Rose-Colored Glasses (28)

March 22, 2016 By Susan Nuyt Leave a Comment

Come take a walk with me through rose-colored glasses.  Put on a pink lens, let's walk into Spring.  Open the door. We'll go up a long road and walk the afternoon away, no particular place to be but here--with you. See purple blooms and clover, green grass and crop rows ... white gravel under our feet. We can make it a rose-colored world. Let's run … [Read more...]

Rose-Colored Glasses, exclusively by Skirt in the Kitchen "Sing a song of sixpence, a pocket full of rye, four and twenty blackbirds baked in a pie...  "  This comes to mind, this old nursery rhyme that my parents used to read and say to my little sister and me when we were small sprouts. … [Read more...]

It's been some time since I've written on Rose-Colored Glasses.  It's where I stop to smell the roses.  It's the time that it takes to drop everything to really look and live through visible eyes, not solely through a lens... in a walk... or just listening to the sounds of the birds in the trees with eyes closed for a bit.   I admire nature.  I love it's details, its splendor, … [Read more...]

You know by now how much I like coffee and espresso, don't you?  Have a cup with me.  Come sit down and be in my kitchen, be with me here.   Here's you a cup, I hope you like it.     Have you had breakfast?  I've got eggs and grits on the stove.  You're welcome to join me.   I baked a chocolate cake for Valentine's Day.  I carved out a heart and filled it with … [Read more...]

It's a girl's dress calendar.  This picture on the cover happens to be the painted art print for the month of May.  The dresses are vintage-inspired with the floral of spring. January's look... fabulous February... March-- umbrella for rain showers... April (my favorite print), a party month for birthdays and the change of weather... Here's … [Read more...]

It's a "whiskers" kind of day.  Rosella is being a rascally kitty-kat.  Her "twin" brother, Roman, has seemingly decided to take a long winter's nap.  I suppose she's got to do double-time leaping and darting 'cross floors, pouncing and tackling objects.  She's got mischief written all over her face.     She prefers jumping up, balancing perfectly, resting and looking out … [Read more...]

Roman's whiskers, his spots, the very mischief of his actions...   See what I mean?  He's got vigor in his next step.  He will chase a pulled string across a slick floor, slam into a wall, meow, then wonder why it happened.       The kittens like watching TV, especially Thomas and Friends, lol...  They keep themselves busy and entertained when not getting into stuff, … [Read more...]

Flashback to babyhood; my daughter was little, now she's almost half-grown...  a magical time, a marvelous year-- She turned one when this picture was taken.  My mother and sister flew up to see us to spend a few days just to hold her.  Where does time fly, exactly?   Since then, from toddler years to girlhood, she's helped me bake cookies.   She loves everything … [Read more...]
