Four Great Things...

...on this cool(ish) Tuesday morning.

1. Beautiful new yarn from Germany and Italy! And look! One of them is called Georgia - how appropriate.
 2. Open windows!! Finally - it's cooling down and all of us are happy, especially Ramses and Winslow! This morning it actually was cooler outside than in the house!
 3. Two delicious, crunchy, chewy and oh, so good for you loaves of bread hot out of the oven! You can find the recipe in this post.
 4. My soft and fluffy purple scarf in a beautiful purple treasury. Ok, so this happened a while ago, but I just remembered it today. Go visit by clicking here and leave a comment if you feel inspired.
I was going to take pictures of some new scarves this morning, but the rain soaked everything outside so nicely yesterday that I have to wait until later this afternoon when the sun has dried things out a little. Pictures taken outside are always so much nicer.

Yesterday, I started painting again and maybe I'll have something to show you soon. We'll see how it goes. It feels strange after all these weeks. I was a little afraid that I might have forgotten how...

In the meantime, my lovely friends, I hope your Tuesday is off to a most auspicious start!!

    The yarn is so lovely! And the bread looks yummy!

    You are so right about the photos....better to wait for the sunlight!

    And I had to chuckle at your comment about being afraid you have forgotten how to paint! I feel like that all that time....even if I miss a few days!

    :)

    You forgot one. FIVE great things, you included. :)

    Oh wow, that yarn looks so soft to the touch. And adorable shot of Ramses and Winslow! Kind of reminds me of the Cat in the Hat, no?

    Hope you're having a glorious Tuesday!

    I know, Silke! Hasn't the weather been nice the last few days? I've had my A/C off and house open night and day for the past two days!

    Congratulations of being in the purple Treasury. I love purple...and so does my mother!

    Don't get me started on the bread ... I love freshly baked bread and the house smells heavenly when one bakes! I'll be getting a new oven, so I hope it's here in time for my German Weihnachtsplaetzle backen ;-)
