Have a Wonderful Weekend

Life lately...
Capturing ordinary, everyday life in public spaces or life as its happens...

A car windshield makes a great surface for reflection photography. Trees reflected in my car's windshield. (Captured with my iphone.)

I always make coffee before I leave home, but I like to have a cup in the middle of the day, too.

Pumpkin Spice Latte and chocolate donuts only at Starbucks.

Taking in the beauty of the autumn scenery.

I can definitely feel fall is in the air. The autumn leaves are gorgeous right now, and I am encouraging everyone I know to spend a little extra time outside before the trees are bare and those amazing autumn leaves are gone.

Having a nice glass of wine after a hard day.
Sometimes it can be relaxing as long as you don't drink too much;)

Enjoying the last of summer's tomato bounty.

A Few Fall Leaves

I love autumn leaves! Golden yellow, burnt orange, bluish green, rich red all different colours make me feel all warm inside. As the weather cools off and fall sets in, Mother Nature is painting trees...

Five Things Tuesday

Farewell to Autumn!

Well hello, folks! Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving, spent with friends and family. Have a great December and stay warm! xx

Yesterday's Pumpkin Soup dinner. The sweet pumpkin smell filled the entire house.

Fresh citrus for morning juice.

Loving the colour combination in this one.

A Little Touch of Fall

So I've been a little bit crazy busy the last couple of weeks and haven't really had a chance to get out and enjoy this year's beautiful fall foliage.

Autumn Tapestry.

Here are a few fall pictures I've taken over the last month, if you'd like to see.

As Thanksgiving quickly approaches and everyone begins to think about what they're thankful for, I'm blown away by how blessed I am. There are so many things in my life I'm grateful for.
Today, I'm grateful for:

-my family. I'm so blessed to have a wonderful, caring and supportive family.

-my friends whom I cherish.

-all of you guys, and I feel the connection with you even though you're physically very far from me. Many of you have been with me for years and for that I'm eternally grateful.

-having a nice place to live and plenty of food to eat.

-waking up to this new day and for being alive.

-clear water.

-what I have experienced and overcome.

-enjoying life in the most simple ways.

-the love and support from the readers of my blog.

I'm also grateful for my cup of coffee in the morning. It's like a "hug in a cup."
I could go on...trust me.

Hope you have a great weekend! Enjoy the beauty of fall. xx
