:: sedums & blackberry jam

I'm loving my Autumn Joy Sedums right now.

They are hitting their full growth cycle, 

and mine are even starting to bloom.

I see them everywhere, and I'm so attracted to them.

It's so funny how my taste in plants changes over time,

I used to not really like them that much, but now I think they are perfect.

I love their structure, and the color of the foliage, 

and those bloom heads... simply gorgeous don't you think.

So as you can see I spent the morning in my gardens,

I've been up since 5:30am, and it was lovely to be in the gardens at sunrise.

First I took Miss Libby Lu for a long walk, then I took little Mister Hamilton,

then it was back inside to grab my camera and catch the beauty of my gardens.

When I was done with all of the weeding & watering,

I came inside to enjoy my morning coffee from my new coffee bar : ).

I also spoiled myself with an indulgent treat for breakfast this morning.

Homemade Blackberry Jam

MMMMmmmmmmmm

Delish

Look at that gorgeous color,

notice anything else?

Yep, it's pretty near empty....

Oh but it was so delicious.

Good to the very last bite,

but now I'm sad that it's all gone.

See what a little piggy I am.

Hope you are having a beautiful morning too.

Remember to take time to smell the flowers.

*peace, love & hugs*

{ morning light }

A view into my home bathed in the morning light.

I am blessed by the beauty that the rising sun adds to my home each day.

{ red bud blooms and my favorite white tulips }

I love how the light shines through the tulips petals.

{ my vintage salt hen, bathed in the warmth of the morning sun }

{ my new chicken wire cloches, protecting little beauties }

{ more white tulips albeit silks, and a sweet little greenhouse a gift from my sister }

{ a lovely vintage chenille bedspread in my bedroom reading chair, I love the texture and softness  }

{ a fun silk pillow,  more of the texture I so love }

{ and a lovely knit pillow, a gift from my bestie who knows how much I love knits }

May the morning sunlight warm you as it does me each day.

{ peace & love }
