A Whole Lot of Eggs

Thrift Store Treasures

was so happy to find this book on Andrew Wyeth's Helga pictures because it reminds me of an exhibit of his work that @willfulmina and I got to see in Cooperstown many moons ago.

The Duralex Picardi glasses are the start of a new collection. As charming as the Bonne Maman jam jar drinking glasses have been, I'm ready for a change.

 

Afternoon Walk

French Onion Soup

 
I cannot express to you enough how much the recipe for Best French Onion Soup from Cook's Illustrated is worth. It takes several hours, but most of that is hands-off. I like it best with swiss cheese toasts resting happily in the bowl.

A Pizza Date

 

Pizza after our walk! I chose two really delicious slices: buffalo chicken and meatball parmesean.

 

Sunset at the Inlet

 

My husband and I took a walk on the boardwalk yesterday evening and enjoyed a beautiful sunset.

Be Our Guest

Metropolitan Tikhon is here this weekend! We had a dinner party after church tonight for him and our parish's clergy and their wives. I set the table ahead of time so that I could enjoy it longer.

Washington D.C. from a Hotel


We got a great deal on a hotel room near the Pentagon and Arlington Cemetery. I asked the clerk at the lobby desk if she would give us the highest room possible because I love looking out at the city lights. She went above and beyond with a room on the eleventh floor overlooking all of the beautiful monuments in Washington D.C. What a treat!

Saint Nicholas Cathedral

Potting Bench


Our daughter is using the coffee table as a potting bench to trim her plants and root the cuttings for friends. 🌱🌿🪴
