flipping blueberry pancakes
running through sprinklers
reading under the shade of our magnolia
my little lass bathed in dappled light
welcoming the milk moon
downton abbey season 2
waking up between my little lass and the nacho
first iced coffee of the season
extra half & half just because
diapers on the clothesline
how was your weekend?
ps: i’m in need of some quiet time. i’ll see you back here in a few days!














I’ve been enjoying many jars of iced coffee myself, might be why I haven’t slept much this past week. I think diapers on a clothes line is one of the most precious sights there is in the world.
Hope you are keeping cool.
Every line, my idea of simply lovely.
Your weekends sounds so relaxing and wonderful. Thanks for sharing.
You had me under the shade of the Magnolia……
So are you loving that issue of Bon Appetit- so much good stuff!
Happy Sunday.
Oh, sounds wonderful and warm.
We hopefully had our last snowstorm this weekend…

Lovely.
I’m really annoyed I never knew Downton Abbey would be so good when it was on BBC!
Enjoy your break!

Enjoying the sun coming out after a rainy week.
Taking in the smell of freshly cut grass deposited by my mister into my composting bin and then turning the pile a bit.
Knitting at my Knit Swirl class.
Sipping ice coffee with a friend.
Test knitting heaven in the sun outside.
Finding the sweetest frog on the deck and rescuing him from the painter’s dog. I’ll e-mail you the photo.
Living in the moment and feeling really happy.

Enjoy your quiet time!
I love iced coffee no matter the weather.
Extra half and half – absolutely!! Reading under the shade of a tree – one of my favorite warm weather activities.
Enjoy the break! Completely understand the need for one.
Iced coffee FTW! Canning jars are the only way to go.

I think blueberry pancakes, iced coffee (with extra cream, oh yes) and diapers on the line are three of my very favorite things. Seriously.
wishing you a sweet stretch of quiet and relaxing days ahead~

I’m not big on coffee, but I do enjoy iced coffee every so often. I’m more of a milkshake girl.
Blueberry pancakes sound delicious. I’ve seen tons of talk around the internet about downtown abbey. Is it on Netflix? I’ll have to check it out.
Our weekend was spent at the beach and here at home doing garden type stuff.

I love me some iced coffee! Can’t even think about sprinklers yet though, just happy to have the sunshine and looking forward to getting some gardening done today. http://wonderfullycrazyhome.blogspot.com/2012/05/weekend.html
Isn’t it lovely, just being able to sit outside and enjoy?!? I never realize how much I miss it during the winter until I get back to it in spring. Hope all is well.
pancake flipping! beautiful. gee whiz that new baby is a cute little pancake!
Enjoy your break! I’m going to step into the kitchen and pour this here coffee over ice now…
Enjoy your quiet time!

love. especially the margaritas and roasted asparagus
then we are kindred spirits
mj, it’s out on netflix. i’ve been waiting for them to send it to me forever because there was a “very long wait”…worth the wait. also, noticed it is also available at red box kiosks…just so you know
i will. i promise, next time i wash them to take a photo and send it to you because i get it.
and iced coffee here: http://www.thehabitofbeing.com/journal/?p=663
yay! and welcome
hee hee…the mr. saw my fb status from yesterday and called, he’s bringing home chocolate today. never underestimate the power of fb!!!
We read outside this weekend too. It was heavenly!
Ah Magnolias are some of my most favorite trees. I do miss them and the crepe myrtle even though we have Japanese Mags here. Blueberry pancakes, sprinklers, your little lass-all of it sounds so very beautiful. I hope you catch up on some rest, space and time this week.
xoxo,
Ang
Enjoy your quiet time Amanda…we’ve had a lovely quiet weekend and hope the rest of your week proves to be so too.

Just looking at your photo of your first cup of iced coffee made me all happy. Love the jar too!
It’s good to have a break sometimes, enjoy every moment.
