The orchid bloomed again.
It's one some dear friends of us gave us when they first had dinner
with us a few years back...
I feel like it is always a special blessing when it blooms,
an encouragement, esp. in the deep of winter....
I wish I lit my lampadas everyday;
but I don't. I always have a candle or two burning
but would love if my life could fit in daily lampada lighting;
it is such a lifting up of one's self when they are lit....
We had fish fillets and some of my homemade bread for dinner
the other night...
Sometimes the simplest meals are the best.

we had a fish fillet meal early in the week and it was simple, but perfect for the moment. I had lit my St. Blaize candles and made pizzelles (italian cookie) for dessert, but both those things added so much to a basically simple meal.
Love the orchids. I used to have a Christmas cactus and it was so lovely to have flowers blooming while it's snowing outside. Our new windows made the sills too narrow for plants so I can't grow them any more.
That orchid looks marvelous! I feel the need to be surrounded by flowers this time of year. They are definitely a blessing :)
I love your tea cozies!!! I wish I was patient to have an orchid bloom again. I have tried several times but eventually (even after 12-18 months) I give up. :(
beautiful orchid, I received one over the summer and I helped it not live, I have no idea what I did or didn't do!
