A little under the weather!

I can't seem to stay well this fall. Starting the 1st of September, I began to get sick with the flu. It lasted two miserable weeks. Apparently, an early season this year for the flu. Not fun at all. Two days ago I noticed a sore throat and congestion coming on. Today I can barely speak. Ugh... Really?

I decided to make homemade chicken noodle soup for dinner. I've  been thinking about it all day. It was better than ever. An easy recipe I've had for years, and one that my family loves.

So I settled in for the night with my handmade vintage sheet pajamas, a handmade vintage afghan, a burning vintage oil lamp given to me by my favorite Aunt, and a bowl of homemade chicken noodle soup! A thoughtful night!

An easy Sunday...

Today was a good day. Slow and easy. Up early to drink coffee, let the chickens out to do some free ranging, took a nap, mulched the garden, set out the carrot seedlings, hung laundry out to dry, homemade ham and potato soup for dinner, some mindless tv and now off to bed.

A weekend @ Mexico Beach, FL.

What a wonderful weekend I had @ Mexico Beach, FL. It was a much needed getaway. No schedule. Just a 'lets do whatever' kinda weekend.

Sunsets, early morning sunrise, long walks on the beach, great seafood, a boat ride, search for shells, red wine, a bonfire, new friends and lots of laughs. Perfect!
