Greetings from Quarter Deck Cottage!
We spent a few idyllic days here at the cottage.
The temperature was cold, hovering around 5 degrees in the daytime,
in the minuses at night.
Thankfully the sun has shone brightly every day!
We bundled up and took advantage of the sunny afternoons.
Someone had a birthday...
We had a tipple and a nibble on the day to celebrate the event.
We drove to Gowland Point and walked along the beach in a blustery wind.
The waves were SO BIG you could have surfed on them!
These icy branches looked so pretty juxtaposed with the red rosehips.
There is still snow on the ground where the sun has not melted it.
It is quite pretty but I have to admit that I am ready for warmer weather and Spring flowers!
We always visit the flower shop and buy a bouquet when we arrive at the cottage.
I choose yellow flowers to add a punch of colour in the winter months.
I made a batch of Lidia Bastianich's meatballs...
we serve them over noodles.
Very comforting on a cold evening.
We've read a lot and walked along the beaches in search of sea glass...
a bounty of sea glass was collected on someone's birthday!
a rare piece of cobalt blue glass
a heart shaped rock was also found on the beach.
Pretty soon we will need to find another vintage sealer jar
for the collection is growing quite quickly.
A delightful memoir...
a lovely story of a woman of a certain age who meets an Italian man
and moves to Venice to get married.
I am thrilled to hear that there is a sequel.
A Thousand Days in Tuscany.
Marlena and her husband live in a village quite close to the Tuscan village that our week long Italian cooking school and vacation is situated...
Lots of plans are underway for the various stages of our holiday to Italy and Provence then the Midi Pyrenees and to top it off a couple of days in Paris.
So much fun searching online and dreaming about the trip.
It will be here before we know it!
Hope that your week is off to a great start...
~ Be Well and Be Kind ~
