April days

Over the years, we have enjoyed many good meals at restaurants in our area. Grateful for all. And I like being home now, and seeing the seasons in the yard when we share meals. Sometimes we bring good meals home from local places. I worked at a bakery in high school, and a restaurant in college. And I enjoyed shopping for my mother and preparing meals at her home during what I call “the caregiving years.”
And I will be watching for butterflies and bees in our gardens.
everyday work
and easy to achieve
recycle cans
miracle
of an open window
bird songs
small flowers
near the kitchen windows
hummingbird
everyday beauty
to care for and see
flowers and trees
Earth Day was founded on April 22, 1970. You can visit Gaylord Nelson, Founder of Earth Day for more information.
This Holy Week, I plan to read from Jan Karon’s book, Bathed In Prayer: Father Tim’s Prayers, Sermons, and Reflections from the Mitford Series (Author Copyright 2018; G.P. Putnam’s Sons, New York).
You can learn more about Jan’s books at Jan Karon’s Mitford site.
Yesterday, I wrote about The Mitford Museum and then spent more time learning about all their work. And more to learn!
Jan Karon is the founder of The Mitford Museum in Hudson, NC. Her novels are wonderful. Please visit the beautiful site for more information. There is also an online Gift Shop at the site.
