THE KITCHEN WINDOW

The kitchen window ......with a tiny pot crafted by our son. It's holding a wishbone. I'm saving it for or our grandson who wants to have a wish.

Topiary, crafted by me. The ivy helped by growing and growing, even when it doesn't get watered promptly.

Moon hanging. Recipes, a friend gave me this holder--she made it. I added a magnet of time--but it only has one hand so time is never up.

Another friend said, "You'll love this. A pot with a smile."

Another gave this holder...

...I added a picture of Jesus.

A long time ago, too long to remember, another friend, gave me this heart candle. I tossed in some rose buds from a store that is now gone.

In this window are flowers.

A Cyclamen, with a bud that's... ...that's half hidden.

The geranium is blooming... ...and not yet. It looks like it's snowing but the window needs washing. Phil will get the ladder and soap. He's like that, doing everything I need.

I love to cook in this kitchen and he loves to eat. It's a good trade off.

I didn't realize so many friends, and one son, contributed to my window. I actually think of them often, when I'm reading a recipe, saving a wish, I think of them all, with the lovely/funny things they gave me. How I love each item in the "still life" of my window, and I love each of my friends, and my son, and my hungry husband who makes sure there are flowers in my window.
