Haiku My Heart / Sunday Sketches



What a mess I cried

but looking closer I see

life in the making


advent

roses

dinner

tradition

food for the soul

seasonal rhythm


Linking to:

Haiku My Heart at recuerda mi corazon and

Sunday Sketches at blue chair dairy

    I immediately thought, as I looked at the first photo, of how normal and lived in this kitchen looked. I was so pleased to be invited over to see your life as you live it and not staged. Thanks for sharing that with us.
    I loved all the photos and this walk through your life. Very nice.

    Peace

    dear lenorita,

    welcome to haiku my heart!
    your view of the heart of the home, an active expressive kitchen is comforting and kind, as are you. so glad you are joining in haiku after meeting you and loving each of your offerings for a virgin a day.

    I love your wonderful images! I'm sure we can all relate to the mess that living life makes...but we want to do it over and over again, no? I especially like the salmon colored napkins!

    I love it all, the gingerbread men, the sketch, the clove and orange. The warmth of home. It is beautiful. There is a poem on my blog by Naomi Shihab Nye in this post :
    http://theangelswearfins.blogspot.com/2011/09/where-children-live.html. It is called "Where Children Live. I think you will like it.
