Home

Good morning. It is wonderful to be home. We travelled to Guelph on Monday afternoon and arrived home last night.
Believe it or not we had banked the wood furnace enough that there were still hot coals and we just needed to add a bit of wood and paper and away the fire went . It is a very good furnace and keeps the home fires burning well.
While it is lovely visiting our family I miss the gentle quiet of home. Part of the reason we travelled to Guelph was to purchase wall paper for the front parlour. We found what we were looking for fairly quickly and it matches the original somewhat. Apparently wallpaper went out of fashion and is now just starting to come back..I did not know that
Today will be spent Christmas baking. With only 10 days until Christmas day I want to finish up as much as possible. I already have hundreds of cookies sitting in the parlour aging to perfection.And they will be the gifts this year for everyone except the children. The light is just coming up outside my window and it appears that today will be another windy wet day . We have wood to bring in today so it will be cold again. The house is lovely and warm though . I was planning on doing some sewing  but the light will not be high enough today to do it . I will have to wait for another day.Well the wood stove is gaining temperature and there is water to heat and breakfast to cook...Talk to you soon
