five little things that made my week.
1. this turmeric and milk.
{my friend janet reminded me of turmeric’s healing properties this week and i made a delicious combination of warm milk, turmeric, and honey. move over hot chocolate (okay, not too far over)}.
2. this quince blossom.
{because i used these branches for an upcoming valentine post and the leftovers lasted all week}.
3. this nearly used up candle.
{because i’ve been sticking it on the radiator instead of lighting it, and it still smells so. good}.
4. this sleepy finch.
{for snoozing on the feeder all morning long}.
5. this chocolate pizzelle. 
{for all these reasons}.
other things:
we just made this again. best blizzard meal.
ground hogs!
old folks + old footage = heart swells.
this is life affirming.
i’d love pore over these.
thought-provoking.

you kill me with your suggestions!!!love them all!…happy weekend!
That sweet napping bird: be still my heart.
Also, I've been meaning to pop in here to tell you that 1. I made your Brussels sprouts pasta – delicious. I still had more sprouts, so I roasted them and (thanks to your mention of the restaurant pizza) put them on a homemade pizza. It's our current family favorite . . . and I think I'm addicted to roasted Brussels sprouts. Thanks for the idea!
ha! they are definitely addictive. so happy to hear that you tried your hand at the pasta…and the pizza!
This is sooo lovely! I think it is really inspiring to take simple pictures of your life! I think I should start doing that too, if you don't mind being my inspiration.
that combo (tumeric+milk+honey) is the way to go!
i'm now inspired and comtimplating making a bird feeder out of a cocount shell (just need to find the right tools, of course) which by the way, random fact: you can mail a cocount. true story, i have sent one to a friend š

turmeric and milk! i'm intrigued… š
honestly yummy!
I love the candle idea, you little genius! Now I can use up all my old favourites x
I just love your grapefruit bird feeder. It is working so well for you too. Love all your photos. xx
Sweet little sleepy finch! š Cutie he is. That combination sounds wonderful, warming and very healthy all at once. No wonder you enjoyed it. (And really, what DOES take the place of yummy hot chocolate?) Or any chocolate for that matter…
Have a lovely weekend! We dedicated our Saturday post to your blog. Thank you for all the words you write and specially those useful tips

I love the idea of turmeric, milk, and honey as a wintry drink! How much turmeric do you use?
i used a few dashes. just enough until i liked the color!

Melting the candle on the radiator is such a great idea. I have a beautifully smelling blood orange candle, and I can see it nearing its end! No longer!
