My Personal Moments
- Are you a Downton Abbey fan? I’ve watched every season (at least once!) and it’s on my list of top ten all time favorite series. The full length movies are so entertaining and I can’t wait to see the newest and final one! If you’re a fan, I hope you get the opportunity to see it soon!
- Last week, Big Al and I, along with our lifelong friends processed 40 bags/cans of tomatoes. We add various peppers and onions and use them in our homemade chili throughout the year. It’s a delicious addition to our family favorite!
- It was a heavy week for many reasons. I needed to find a little joy in the simple things, so I started to rewatch All Creatures Great and Small. If you haven’t had the chance to watch, it’s a show that transports you to a place of simple joys, genuine kindness and breathtaking countryside views.
- I received some happy mail and wanted to share it with you! You may remember, I pre-ordered Home Again by James T. Farmer III months ago, and it showed up, this week. I truly believe it is the most beautiful home decor book I’ve ever purchased. If you’re looking for beautiful inspiration, look no further than his new book!
