4 August Vlog

Join me as we weather tropical storm Isaias, do some cleaning, tidy up the parking lot, and weed. Plus, we get a parcel from House of Brinson!

Sunday Night's Sunset

A Few Hours at the Beach

Someone got buried in sand up to his neck on this excessively hot day.

Beauty at the Hospital

My husband had to visit a sweet baby boy at the hospital today to bring him Holy Communion. Please pray for him and his family as he was born with only half a heart. 

The property of the hospital has several beautiful buildings. I loved seeing this tower. I could almost envision Rapunzel letting down her long hair from the turret. Can you see the swan on the weathervane? It is so charming! 

We just finished painting the trim on the house and church building and really need to choose a color for the shutters. I loved the color scheme of this house at the hospital and it would look perfect for our stucco and red tile roof. I have to see if we can get some paint samples to test the sage color!

A New Yarn Project

It's time to start another knitting project. This yarn caked up beautifully.  It's Cascade Ultra Pima color no. 3768. It looks just like cocoa powder in real life.

Cupcakes

My friend, Mirona, made these wonderful plum and apricot cupcakes with cream cheese frosting. They are based on the New York Times Plum Torte recipe that we all know and love. They are lovely treats at any time of day. Thank you, dear Mirona!

My Favorite Summer Fruit

There's nothing like a fragrant white peach on a hot summer day.

Great and Holy Week at Home
