Hi Everybody!
My weekend was really good, I hope your one was, too!
For my anything goes challenge at AJJ I have another A3 face painted with acrylics to share. I think the green and gold and sprouting plants here is to remind of us spring, which hopefully will be here very soon:
The weekend went by too quickly. On Saturday I was tired and it rained all day, so I declared a pyjama day, and enjoyed staying home with my feet up and doing nothing! Okay, I sorted my tablets into their daily boxes, and with so many to sort it took a full hour. After that I read a lot, and watched a film in the evening.
This evening we will start celebrating Elizabeth's T sTands for Tuesday link party, so here a warm welcome to all of the nice ladies of the T Gang who visit here.
On Sunday I went out to dinner again with Heike. We both had delicious meals and our usual drinks, but I forgot to take photos. But at least I took pics when we transferred to the Ice Parlour - cappuccino and cookies, and after a rest....
We decided to see if the waffles were good. I mean, we only stayed because it was pouring outside, and it would have been rude not to eat and drink....
Heike had the waffle with cherries and cream, and I had fruit salad, yogurt icecream and sauce on mine - delicious!
And some cold and frosty photos:
Have a great day, take care,
and thanks a lot for coming by!
Nice art vj.
ReplyDeleteYour photography is fabulous đ
Especially the skies are glorious! Those waffles make me hungry đ
Thanks Ashok, I love beautiful skies!
DeleteFlower is sure reminds me of spring.
ReplyDeleteCoffee is on and stay safe
Let's hope spring will soon be here!
DeleteWaffles, snow, ruins, your photos are all pretty.
ReplyDeleteYes, all the good things in life!
DeleteWow this is absolutely gorgeous, you are the queen of colour! Beautiful photos too. We've had snow too but nowhere near as pretty as yours. Take care and have a wonderful week, Sue xx
ReplyDeleteThanks Sue, snow can be lovely, and sometimes it's just cold and slippery!
DeleteYour long-necked beauties get more and more alluring, Valerie. You have carved out a niche for yourself with this genre. Now, as for this dining out, this is getting to be a habit. You don't provide us with a picture of this week's feast, but I can only imagine what you might have had after an eight- sausage plate last time. Maybe you graduated to the ten-sausage belly- burster. Then you moved on to waffles, and toppings, and decadence, after coffee and cookies already. Oy veh! Whatever else they did in the clinic they definitely tweeked your appetite genes! Better give my regards to Heike, your co-conspiratorial Sunday slurper. I am getting to know her. Think I'll have my lowly bowl of cereal now. Hugs and kisses - David
ReplyDeleteAh, a ten sausage belly buster sounds good! But they are very small sausages! I had a delicious steak with mashed potatoes and salad, yes! We were out again today, too, but only had coffee, and then went to the shoe shop to get new shoes,and now I have some very nice and comfortable ones. Heike, too. I will give her your regards! Hope you enjoyed your cereal, I am going to eat rice pudding this evening! Hugs, Valerie xxxx
DeleteBeautiful photos and art Valerie.
ReplyDeleteI'm out for lunch with friends today, I must try to remember to take photos đ
Wishing you a good week.
Alison
Thanks Alison, take some pics, it's always good to see what others are up to! Hugs!
DeleteHi Val, good morning! Or should I say good afternoon? Love your post today, and the enticing pictures of food. Just read what David wrote, he's a hoot! Have a great day, take care, I'll ring you this evening! Hugs from us all, Sarah
ReplyDeleteYes David is really a hoot, his comments always make me laugh. Have a great week, hugs!
DeleteBeautiful craft. The waffles look good. Beautiful shots of snowy landscapes.
ReplyDeleteThanks, have a good week, hope you soon feel better!
DeleteYour lady is a lovely woman to welcome spring, and I hope she does that. We have a big snow storm coming tonight; I really wonder if spring will ever arrive this year. Smile.But have your painted lady send some spring- maybe if you tell her she will. And your waffles look delicious. I think it's the perfect way to spend some time while it's raining. And a good way to warm up. Of course now I want waffles. Have a lovely new week and T day Valerie. I hope it warms up for you soon. hugs-Erika
ReplyDeletehaks Erika. I will tell my lady to send spring to you, hope she listens to me. It's warm and windy here today, and the sun keeps shining through the clouds. Stay safe if that big storm hits you, take good care! Hugs!
DeleteThose shades of green and blue look spectacular together. Sounds like you had the perfect weekend, a me day and going out with your friend. Those waffles look amazing. The cherry topping needs a drizzle of chocolate and then it would be a Schwarzwald Kirsch Wafel. I love your sky photos. Maybe I would love the snow photos better if we weren't getting slammed with a big storm tonight. Take care.
ReplyDeleteI love green and blue together, too. It was indeed a lovely weekend, perhaps a few too many calories....Stay safe when the storm comes, take care!
Deleteso amazing flowers:D
ReplyDeleteThanks Kathy, hugs!
Deletethe same to you dear!
DeleteThaks you!
DeleteSuch a beautiful face, love the addition of the gold. Enjoy your snow and keep safe. Anesha
ReplyDeleteThanks Anesha, enjoy your week! Hugs!
DeleteA pajama day with reading and a movie sounds perfect. Such pretty winter scenes! Happy tea day
ReplyDeleteAh yes, such days are always good for the soul!
DeleteWhat beautiful photos. Valerie. And yes, you are right. It would have been very impolite to stay at the cafe without eating something! It looks delicious and fun. So glad you can resume your activities again!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jeanie.. I think I need to put the brakes on, I don't want to buy new jeans!
