…and various odds and ends
Hope Chest
One of two urns that arrived late yesterday afternoon. We unpacked and inspected them, then packed them up again. They are destined for the next porch.
I’m beginning the latest of many hope chests I’ve put together over the years; just odds and ends and bits and pieces, collected for making a home.
The coffee pot flowers are still giving sweetness after a week.
I’m keeping the coffee pot on the back burner of the apartment stove. They were made for each other.
Tuesday afternoon, the sign was placed in the front yard. Soon after, a professional photographer arrived. The show is officially on the road!
Stone Soup Cottage is a delightful place not far from the apartment. We stopped by the other day and found these vegetables fresh from the cottage gardens. Click the name for a look at their beautiful website.
I plan to do some cooking over the next couple of days, while we we take a break from packing and cleaning.
Our idea is to stay at the apartment now and then, through the process of selling our home. We will still be at home, because there is lots left to do there.
Last night was our first night here at the apartment. I slept better than I have in months. Just listing the house has been like a weight has been lifted from our shoulders.
