Perfect Summer Dessert


Wonderful summer dessert - a jar of lemon curd whipped with light cream cheese topped with lush fresh berries on a split angel food cake. If you use a store-bought cake, this is a no-bake recipe. I think this would be good with pound cake too. YUM! via

Did you plant any seeds today?

Clouds over My Cottage


This is a recent sky view over my cottage captured with my trusty iPhone. Have a great weekend with or without white puffy clouds and a dark blue sky!

Broadway Tower Worcestershire UK


If you've never been to Broadway in the Cotswolds, you should definitely go. That's an order if you are going to be in England. I climbed to the top of this tower in the 1970s. I stayed at the Lygon Arms Hotel in a room with a Tudor decor. Photo source unknown.

This delightful marble bathroom must be in a very private location. It opens to a balcony or porch and the glazed door has no covering. People after my own heart. I love what I can see and want to see more. via Country Living