DeleteThat lady has such pretty eyes. Love your waffle. Looks delish.
ReplyDeleteIt was delish!
DeleteThose photos are breathtaking. Love green and blue lady AND waffles:) Thanks for ordering Return. Appreciate ya. Take another Pajama Day or 2 or 3:) Hugs
ReplyDeleteThanks Sandra! Have a great week!
DeleteLoving the new lady but the Waffels were too much of a distraction, it's ages since I've had one and they look gorgeous. Wishing you a very happy and creative week but with plenty of rest inbetween too. Hugs Angela xXx
ReplyDeleteThanks Angela, yes, make some waffles!
DeleteA pajama day sounds perfect. Those waffles look sooo delicious, enjoyed all your photos too-no snow here but very cold and wind in the low 20's F Happy T and loved your art oo hugs Kathy
ReplyDeleteThanks Kathy, keep warmm! Hugs!
DeleteThe waffles look delicious. You were noble to order them rather than just occupying space while waiting for the weather to change.
ReplyDeletebest… mae at maefood.blogspot.com
Thanks Mae, we felt noble, too!
DeleteDon't those waffles look delicious :)
ReplyDeleteLovely photographs and colourful art.
All the best Jan
Thanks Jan, have a great day!
DeleteWunderschĂśn deine Dame!!! Waffeln kĂśnnte ich auch mal machen, lecker sieht es aus und so ist das Wetter mal so mal anders grossartig fotografiert von dir. Was soll man sonst bei diesem Wetter auch machen wie ausruhen.
ReplyDeleteLieben Gruss Elke
Waffeln sind gut! Dir eine gute Woche, hugs!
DeleteThanks Regine! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful lady - love the colors, the gold, and her pretty face. Lovely art, Valerie. Your waffles look fab (yum) and I love all your other pictures. So glad you are getting out more and feeling better. Happy T-day and hugz
ReplyDeleteThanks nancy, it's good to be back home after the long time in the clinic!
DeleteI wrote a long message, but I don't see it anywhere. I came back because I wasn't sure I had thanked you for sharing your lovely long neck lady with us at AJJ using your theme. If you don't find it, I'll have to start over.
ReplyDeleteThere's no other comment hiding, sorry, Blogger is sometimes trying! Hugs!
DeleteLove your artwork. It is inspiring and original. The waffles are my kind of breakfast. The coffee is a must first thing in the morning. Your photography is wonderful. Your zest for life is very apparent in the images you record. I am happy to hear you are feeling better.
ReplyDeleteL:ove, Hugs and Blessings
Thanks Jim, I am happy to be back home after the long time in the clinic!
DeleteI love this art today. I had PJ day on Saturday as well. The dark, gloomy, rainy day was just too much for me. Your photos are beautiful. I use to treat my kids to waffles topped with vanilla ice cream when they were little. Ohh so good. Have a great day today.
ReplyDeleteWaffles are really a wonderful treat. Hope all is well with you, hugs!
DeleteA lovely post! Your art is pretty too.
ReplyDeleteThanks Debra, have a great day!
DeleteI love your painting she is absolutely beautiful! Your waffles look delicious and the winter photos are so stunning! They made me feel cozy and happy. We have snow falling here as well. Wishing you a beautiful day!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Michele. Stay warm and cosy! Hugs!
DeleteYour lady is beautiful, Valerie! I love her!
ReplyDeleteOh, those waffles look so delicious! I think it is very considerate of you to order more food because you have to sit in that cafe because it's raining cats and dogs outside. I would have joined you! I love waffles, especially if they're well done.
Your frosty photos are lovely, they look wonderful. You certainly know how to capture the good sides of winter.
Thanks Carola. I love getting out on cold mornings and getting pics of the snow and frost before it disappears or get muddied. Hugs!
DeleteValerie.. love the picture of the SunDog and i can almost smell that Hyacinth! Your art at the beginning is very striking. Love the colors and the gold! Happy T day! Hugs! deb
ReplyDeleteThanks Deb, I'm always excited if I see a Sundog, and have to get my camera very quickly! Hugs!
DeleteGreat photos đ Have a nice day đ
ReplyDeleteThanks Martyna!
DeleteI am all in for pajama day! The waffles look delicious and I agree, it would be rude to leave without eating or drinking.
ReplyDeleteLove the art this week.
Happy Tea Day,
Kate
Thanks Kate, I think a lazy day every now and hen is really good! Hugs!
DeleteYour AJJ acrylic face is gorgeous! The waffles with cherries on them look scrumptious. Happy T Day.
ReplyDeleteThanks Sharon, the waffles were wonderful! Hugs!
DeleteThere is nothing like a PJ day. I don't have many but when I do it feels good.
ReplyDeleteLove your lady with al thke details around her eyes and the butterfly at her throat. `There is also the obvious Valerie touch with the hair which makes it your own. Great colour combination too.
I am not into waffles, at least `I don't think so, but if yours are anything to go by I think I could be persuaded to try them. Now I am sure i have seen them in Asda!
Hugs Neet xx
ps love the photos
Thanks Neet. Beware of waffles - once you start you will be hooked! Hugs!
DeleteWow! This is a treat of a post! First your wonderful lady - gorgeous colours too! Next coffee and WAFFLES! Finally wonderful Winter photos and a beautiful blue Hyacint! Belated Happy T Day, hugs, Chrisx
ReplyDeleteWaffles and coffee - and a nice flower - enough to be happy! Hugs!
