Hi!

Here I am reading Anne of Avonlea on my porch. The hot cocoa didn't last very long, but it sure was delicious! Thanks Sweetheart for taking the picture and teaching me how to download them (again).

Anonymous said...: I love the Anne of Green Gables stories! Loved watching the movies as well, the ones that had Megan Fellows as Anne. Some days I wish life was like how it was in the stories. And the style of clothing back then that everyone wore. Sorry, I'm just rambling, but I do enjoy the Anne stories. How old are your books that are shown in the photos?; 9:48 PM
Kimberly said...: The editions I have are from 1928. The original printing of Anne of Green Gables was in 1908.
I, too, would love to dress as a Gibson Girl everyday! The Edwardian Era is one of my favorite periods of clothing. Thanks for stopping by!; 10:15 PM

Have you ever been to Prince Edward Island? It is so beautiful - I went to the "Green Gables" they have there - oh, so amazing!

Many blessings,

I had to smile, I'd just checked one of the Anne of Green Gables DVDs out from the library this afternoon, to enjoy later this week!

Then as I read, you mention Earl Grey...

I love meeting likeminded ladies on these blogs.; 4:41 PM

Welcome!

I'm so glad you're here.

This blog began a long time ago. I started writing when I was home with just my first child. I wrote a lot back then about tea and books.
After my second child was born, I wrote less (of course), and began to chronicle the changes we started toward a simpler and slower paced life. I began to share a lot about all the cool stuff I was learning to make from scratch.
Those changes led to us choosing to leave our life in the city of Denver for life in rural Idaho. We moved just after our last child was born. We worked in earnest on our little farm with chickens, goats and even a milk cow for awhile. We learned a lot.
Recently, we moved back to Colorado to be closer to family and not live quite so isolated a life. We're now in a relatively small town, though to us it feels big, and beginning our lives over yet again.
I still love to read with my cup of tea. Most days find me busy at home teaching our dear kiddos. I'm still making nearly everything from scratch, but I also enjoy getting to see the people I love and shop in a decent store without having to drive an hour or more. It's the best of both worlds to me.
Thanks for stopping by!
