We've downsized long ago and with any luck when the time comes we'll find something like what they have here. (BTW, I know they are Tom's parents, but you are probably like we were, after a certain number of years you love them just as if ...) <br /><br />Loved the sheep story -- and your pictures. FB really paid off for you -- and certainly for Cappucinno and the other new one whose name I already forgot.) Great post loved the flowers of course ... nothing about it was too long.

I scour your photos (not in a creepy way) for all the backgrounds that show the gorgeous high summer countryside. And I must say, the new ewes are glad you are on Facebook again! Just in time for them to have a lovely retirement. Best wishes to your new furniture and happy garden, and of course to Tom's parents as they downsize.

I hope Tom's parents love their new home. I know that we love having a smaller home now. <br /><br />And I love that you have more sheep now! How wonderful to look out and see them all. And I have thoroughly enjoyed my glimpse into your garden. I want to plant daylilies here, might have to go to the old house and dig up some to transplant. <br /><br />And Laurie Colwin! I remember that she is a favorite of yours too. Hers are some I pull down just to read, even when I'm not looking for a recipe.
