This candle is not what I expected...
it is melting in a rather unusual fashion.
The shopkeeper where I purchased this candle
assured me that they were quality imports from Europe.
I think I will go back to buying beeswax candles.
They burn cleanly and look lovely and are fragrant while they burn.
Reading Mick Herron's book Slow Horses the first in the series.
Mr. HB is on book 5 London Rules...
he has the next one and will purchase the new one when it is published this April.
We do not usually read the same books but this series is an exception.
My reading corner at the cottage.
The weather is freezing cold and we had some snow overnight.
Just a dusting.
It is a beautiful sunny Sunday here at the cottage!
Another vintage sealer jar...almost full.
We managed to get out for two beach walks and gather sea glass.
Fashionable OOTD at the cottage are rather non existent!
I pack a Lands' End tote with cozy casual sportswear during the fall and winter.
What I pack for the week:
Nightgown and Ralph Lauren terry robe
thick alpaca socks (instead of slippers)
Lingerie:
bras, panties, camisoles
Two long sleeved Lands" End cotton tops
Yoga pants and a pair of black lined leggings
32 Below black velour zip jacket
Black quilted Eileen Fisher vest
distressed and much worn Gap denim shirt
Jeans
Long sleeve Eileen Fisher boiled wool sweater
Boots:
Warm lined Reiker boots in a tobacco shade
Black waterproof Josef Seibel Chelsea Boots
Columbia blue puffer coat
Burberry plaid scarf
You might be curious, I do wear my Akoya pearls...
my vintage burgundy leather Due Fratelli bag
I also bring a small black leather Roots bag for hikes and walks.
Our cottage time is laid back and casual.
Hope that you are keeping warm and cozy if it is snowing where you live.
We'll be spending most of the week with our noses in our books and going for walks.
Meals will be simple and the weather sounds like it will warm up.
