A high note

#Sundaystills Sweet snippets

Posted on Feb 19, 2023 by Bernie

“Look, Mommy, the moon is half grown,” stated a clean but tired 4 year old. We were walking back from the camp bathroom. It was, I recall, a stellar camping weekend with friends. I’m unsure what lake we were at or what we ate but I remember her warm small hand in mine as we walked back.

Slaying the dragon…not

Posted on Feb 16, 2023Feb 16, 2023 by Bernie

I’m definitely feeling like a fairie that’s lost its magic. Not much dragon slaying happening. Of course, I’m not sure fairies slay dragons, but perhaps you catch my drift.

A piece of shoe lace…?

Posted on Jan 13, 2023Jan 13, 2023 by Bernie

A Serendipitous Encounter

Posted on Nov 28, 2022Nov 28, 2022 by Bernie

Thankful for Cranberries

Posted on Oct 10, 2022Oct 10, 2022 by Bernie

This is a true story about my Nanna and my cranberrry chutney. Not together but the threads tie it up like a trussed turkey.

Woven & stitched with love

Posted on Sep 2, 2022Sep 2, 2022 by Bernie

It’s a story decades in the making and deserves to be recorded. I’ve been “commisioned” to create the ending of it. A label is simply not enough in this case.

Thoughtful Thursday Bouquet

Posted on Sep 1, 2022Sep 1, 2022 by Bernie

There are some moments as a parent, even of adult children, that your heart swells. This past week provided such a warm glow that I felt it was worthy of sharing.

3 months ago…

Posted on Aug 21, 2022Nov 19, 2022 by Bernie

3 months ago today seemed like it would be “the right day”. 3 months ago today seemed to be a long distance off. 3 months ago it all seemed like a good idea.  And now….
