lazy days


I've been a little under the weather with a nasty head cold so my days have been lazy to give my body time to heal.  I'm eternally grateful to have my little home to cocoon myself in...so many around the world are suffering and in fear of what may yet to come.  Such beautiful cities, towns, villages across the pacific devastated.  These are places I've visited or lived...it makes my heart break.

welcome


My lovely brother and his gorgeous wife hosted a little party in the park on Sunday to welcome Zoraya.  There were bbq delights, summer salads and sweet treats...and of course pink balloons!  I had fun making some chocolate cupcakes, complete with tiny flags adorned with 'Zoraya' and a sparkly star.  The day was filled with snuggles and giggles and little people running around in the sunshine...bliss.

The end of day came complete with the biggest of rainbows...perfect no?

simple suppers


When life is busy, when thoughts are elsewhere...quick and easy meals are not only deliciously nutritious, they are good for the soul.
