// Have a Cozy Weekend.

Fast forward two weeks, and this is last weekend's arrival in a photo. Our first snowfall of the season— freezing rain included, and we're enjoying the view. We love our changing seasons. Hello Friday!, and here's to a warm and all-snuggles weekend. 'Looking forward to making these potatoes with my easy-skillet chicken. Have a restful one. More happenings of the month that was after the jump... ~xx

// Where November Finds Us...

Hello November! What are you up to as we begin a new month (and the second to last one too for 2020)? The year has certainly flown by with all its unexpected and continuing unknowns... In a nutshell— we're trying to keep up with the busies of October, which is a good thing. All the little overlaps, lovely surprize gifts and more that elevate these our chilly days. When Natalie sent me an unexpected email asking what colour I'd prefer: matte black or blue, I immediately said blue with sporting my complimentary work-from-home beauty lift that day, not realizing what she was actually up to. A few days later, the very enchanting Blue Spruce arrived and it was so so hard not to light this refreshing and relaxing forest escape right away. I hung in there (taking a whiff ever so often), and excitedly struck that match yesterday! 'Tis the season for stepping into our warmer wood and spicy botanical blends. More after the jump...

// Coming Up Roses {in Sweet Little Moments}

{my welcome to fall after 7 "ahhh" moment, (daytime too! from the inner-lid :)) with working behind the scenes: Humble Bee's Rose and Sandalwood wood planter candle; pure exotic oils, and hand poured with love right here in Toronto; #bliss; thanks Natalie!}

 

We treasure our coming-up-roses days, hours, and even minutes these days. They have a much deeper meaning and special-ness to them and we are grateful for all the love that surrounds us each and every day in so many varied ways. More relaxing moments that elevated our days and evenings this month after the jump. Have a smooth and peaceful week. ~x

// Where All Our Days Merge Together...

{as heavy-duty as our frozen flavours got this month; no kidding here; my gram's after school friday treat with dinner - the fizzy mixed drink!; our three ingredient 'peach kola slushy'}

 

... and we can never get to bed early enough during the week. Can you relate? August has been super-busy for most getting all the necessaries in place for a smooth(er) year ahead. In some ways, it feels like getting ready for a new year (as in January), throwing out this and restocking that, wishing there was a safe bonfire happily waiting over the railings instead of having to relate to one item at a time, and becoming perplexed as to why it's taking an hour longer to slip into bed. We're blaming it on our crave for some light nighttime entertainment. It's an anxious and maddening world out there, understandably, and I've had many unraveling moments too. We need our calm, refueling things! These too have been the days of August. More of the month that was after the jump. Have a relaxing weekend everybody. ~xx

// Have a Safe Long Weekend.~

{good morning to you too!; they always find a way to get my attention and make me smile}

 

Happy Friday! This month, our official outdoorsy-adventure summer month found us, more in, than out (what else is new). But today, we enter Stage 3!, and hopefully we all will continue to do our part with being responsible and respectful, wearing our masks and social distancing as mandated within our beautiful province, for a successful transition. It's the only way to safely see ourselves through these times, and being able to step outside a bit more. My legs love and need that outdoor stretch. Can you relate? Little moments from our month, all on different days of the week, that gave a soft mental lift. Have a lovely weekend, and please do wear your mask when out and about. ~xx
