I finished the textured scarf
for my dear friend
who is modeling it in the picture above.
It is perfect for her as the colour is 'hers'...
I was so pleased to see her wearing it.
*
introduced me too; I got a box for her as well!
I am hoping to keep making teas with various things
and blog about them in the future, God willing.

I've been in Ottawa since Friday;
It was -13 F with 'real feel' being -29 F here!
I layered up well and has been gifted
a 100% cashmere sweater that helped keep me warm!
*
I fly back today and hope for a on time flight...
The forecast shows it being windy but clear.
Please if you would in your charity,
pray that I get home today and in peace!

I am re-reading the book that was so integral to my
journey in life.
*
I was talking to another dear friend last week
and told her that I am rereading this book;
it seems to be a book of beginnings and transitions for me.
I read it through a few times in my earliest years
in my discovery of the Orthodox faith
and find myself being so encouraged by it again now
as I continue to build my new life with my
beloved Mr. Husband.
I have so many wonderful moments from my days here in Ottawa!
I am excited to return to my life with my husband
and hope to work on many things,
including reading books with him slowly,
learning to knit socks to give him
and start a new knitted blanket.
