Friday Foto Friends

I really don't have many new photos to share with you today as I shared them all yesterday. So I may have to go searching for something "new" or maybe something not so new. Let's see where this goes...

Yesterday morning I was enjoying the way the morning sunlight was filtering in through the blinds in the kitchen.  I know the pictures aren't very bright, but this is the view from my kitchen sink and it just made me smile.  There's those muffins I made the day before...yum.  

And that pillow on that stool says "Friends are the flowers in life's garden".  I have always loved that saying. We can never have too many flowers in our garden...just like we can never have too many friends.  Being so isolated these past months has made me really appreciate my friends here in blogland even more!! Thank you for being such a lovely bouquet!!

Just another view in my kitchen...there's the needlepoint that my paternal Grandmother made many years ago.  It says: "Come into my kitchen and chat with me while I prepare a pot of tea." Just let me know when you are coming, and I will put the kettle on! Or even if you just happen to drop by, I will be so happy to see you and will gladly put the tea kettle on...or the coffee pot if you prefer!





There are several places to sit and visit with me while we wait for the tea kettle to boil...

We can be like these two little old ladies, sitting with our crochet needles working while we visit. 
(sorry you can see the reflection of my cell phone over that sweet old lady's face. I'm sure she never dreamed of such a thing back in her day!)

Welcome to my kitchen.  You can see the tea things are already set out for us.

Again, I like the way the sunlight was shining on this favorite decorative plate that says:
"Cherish your family for they are your treasure.
A storehouse of riches...wealth beyond measure."

Yes, we treasure our families as well as our dear friends.  We are blessed if we are able to enjoy both!

A few thoughts for today from Proverbs:

Proverbs 24:3-4
3.  "Through wisdom a house is built,
and by understanding it is established;
4.  By knowledge the rooms are filled 
with all precious and pleasant riches."

Proverbs 31:25-30
25. "Strength and honor are her clothing;
She shall rejoice in time to come.
26.  She opens her mouth with wisdom,
and on her tongue is the law of kindness.
27.  She watches over the ways of her household,
and does not eat the bread of idleness.
28.  Her children rise up and call her blessed;
Her husband also, and he praises her:
29.  "Many daughters have done well,
But you excel them all."
30.  Charm is deceitful and beauty is passing,
but a woman who fears the Lord,
she shall be praised."
