and other comforting things…….
a quilt on the couch
cookies in a pretty tin

a cobalt blue vase
vintage silver spoons in a jar
sunflowers
lip pomade
apples in a wire basket
a framed valentine
coffee in a french press
a small desk by a window
a white cashmere scarf
red geraniums on the porch
clean windows
blue-and-white china
embroidered tea towels
red gingham placemats
a framed recipe
flowers in a marmalade jar
a picnic basket
hummingbird feeders
aprons
a bowl of lemons and limes
using the good dishes
a tin of tea

a red sweater
letters tied with a ribbon
a lacy hanky
an old recipe box
a brown betty teapot
mismatched creamer and sugar bowl
homemade apple butter

you are the whispered sweetness behind the well-lit window of a beautiful day……you are the whole heartedness behind the face of despair….
inquiry for today~ find your simple pleasures and dote on them……
Life is about rhythm. We vibrate, our hearts are pumping blood. We are a rhythm machine; that’s what we are. ~Mickey Hart
