Flowers… are a proud assertion that a ray of beauty outvalues
all the utilities of the world.
Ralph Waldo Emerson, 1844
The forgotten sound of rain drops against my bedroom window
The need to wear a cozy sweater instead of a fancy shirt
The music of the wind playing in my head
This is my Saturday…
How is yours?
I sat inside by the fire place at the cottage. Then we went for an afternoon walk in the forest to pick some chantrelle mushrooms.

Lovely. Oh it's cooled down here too. Avoiding the rain, though.

I wish I could say relaxing, but three hours of hair coloring, cutting and pedicure which is why no Saturday day trip. But then it is cold, rainy and overcast which would make for lousy snapshots even if we did go.

Sounds like you are having a relaxing time. Wish I could say the same thing. Busy cleaning and running errands.

Your Saturday sounds like a dreamy place to be Anyes. Mine is dull and cloudy with trips to get groceries and visit my aging MIL in hospital. BUT…I have my youngest home from college for the weekend and although we aren't "doing" anything, it is just lovely to have him under the same roof. And if it rains later in the day — I have books and a delightful bottle of wine and a cozy afghan just waiting for me! Enjoy! xo
