You did NOT go and eat a maple bacon donut without me! Well go on ahead and describe it for me. Did you send me one in the mail at least?

What a fab Sunday! I am in love with the cover of your journal & the cool stitching on the spine. But just who is the mysterious Wickie?

I've followed your blog for a few years now but rarely commented, and I just wanted to let you know how much your passion for life inspires me! So thank you! This sounds like a lovely Sunday, and I'm loving the peeks of your latest journal :)

I ate a maple bacon donut from Rocket Donuts once. It turned out not to be to my liking, but it sounded good. I'm loving the peeks at your journals.

Stopping by your blog is like visiting a spa. I always feel so calm and regenerated after looking at all the beauty! Top and bottom of the cover on your top photo--are the magenta labels stamps? Or rub ons? LOVE them!

I love the smell of freesia. And a maple bacon do-nut?? My, my. My husband would do back flips for that I suppose...well, side flips at the very least.

Looooove your Mexican journal, at least the few pages I saw of it already... I want to see MORE... More... and more... I hope you will have the courage to post it all. Thanks to you I took my travel journal with me to the States, and it came back 3 times as fat as when I left with the blank book. It's such a wonderful thing to look at the pages you did while traveling. Now to get my pics sorted and printed, so I can add more to it.
I love your handwriting btw... I am sure your Mexico book will be another jewel on your crown! Can't wait to make another book with your online guidance...

Maple Bacon Donut goodness? Holy Toledo! What next? That sounds sinfully good. Especially now that I'm back to WW after regaining 22 lbs of the 60 I lost...so stupid..
Freesias...a favorite scent, love the way the flower blooms in a row on the stem...filling the area with that delightful, crisp, fruity aroma...delish!!!!
Thanks for posting your colorful world to share with us.

Confess, you just sliced the doughnut in half, spread it with maple syrup and layered on the bacon slices. YUM! Why settle for sweet or salty when you can have both.

This is so very beautiful and I will hold it close to my heart for awhile. I'm grateful for so much but this I forget. "7. decided for the millionth time that the world is pretty and i'm glad i get to live in it. very glad."

" the world is pretty and i'm glad i get to live in it."
Thank you for a lovely start to my day. Too often we overlook this, forgetting to move outside our own self cherishing.
