Grey cloaks the world...
After the Autumn brilliance, grey cloaks the world,
a sleepiness that seems as though it will last an eternity...

What:nots...
Here's to a super sunny Monday morning. I hope all is ticking along nicely in your neck of the woods. Below is a cobbled together collection of things that have caught my attention
...an interview with Joan Dye Gussow which lead me to her book Growing, Older
...this nifty Evian commercial
...this worthy crowd-funded non-profit, and...
Mary Oliver's A Thousand Mornings - utterly wonderful!

What:nots...
My it's been a funny few weeks, but here we are in February already. I hope January treated you well, I seem to be achieving my goal of reading more this year which is so very satisfying. Have you read anything good lately? I'd love to hear any recommendations. And in my next leap of faith, I'm considering a small course of study - quite the leap of faith as it has been many years since I went near a University! So we shall see. With my dwindling spare time (thanks to my dear horse, children, and now studying) I will be taking a break from what:nots. Although let's be honest my posts have been few and far between of late, and there's a part of me that feels it's run its course. I hope to still pop in and post the odd thing now and then, and of course will still be on Pinterest and Tumblr. Have a wonderful week.

Lovely dappled light found here.

A fetching cashmere beanie from Bonnet.
This has been added to my reading list (found via by Heidi's favourites list).

And this looks like a particularly wonderful way to tour the English countryside.

What:nots...
Here we are on a soggy Sunday, mid November. It was practically dark at half past four today. The past week has been mixed. On the good (well, to be honest, great) news front I am the proud owner of a horse!! His name is Irish, and he is a very handsome chestnut thoroughbred. On the not so good news front I'm laid up in bed with a severely pulled back muscle. Ouch. Annoying, and somewhat ironic as I won't be riding for a wee while. Hopefully things are well in your neck of the woods. I'm looking forward to a quiet evening in with R's chicken and mushroom pie, followed by rhubarb and apple crumble with lots of whipped cream. Yum.


I too, wonder Mr Carroll.

One of my all time favourite images.

An extraordinarily lovely peony.

Gosh has it really been two weeks? Time just seems to be flying. We appear to arrived in November complete with shorter days, crisp temperatures, and leaves left, right and centre. On the exciting news front, we are now staying in Portland for another year...whoop whoop! And this morning I competed in my first horse show. Horrifically nerve wracking, but lots of fun. I even managed a second place in one class...whoop whoop! Here's a long overdue what:nots. Happy Sunday eve...
The lovely Miss Moss.
Falconwright's light brown clutch.
Scrumptious chocolate from Tcho.
Sheer loveliness from Pinterest.
It's Complicated by Anthony Zinonos.

And a sweet tune for a dark, rainy Sunday afternoon.

Hello Sunday afternoon. How was the past week for you? Mine drifted by slowly while I did battle with a nasty cold. Slowness and colds aside a flattering highlight was having my Pinterest account included here. It totally made my day! I hope the week ahead is a good one. With R in China the boys and I have a few plans up our sleeves, starting with a trip to Salt & Straw to try out their new apple season inspired flavours.

Hello there. I hope your weekend is pottering along nicely. After a whirlwind start to the school year, we seem to have settled into a nice, steady rhythm. Here's to a settled and (hopefully) sunny week ahead!
