quiet days
2011

:: finding the sun in different places

:: enjoying the sharp, crisp air on our cheeks when we step out for chocolate

:: starting the day with sweet, buttery and warming “podge”

:: topping up our cold-ridden bodies with home-squeezed vitamin c

:: following the hearts to wherever they might take me …

:: so sweet!

:: and when the night draws in, cold, wet and quiet, filling our bellies with chicken and lemon soup.

beautiful post!
I would love to talk hormones and glands with you. That soup looks delicious!
::sigh:: I’ve just been catching up with you, Miss Lily. I do so enjoy visiting your corner of the world — it takes me away to such a lovely, lovely place! Thank you for the visit!
ooooo chicken lemon soup. mmmmmm. recipe? i was sick recently too and some homemade chicken soup from a friend worked miracles. here’s hoping the same for you!
i love your photos. especially the bowl you have in most of the pictures. my grandma had that same china pattern and i miss her and the wonderful food eaten from her plates and bowls. thank you for the sweet reminder.
Miss you Lily, hope all is well down south.

I enjoy reading your blog very much. It’s rather like sipping a perfect cup of coffee on a cold day. It’s odd to me sometimes, though, because I’m in North America, so I’m being blanketed in humidity, and photographing the first summer storm while you’re cosy-ing in for the cold months.
