On my way around the local thrift store last week, I spied this chair.( when will I learn to take a before pic?) It was painted a dark brown and there was nothing special about it really.
I knew though that it would be a perfect little paint project which is what I did..
I'm happy with the result...
This adorable bird pillow really accessorizes the chair nicely...I purchased it locally in a cute, little store in Elora. Loved it, and turned a blind eye to the price for once..:)
I have also had a little time to read, and have been very engrossed in this book.
It turns out to be one I can not put down and I have been trying to discipline myself and savor it by reading it slowly, which is hard to do.
I'd recently read another one by her, A Gathering Of Finches which gave me a respect for the author. She writes about actual people in history in a very real and honest, intricate way .
I highly recommend this at times heart wrenching but courage filled story ...
I did manage with my daughter's help to pick a bowl full of currants which I canned into juice...
Then I found a recipe for zucchini currant muffins and I wish I had left more out...
Oh well maybe I'll buy currants and freeze them:) The zip in the muffins is so yummy.
I think it is rather serendipitous that the zucchini and currants are ready at the same time! :)
How have you been? I hope your week is going well!
