Delights

This White Rose Tea is so good. The rose notes are definitely there but not overpowering, very soothing. 

It is always good to find delight in every day little things, but also in larger life experiences. I'm keeping busy with volunteer work this November. Will be back to stitching once I reach my volunteer work goal for the month. Although needlework is satisfying, relaxing, and wholesome,... nothing compares to the joy that comes from giving of yourself for a greater purpose.

M U G Shots ;-)

Although I will drink tea in any nice clean mug, drinking it in a cute mug makes me feel a bit more special ;-).  For tea my preference is for more delicate mugs compared to the ones I'll use  for coffee. So here are a few oldie (but goodie) previously posted pictures... we are going down mug memory lane.

How do you prefer your drinking vessel to be?  

Homey Stitchy Day and Freebie

So guess what?! Did get out the EPP and Daisychain projects, and today I plan to work a bit on them (inserting a happy dance here). 
The picture above it is not directly related to my projects, however it does portray cottages and needlework (homey and stitchy). 
It'll be an outcast/rainy kind of day, kids will be busy with their online school work, older kid will be making a family size salad for lunch. No major chores today... just a small laundry load of my husband's formal dress shirts to throw in the washer, and we have yesterday's leftovers for today's dinner. All is set. While stitching will most likely listen to spiritually enriching mp3s. 

Might even stay in my pj's,... love being home! Before leaving, here is a vintage embroidery pattern I've previously shared. 

Hoping you are all able to enjoy your day! Until next time!
