Fence Me In or Don't Fence Me In

I have been trying to make a decision about something and it was very much on my
mind when I went for my usual Sunday morning walk today. It's nothing really
important, but still, I have to make a decision.  You might say I'm on the fence
about this decision.

I always enjoy this walk because it puts me in touch with my neighbors and
neighborhood and I always end up at the Farmers’ Market which is a favorite of
my weekend outings.

As I was walking today I kept noticing all of the different kinds of fences my
neighbors have around their yards. Maybe I just happen to notice it more today
because I’m on the fence about a decision I have to make. You just never know
how things come together!

We certainly have a great variety of fences and lots of roses, hydrangeas, agapanthus,
cactus and tall grasses.  Here are a few that stood out to me this morning...













And look at this sweet little willow fence...

I love the variety.  How about you...Do you have a fence around your yard?  If so,
what is it like?  Or, by any chance, are you trying to make a decision about something?

Decisions, Decisions!!!

I have a friend stopping by for a cup of tea this afternoon. I haven’t seen her in a long
time so I wanted us to be able to spend the afternoon just relaxing and catching up with
each other. I thought it might be fun to have a few special things to go along with our tea.
So, this morning I went to Mademoiselle Paulette’s shop for some very special French
macarons (they are no longer macaroons). This shop is where I became so confused!
So many macarons and so little time!  As you can see I had major decisions to make...


Well, I chose some very lovely violette, rose, wedding coconut, mandarin chocolate
and pistachio macarons...as well as a few more flavors to enjoy with our tea.

Oh my goodness...I almost forgot, I also have some lovely biscuits and French rose
petal jam that we also might enjoy.

Tea for two and biscuits too!


Decisions, decisions!

Of course, we will definitely finish our tea with the heavenly, heavenly macarons.

It will be delightful and delicious catching up with an old friend!
