What a blessing to have spacious accommodations after a red-eye flight!

Mom's enthusiam

Mom’s enthusiasm

Why is Mom so excited?  It was May 2012.  We got to board the plane for the second leg of our trip to London after weather caused the first leg to be diverted, unplanned overnight in wrong city and a flight crew that did not all show up.  What’s in store for us?  London gearing up for the Diamond Jubilee and a very special birthday tea at Kensington Palace Orangery.  The first adventure was to see the crown jewels at the Tower of London.

Thank you Mom!…..and Happy Birthday!  Best wishes for many more!

Serving comfort food with pottery

15 Jan

My appreciation for pottery has bloomed since a lovely summer day in Seagrove, NC in 2007 with long time friends.  The methods, colors and specialities of the artists are wonderful.  The uniqueness of the studios was delightful.

Since then, I purchased these pairs of pottery bowls at Talbot Street Art Show (Indianapolis).  I matched them with department store plates in coordinating colors.  When I get my hostess act together, I can serve 12 using six different pairs of bowls/mugs.  Soup, chili and/or stew served in pottery appeals to one’s senses of touch and vision in addition to taste and smell.
