Everyday Things.....


Do you see those lovely purple blossoms?! My wisteria is blooming for the first time ever and I couldn't be happier! Pretty much every day I have to walk out to the arbor and gawk at it for a few minutes. (Never mind that those are the only blossoms on the whole vine!) Simple pleasures......


I was able to harvest a nice bit of rhubarb this month. It really went crazy this year, and is dominating  one end of my little herb garden.


Mim just loves being outside. She is unstoppable, and wears us all out just trying to keep up with her!
Not to mention her own little self.


After a morning out, it's hard to stay awake through lunch! :)



I happened upon Boots, very focused on his piano practice, while these two sat on each side of him.
So I had to run for the camera.


Mim, of course, couldn't keep her little fingers off the keys,
but he didn't even seem to notice.


He is such a good big brother.


Ah, and one last little thing!

After almost twelve years of marriage, I am now the proud owner of a bona fide sifter!


It's one of my latest Goodwill finds!  I had always made due with the metal strainer down there on the left, because I wanted to find myself a nice old fashioned vintage one, like I grew up using.



I think it cost me a dollar.
And I couldn't be more excited to use it.

Simple pleasures.......:)
