Life is not, for most of us, a pageant of splendor, but is made up of many small things, rather like an old fashioned piecework quilt. No two people have the same, but we all have our own, whether it be listening to Beethoven's fifth with a beloved friend, or seeing a neighbor at the back door with a basket of white dahlias. Or after a long, hard day, having the family say, "That was a good supper."

In no particular order, here are six small things that inspired me this week;
Not sure how I managed to miss this one, it was published in 2021. I discovered this week as I was blog hopping, and immediately checked to see if it was available on Hoopla. Sadly, it isn't, but our library system does have a physical copy, so I placed it on hold. Can't wait to dive in! I love a good memoir, and I love Hayley Mills!
The 'ber months are quickly approaching, and with that changes to my menu. I'm actually working on a seasonal meal rotation plan that I hope to finalize this coming week. I'll be sharing it here, so if you like that sort of thing be sure to watch for it. I thought I had all the soups / stews I want to try, and then this one came across my screen.

I bookmarked Sherry's blog at some point, and came across it again this week as I was filtering through the endless links I have saved! I'm trying to get better at not only bookmarking things, but putting the information to use or organizing it into a more manageable system (whatever that is!). Anyhoo, I definitely got a little side-tracked when I clicked on the link to take me to her blog and spent a good amount of time there. The pictures of her garden are just lovely and are inspiring me to add some new plants to the landscape next Spring!
Just as I love a good memoir, some of my favorite movies are based on true stories. In fact my hands-down, all-time-favorite movie is October Sky, if you've never seen it, you need to!
