thinking of my beloved a lot recently… for the past few days I’ve been thinking of his fried egg sandwiches…

this morning I made an open-faced version using some of the French bread from La Belle Baguette that I picked up yesterday…

I can’t replicate what he did… they were always especially yummy… although that might have to do with how much butter he would add to the bread, lol… and the eggs were always perfectly cooked with soft yolks…

I picked up a few hyacinths the other day… left one at work and brought one home for the bedroom… just love the scent as they open… as it bloomed, discovered that it was pink… I usually get the purple ones…

made me realize how much pink there is currently in the bedroom… I held the hyacinth up to the new curtains which have purples and pinks in them… then realized that my afghan has pink in it as well… and when I put away some laundry in the closet – which I recently hung by colour – I spotted some pink as well…

very interesting as pink has never really been one of my colours…

the day was filled with purple treats…

early this morning as I was walking to the clinic for some bloodwork I came across numerous lilacs in various stages of opening…

these ones were on the way there…

and these ones were on the way back… so pretty and the scent was divine…

was wonderful to be walking outside in the sunshine and warm weather…

at noon did yoga, in my purple outfit, on my purple mat, lol…

at the end of the day when I arrived home I took this picture of the purple flowering chives that are lining the driveway…

for supper I ordered beef bones through SkipTheDishes… lovely end to the week… Tony Roma’s is the only restaurant that calls after you’ve ordered to see if your meal was satisfactory… a great touch…

my daughter FaceTimed me to show me the parcel that arrived… inside was my newest Fitbit Charge 2 metal band… a purple one…

the final treat of my day was some of my loose teamate tea and a little bit of chocolate… love the purple Bino bottle with the extra hot water in it…

and it looks nice on my Mexican blanket/ tablecloth…

good day filled with purple moments…

hot…

big girl pants, blooms, hot, Millennium Library, pond, scent, widow

just spent half an hour sitting on the deck reading… while I was there the delicious scent of the the apricot tree down the lane kept wafting over me… some years it has barely any, but this year it is filled with blooms…

  
the temperature at 8 pm was 30 Celsius…

  
crazy hot day… 

went for a walk around 2 and took this shot of one section of the pond by the Millennium Library …

  
was hoping there might be some ducks, but not so far…

happily my knee is feeling a bit better…

going to be hot for sleeping…
