Inside and outside it is feeling very wintery and festive around here. We have been enjoying visiting with friends, crafting and making and whispering ideas about solstice gifts to each other, reading endless piles of books, playing and skiing and drinking eggnog together by the fire with a good book.
I hope you are all cozy and warm where you are, friends.
Love those snowy in-the-trees shots! Looks like you're all having such a cozy time. Do you have a good eggnog recipe? I think this may be the second time you've mentioned it - and its got my mouth watering...
ReplyDeleteThis is wonderful, Taisa- such warm photos, even with the snow!
ReplyDeleteWe read a library book recently about a little boy who says winter is the warmest time of year- and he talks of bundling up in wool, sitting by the fire, drinking cocoa- and really it is true. We create such warmth this time of year- and it reflects in your photos!
Much love to you,
Mel
I love the snowy tree photos too - makes me want to get out there and just be in the woods. We live very inner-city but thankfully have a large green space nearby that my oldest daughter has dubbed "the hundred acre woods". Not quite a hundred acres but when you are 3 it must seem very vast.
ReplyDeletehi Danielle! Yes, I probably have mentioned eggnog a few times, we are hooked! It is one holiday treat that we can make that tastes pretty close to our pre-GAPS food, and so we are all really loving it. We have been using this recipe, http://grainfreefoodie.blogspot.com/2010/01/raw-egg-nog.html
ReplyDelete(but I don't bother whipping the eggwhites, I just chuck it all in the blender!) I hope you guys are cozy and warm there!
Melanie- that sounds like a lovely book. hugs to you and your cozy crew.
Mel- That is lovely- I bet it does seem huge to her!
Love that last photo the most! You guys live in such a beautiful place!

Taisa...Your photos are so beautiful! I love the warmth that is nearly tangible, beckoning from your photos. That baby sling is very familiar ~ love the silks. And I must admire your toboggan (I'm hoping for just such a one for the holidays) and silly me, your coat is lovely, too. I suppose I'm in a real admiring mood, because I'm liking so much here (as usual). Many hugs to you, Taisa, I hope your week is a beautiful one.

So much warmth and coziness, Taisa! I love your photos, they are so alive! How are things going with your GAPS diet? Are you seeing improvement? I would love to read a post about that if you feel enclined to share...

ReplyDeleteJules- thanks so much! But I must tell you, that is a picture of a friend, though I agree, the sled and coat are both ever so lovely!
ReplyDeleteCatherine- It is going very well. Yes, I should do a post on GAPS soon, maybe in the new year I'll get one together. Thanks for the suggestion!
