from around the house
Scenes from around the house from the past week. The settling in took some time, but it's nice to feel like its home again. Don't you love it when you have your own little routines for doing things, simple things like sitting down with a cup of tea and the newspaper, finishing off in the kitchen at night and so on.
A window by my bedside. We get afternoon and evening light from this window, very warm and welcoming.
The oldest recipe book I have which was gifted to me by a dear friend called Rosalie, with whom I worked in a bakery when I was in college. She taught me how to roll pastry dough, how to make pies and so much more.
Night time lights.
I've been growing green onions in water. It's super simple and they grow really fast. Just chop off the green bit and plonk them in water, and voila, they'll grow! I know that they're so cheap to buy, but it's nice to 'grow' something on your own too, isn't it?

There is nothing as welcome as the sunlight streaming into the house through the window.
Glad you both think the same way!
Shilpa, :-) And you always understand so well!
Hena, Yes, it's nice to go away for a while, but always nice to come back too!
Mom with a Dot, Thanks, I change the water daily, since I don't want it getting grungy. We are eating it after all!
Victoria, thank you :-)
