savouring the slow pace
listening to the sounds of the clocks chiming in the bungalow
as life ticks along...
Breakfast usually turns into brunch
with a light snack to follow later in the afternoon
before a hearty dinner of roast chicken or roast beef.
One skillet
brunch for two.
I had a play day and went thrift shopping with my daughter and BFF.
I found a butter dish in our everyday Maxwell Williams pattern
a large vintage English Johnson ironstone bowl
which will be fabulous for pasta, salad or fruit.
I picked up my new glasses
"Geek Chic goggles"
(can you say investment glasses?)
I don't know if they are chic
they definitely are GEEK!
I love them especially with my bright red Chanel lipgloss.
At my age I feel that I have earned the right to push the envelope...
I can see so much better now...
gosh
it's been 3 years since my last prescription
words were getting blurry, very distorted and wobbly.
If things get much worse I might need to get a seeing eye dog...
a Golden of course!
A Canadian band
who played at my high school...
there's a bit of a story...
I played the flute
and backstage my BFF and I met the band
we got autographs
the flute of Burton Cummings jumped into my hand
and he indulged me
and listened
a very nervous girl
who was somewhat awestruck
played a few notes
before their concert
my BFF and I were in the front row!
I have been cruising the internet for their songs...
check this out...
Bruce Springsteen
He's going to be touring soon
I hope I can be there!
Have a fabulous weekend
