Tech Hubby and I drove to Boulder today to visit his aunt who recently lost her husband. I love her house. It’s full of eclectic art and knick knacks she and her husband have collected over their years of marriage and travel. Even her throw rugs are ‘arty’. I especially enjoyed a piece of art made by the Maker’s Hands that was standing in her front yard, a white peony bush.
Isn’t it lovely? My pink peony bush has yet to bloom. I took several photos of hers to tide me over until the blossoms on mine finally make their appearance.
We had tea and home made bread with some wonderful, gooseberry flavored, Hero jam, a tasty salad and a tuna casserole. Dessert was angel food cake with whipped cream and berries. It was so nice to be ‘hospitalitied’ to instead of being the one who is offering their hospitality. It’s not that I mind being hospitable, it just makes for a nice change of pace. That’s all.
On our way out of town and headed back toward home, I stopped in at Healing tea and picked up a bag of Orchid Oolong tea, and Apricot Brandy tea the later of which my husband said, smelled like tobacco.
