Does it get any cozier than spending a windy and rainy #Caturday afternoon indoors making Christmas cards while the kitties nap and one's husband sings and makes tea in the kitchen? I think not.

I was amazed when Mr. C and I went grocery shopping today to see daisies blooming by the side of the road. Daisies! In mid-November!

As darkness fell Fair Damsel took the opportunity to capture the beautiful snowflakes made especially for me.

An added bonus was capturing the beauty of herself.♥️

Sarah drove me to a nearby town to sort out paperwork with the tax office. It took complicated explanations and prolific form filling before all was in order.

Three hours later I arrived home to see Fair Damsel's special display just for me.❄️♥️😊💫🌻🌞

Bonjour, Rayons de Soleil!

Good morning, Sunbeams!

Blocking my latest snowflake.

#crochet #snowflake

I've just realised why I've gotten so into crocheting different snowflake patterns. It's because Mr. C loves snow and we don't get much here. I'm going to make a whole bunch and put them on the glass doors so it looks like it's snowing.

This photo of a field of giant reed aka elephant grass (Arundo donax) doesn't do the amazing colour justice!

Watson was asleep at my feet when I started belting out 🎵 "Memories." 🎶 She walked over and gave me such a look! 😾😂

Then she went right back to her nap! 😹

I was about to get up and make breakfast for Mr. C. Really I was!

Mr. C says:

Fair Damsel pulled out all the stops to brighten a very grey and blustery day: chicken, stuffing, Yorkshire pudding and gravy accompanied by roast potatoes, cauliflower, broccoli and brussels by me.

Absolutely Sunbeamadelicious.😋

I spent the afternoon knitting hats while Mr. C and the kitties napped. Mr. C did a lot of cleaning and fed Limonaid and Little Goat after making our breakfast.

All is well in our world.

A cold wet day spent mostly indoors apart from feeding the chickens.

What better time to enjoy Fair Damsel's homemade stew consisting of: beef, carrots, mushrooms, onions & gravy with added boiled potatoes by me.

Absolutely Sunbeamadelicious.😋

Out and about with Mr. 'n' Mrs. C 🌞❤️🌻...

On our way home from Intermarche we were delighted to see a wild boar running across the fields followed by a singular (Yes, that's the collective noun for boar.) of young'uns. We couldn't get too close or she would have attacked the camper! This is only the second time I've seen wild boar since coming to France and my first time seeing babies. I've seen their tracks and the evidence of them rubbing against trees several times.

Good morning, Sunbeams!

Winter hats ready to go out and be found by whomever needs them. I also included a little crocheted heart so the finder knows that they are loved. The tags are in French and English as Mr. C, from Derby, England, and I, from Pittsburgh, PA, USA, now live in France.

Watching 'Batman Begins'

Mr. C: Christian Bale looks nothing like he did in Robin Hood.

Me: which version was he in?

Mr. C: 'Prince of Thieves' he was Robin Hood's brother.

Me: Sweetheart, that was Christian Slater.

Mr. C: No wonder he didn't look anything like him.
