I wish you, your family, and these blog friends a much better New Year, full of hope, good health, and an opportunity to start making plans we can keep to travel. . . . .whether to the grocery store or another continent!

I still read it once a year. My current edition seems to be from the USA and the blurb is all bonkers. It talks of West Country accents, and other nonsense.

Then we went to Mass and had a simple supper of a filled home cooked soup as a meal.<br />Hugs,<br />MarietteMariette VandenMunckhof-Vedderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16877699174880945452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-34514402269319566302022-01-01T16:20:19.413-08:002022-01-01T16:20:19.413-08:00Seeing various plantings emerge from their Winter ...Seeing various plantings emerge from their Winter sleep is fantastic.

For now, I entertain myself by watching birds at my bird feeders. My husband got me a new birdfeeder for my birthday today which is designed to look like a Mexican cantina. I've managed to hang it right outside my living room window. Hopefully its bright, cheery colours will brighten up the grey days ahead.

I believe it will be colder next week.<br />How I love hellebores. I can't decide if I like the white ones or those dusky pink freckled ones better. The very dark ones are rather lovely too and as they are all promiscuous, plenty of variations occur.<br />Hope you get out for a walk soon.
