Closed 'Til Spring
Winter's icy hands are just about upon us...and my cherished backyard cafe will be put to sleep. I will miss our mornings out on the patio drinking coffee while reading the paper, watching the birds, cats, squirrels and chipmunks scatter about. Weekend plans to stay home and garden or work on another project, or take a drive to the beach will have to wait until warmer weather.
After-dinner coffee or drinks were my favorite time of day... a cup of coffee and a good book, with the birds singing their good-nights. I'll now sit inside, cozy and warm, wrapped up in a favorite throw on my cushy loveseat, reading my seed catalogs, books, dreaming of next year's spring... and wondering what surprises she'll bring.

I know how you feel....it's been raining loads here & it's sad to look out at the garden thinking only a few months ago I was growing my veg. Although you make winter sound nice!! Do you get lots of snow?? Living in Devon we don't get very much which a shame because I love it. How the blanket going??? :)

I to miss those days, here we haven 't for ages, we would sit out side and read or write, play with the dog and watch the cats tease him. Best wishes fiona
Yes those days have been put to bed for the year Sue but I am already planning for next spring - in my mind that is. We are planning a new patio and I can't wait for the long days when we can just sit and contemplate the world, after the chores in thhe garden are done, lol.
your gardens are lovely and so is
your kitty, please visit our new blog ....thanks again,

Oh,, I do miss the garden as well, but I also like snuggling up in front of the fire and doing my crochet, with the blanket growing on my lap. And there's spring to look forward to! x
What a lovely spot to look forward to once the wintery blasts are behind us.
At least you have a plan for your indoor adventures until Spring comes back again!
I just came up with a good Winter plan last night.. so I'm feeling a little less depressed that the Sun isn't shining as bright for the next few months!
Many Blessings~ Sage
I don't blame you for missing that cozy space. I can just imagine sitting out there with a cup of coffee in the early morning....warm breezes, birds singing...flowers blooming. Oh I'm getting Spring fever just looking at it!
Hugs,
Dena
