had some excellent meals yesterday…

started with an almond croissant and cheese for breakfast… lunch was a delicious chicken, stuffing and cranberry jelly sandwich on La Belle Baguette sourdough bread… ended the day with ham and scalloped potatoes that a dear friend dropped off…

and I made chicken broth from the chicken carcass…

there is still a great variety of leftovers and ready-to-eat items in the fridge;-)…

very fall-looking day… 

spent it indoors and the morning melted away as I worked on a little project…

wasn’t expecting it to take near as much time but working with a variety of technology is sometimes challenging, lol… although I always enjoy every minute when I am making something…

kept at it until it was done before I would let myself have lunch…

each meal today was a bit unusual… for breakfast I made zucchini pancakes to go with a poached egg… very tasty…

at lunch I had a whole wheat pita with lettuce and pâté and radishes alongside…

finally my dinner consisted of smoked goldeye with a stir fry of cauliflower, onion, eggplant and mushrooms…

although when I look at the pictures, there wasn’t much variety in colour except for the radishes… looking rather bland, lol…

took this picture of the house yesterday… looks pretty good, eh… thinking of the variety of looks it has had since September 1973…

over the last few days we have had a variety of weather… really cold days, with a nasty windchill, and slightly warmer ones… then there was time when the snow was melting… crazy…  

there has been quite a bit of overcast sky… on Sunday I caught this picture of the backyard… the bunny is just under the trees…

 
everything was covered in a dusting of snow and looked so pretty…

later in the day the bird feeders in the front yard took centre stage…

  
Monday, the sun was out and I got a couple of shots of it going down behind the clouds across the creek…

 

last evening as I was waiting for a ride to aquasize I spent a lovely few minutes watching the clouds scoot across the sky as the sun was travelling down…

often when I am waiting for a ride I have my phone in hand and am focussing on two or three things at the same time…

not this time… wonderful… 

mugs…

a couple of weeks ago I picked up a set of four Rob McIntosh mugs…

  
I had bought these same ones about six months ago for my daughter who lives in Ottawa … had to wait quite a while for someone to take them to her… decided I really liked them, but when I went back they didn’t have any…

when I found them the other day I was very happy… I kept one at the office for me…

  
shared one with a colleague…

  
and brought the other two home for my collection…

was very proud of myself when I managed to reduce my collection by two, to make way for the new ones…

  
very happy that both of these were adopted by friends… one sent me a note saying she was enjoying her morning coffee in it and thinking of me:-)…

  

I have a wide variety of mugs and when people are over I have them choose the mug they would like to use for their coffee, tea or hot chocolate… bit of a tradition here…

crazy variety of weather today… 

first thing this morning I looked out the window to see this…

  

could barely see in front of our noses… wet snow falling and strong winds…

around noon the snow stopped but the wind continued…

on our way home the sun was out and the snow was melting…

  

it was beautiful so I decided to walk part way home, although the wind did push me around… was a bit worried about the sidewalks and whether they still had ice on them… mainly dry with just a few wet patches… great walk…

this is what I saw when I got home and looked out that same window…

  

wonder what it is going to look like tomorrow, lol…
