February Favourites
I wanted to share with you a few of my favourite things and what I love about this time of the year.
Can't get enough of the cherries, this season the juicy, ripe dark fruit are really the best I have tasted
Rushed to get my camera the other day, when I saw this beautiful old sailing ship sail by the window
With the heat and mosquitoes around it is all a little much and I am actually looking forward to cooler weather and did not think I would ever say that.
The cotton mosquito net has been good - at night the windows can be open wide and the breeze blows through and you can hear the little mosquitoes making a racket, but they can not get in.
It is the high season for the cruise ships and on Friday there were three in port. The Queen Elizabeth, is impressive looking up at the majestic huge boat. Downtown Auckland was really bustling with all the tourists getting about, to see a little of the City.
Now to share a few pretty roses and gypsophila I bought from the market
Enjoy the little things in life
How can it be that we are now in the month of March!
Have a wonderful week dear friends
hugs

The simplest pleasures in life are sometimes the best. Glad there is so much for you to enjoy in February. It's still cold in NYC but I'm quite enjoying being home lately :) Happy March Carolyn!

Such lovely February things! A long time till cherries here, but it is good to think that they are being enjoyed elsewhere in the world right now! xx
ReplyDeleteCarolyn, CHERRIES are my favorite fruit! Oh, that mosquito net is a great idea, and I love your bedding. I just decorated my bedroom in white too. Is that the view outside your window, that's amazing! Your February favorites are very nice.
ReplyDeleteHave a splendid week, Carolyn.

Dearest Carolyn,
ReplyDeleteYou make me crave for some juicy cherries, that is so special and hard to imagine that we can only have them fresh for once a year. Well, imported from the other half of the hemisphere... We love to eat them in winter when they come from South America.
Your mosquito net looks like a real effective measure and it makes you sleep through at least.
Love your roses and especially with the dreamy and romantic gypsophila!
Hugs,
Mariette
Dear Carolyn!
ReplyDeleteI also love cherries and this beautiful dress!!!!!

Enjoy the heat ....you don' t have to travel far away for good weather ...
The tourists are coming to YOU!!!
You live on such a beautiful place on earth!
Happy week!
With love,

Hello dear,
ReplyDeleteoh Carolyn your cherries looks sooo tasty, and sooo beautifully ripe. And I simply LOVE your bed and the net around, so romantic I think, here from DenmaRK where such is not needed !! I can almost see those racket mosquitoes attacking , lol. Here it is so cold and still very windy,-not much spring !
Hugs and love from Dorthe
Those cherries make my mouth water! I'm not sure I would like to share your mosquitoes! I dive under the covers when I hear them buzzing over head and in variably get bitten! Sarah x

ReplyDeleteI love cherries too, but they never seem to be around for long enough - what a fabulous view from your window.
ReplyDeleteHi Carolyn, What lovely favorites you are enjoying this season. The cherries look delicious. How wonderful you captured the sail boat going by. Love your netting around the bed. Your room is so romantic and lovely while helping with the mosquitoes. Your roses are beautiful. Wishing you a lovely rest of the week and thank you for stopping by while I've been away.
ReplyDeleteHugs and Blessings, CM
Dear Carolyn,
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely dress you are wearing! I have a thing with 'polka dots' too :-) What a delight it must be to have such an amazing view. The blue of the ocean and the white ship look like a dream to me.
Enjoy the rest of the week!
