Happy New Year!

Hello sweet friends.  Just wanted to tell you that I'll be taking a blog break for awhile.  Why?  Well, because this is the first one I've had in the seven years since we started.  I think it's time, don't you?  I am only an e-mail away, and I do hope you write me an occasional note to keep in touch.  Jess and Nel will be filling in for me and still post as often as they can with their busy schedules.  I will leave you with some pictures of nature, as you all know how much I love spending time there.  It cleanses my mind, and it is there where I dwell in peace~

























Happy New Year!
Joy to you!



And know I love you.

Thank you for your comments. The white dessert is (Northern) Italian torrone. (The flavour of the bar is "Exotic Fruit".) I prefer the soft one... It's even better than chocolate. :)
Have a beautiful Sunday! xx

Hello Sheri and a happy and healthy New Year to you!
Enjoy your blog break!

Dewena said...

Dear Sheri, I dearly hope that your time away from blogging has refreshed you. We all need that and I find that I need it more frequently than I used to. Time to fill the well, time to tend to ourselves as well as our loved ones. And time to enjoy the beauty of nature as you have always loved.

Your daughters are doing a beautiful job here and I understand that so well because they've had a fabulous teacher!

Be well and happy,
Dewena
