1.5 hours

Goat Cheese, Beets and Portobello Mushrooms with pesto, tomato and greens...grilled on Multigrain bread...yum!!! 

Every Wednesday, this homeschooling mama gets 1.5 hours all to herself in the middle of the her day, in the middle of her week. It's truly amazing what you can accomplish in 1.5 hours; how much sanity can be restored in just 90 minutes.
Today, I spent some time at one of my favourite little hangouts having lunch with you, in a manner of speaking.
Thinking about all the places I'd love to take you if ever you found yourself in my neck of the woods.
Wondering about what we might do together, if ever I found myself in yours.  
It's funny, how the world can seem so big and so small at the very same time.

If you were in mine I would take you to a funny restaurant called "Pig Finca" for a metze platter and then we come home for a walk along the beach and then have tea and treats in my flat -

I hope we can do it someday!! (Or subway will have to do - giggle!)

Taking it all in... the view, the yummy sandwich... but mostly YOU, your words, and I'm so thankful for that 1.5 hours that gave you a second to relax, to daydream, and sneak in a post...

Missed your softness, your words...

(((HUGS))),
Love,
Me

Exactly! I would take you to the mountain, and I would take you to the ocean, all in 90 minutes. That's this little world of mine.

That sandwich looks so yummy!

The world really does seem big and small at the same time...big in physical size, land and sea...but oh so much smaller when we all put our hearts together.

This is so great! I love that you take this time for yourself...I need to learn to do something like this for myself too. And that sandwich looks scrumptious!

I would so love to have lunch with you...
If you came here though I'd have prepare you a little feast at my home because we don't really have any restaurants to speak of.

Love to you...
