that I used.





With a little fold here and a little fold there, 24 tiny cups were made. They will actually hold water, though I don't suppose that I will be hanging any water, maybe some hot chocolate.

Lots of Holiday Markets to prepare for...so until we meet again, have a lovely week!

Catching up

I am way behind in writing, kind of how I feel in my life right now. It's time for Holiday Markets and that's all I can seem to do; make candles, make soap, knit and oh, make food



and lots of it for this growing belly!



I so enjoyed hanging out with my guy over the Holiday break! We slept in, had hot cocoa in the mornings, made things, took walks. I wish that we had more time together, but I am grateful for each moment I get to spend with him!





I am loving my new home, well, not so new anymore. I think I may love the kitchen most of all. I made myself a little nook in the corner since that seems to be where I do most of my work. I have just enough space, (I'll wish for more soon, I'm sure). With the kitchen table right behind me, it is almost always filled with lavender buds, sachets, soap, candles, cookbooks, lists, boxes and food.
So, with all the work I put our kitchen table through I would like to dedicate Today and every Tuesday to be Kitchen Table Day.
Without further adieu I give you Kitchen Table Tuesday.......



(just moments before I had been craving fried artichoke hearts and below is the next moment!)



He is so good to me! (love)

Until we meet again...

This Season

Fall, oh how I love thee. I love the energy you supply me with to get along with my day, for the cool crisp mornings, the warm teas I can now feel good drinking, for my birthday, close friends and family that surround and love me, for cool rides out to the countryside, and for the season for pomagranites!
I am feeling very grateful to be right here right now.

Missing You

I am returning after a long break. I have been thinking about this space for a while and really missing the time I spent here.
It took almost a year but I think things have calmed down a bit for a while.
Oscar and I have made our final move, (well, for at least a year) into a home not far from where we started. We are very happy here with a big yard, grass, clean water and enough space in our home to add a dear person to me, Dave.



We have been enjoying our new relationship, taking trips to the mountains, attending and vending at local Fall Festivals and busy making our new house a home.




Now, just a few things that on my mind, like here , here and here.
More on this later....

Until then
