Getting there

Our tulips perked up!

Today I cleaned and cleaned...
and made a nice meal
with candles lit!


We're getting better
day by day.
Mr. Husband is still coughing too much...

 

I talked to a good friend on the phone

today and wished she could of come over for tea!

She told me of a cookbook author

I had not heard of yet...

Nigella Lawson.

Have any of you heard of her?

Now that the house is in better order

I hope to get back to reading, baking and

building my life here.

*

But first, I hope tomorrow to go into NYC

to go shopping.

Husband's Christmas office party is

in 14 days...

and later this year we have a wedding to attend

so I am hoping to find something nice

to wear...

*

To all those on the new calendar,

happy St. Nicholas Day

tomorrow!!

I read a longer story of St. Ioannicius today

and learned that he was the first to pray

My hope is the Father,

my refuge is the Son,

my protection is the Holy Spirit,

O Holy Trinity, Glory to You.

*

I read this post on St. Barbara and Elder Paisios

the other day and

highly recommend it!

*

I am hoping to make cookies for St. Nicholas Day

and need to get going on that...

it is in 14 days for me!

Any and all baking suggestions,

do send my way! :)

Thanks for all the prayers for Mr. Husband and I's

recovery; we are making ground and

I pray that this continues.
