Resurrection!

HR and I drove to our favorite Savannah library this morn to return a book we had just finished. [Boys Come First, our 161st (!) book we have read together.]

Walking out of the Bull Street Library, I saw this incredible old Live Oak …

It rained yesterday, so the resurrection fern was in proud display.

Walk closer with me.

If it doesn’t rain anymore, in a couple of days, the resurrection fern will dry up, be dark brown, and look dead.

Until the next rain.

Monday Moaning or Monday Marveling? 12/19/22

Definitely marveling this Monday morning.

Last night I made my rosemary spiced nuts for the holidays, and our apartment still smells incredible this morn.

South Georgia pecans and walnuts; a mixture of brown sugar, cayenne pepper and Kosher salt; finely chopped rosemary from my window herbs, and melted butter.

15 minutes later …

Deliciously marvelous holiday joy.

1. Our new turtle ornament!

2. Savannah holiday wreathes near us.

3. Our fingers. Our toes. What a blessing.

4. The incredible beauty of the Atlanta Botanical Garden’s annual “Garden Lights, Holiday Nights.” Each year it gets better and brighter!

The Garden Goddess

A little video featuring some of the musical lights hanging from the tall garden trees.

5. The cutest holiday grandchild in the history of grandchildren.
