A Few of My Favorite Things

Sundays are good days to enjoy favorite activities and other things that make us smile and allow us to relax after a long week. Before sitting down to put the finishing touch on my newest crochet pattern design, I spent some time enjoying a few of my favorite things.

A long bike ride along the Rhine River

The first sighting of one of my favorite flowers in bloomm -- wisteria

A cup of peach-mango tea

An episode or two of one of my favorite British Shows -- Call the Midwife

And a lap full of crochet

  1. Mary I also love the TV show 'Call the Midwife', it is just so wholesome and perfect Sunday viewing.
    I got up early today and tried a new recipe in my slow cooker, balsamic vinegar and pork, the smell just wafted through the house and was heavenly. I also roasted some veggies with lots of black pepper and a bit of garlic and oil (butternut squash; sweet potatoes and regular potatoes) and we had some steamed veggies too. The juices in the slow cooker made a very tasty gravy.
    I also ripped back some knitting, I wasn't happy with it and I am my own worst critic. I am now crocheting with the same yarn. I am making some summer clothes for baby Archie, my grandson.
    My other half is upstairs watching the football on his laptop, I know when his team has scored because he get's very loud and excited with a big "C'mon, have it" that resounds through the whole house.
    I love the colours in your lapful of crochet, they're simply scrumptious together.
    Have a good Sunday my dear friend
