WEEKENDING

Life loves to be taken by
the lapel and told: "I am
with you kid. Let's go."

~Maya Angelou




:: Spending time with my favorite
person before their big move in a
few weeks

:: Great finds while thrifting-
an old bowl and two cast iron
muffin pans. The pans need to
be seasoned and they each
weigh 7.2 pounds so we'll see
just how toned I can get my
arms. ;)

:: Knitting a fun slouchy hat
that all my hair can tuck in to

:: Enjoying the perfect gift
from my daughter

:: Taking back control of my
herb bed from the weeds and
making lots of pesto

:: Napping while a thunderstorm
raged outside for hours

:: Enjoying a late run, a beautiful
sky and wondering about training in
this event...maybe?


Joining with Amanda for Weekending.

    What a sweet weekend...through and through. It's crazy when life gets so busy that you stray away from the things you love. Thank you for bringing me back to center. xoxo

    Oh how bittersweet to see her go. I love Maya Angelou and the quote is just perfect. Yay to you running, I know you enjoy it.

    Sounds like a perfect weekend Tracey. Except the bit about family moving away...it sucks...Maya Angelou is one of my favourite authors so full of wise words.

    Love the sound of Hippie tea...and the hat too...and the thrift finds...I got some vintage kitchen ware yesterday too and can't wait to start baking...

    Have a good day.

    A rainbow! It's been raining a lot all over the place lately. Looking forward to your finished hat. I want to make one for myself.
