‘Portlandia’ Part 2
colors from the Portland farmer’s market
although not dressed as colorfully as some, this ‘Portlandian’ has a heart of gold…
he treated my two cousins and me to this last piece of the best almond cake on earth!!!!
According to the proprietor he treats someone each week – if you are in the right place at the right time……….!!!!
‘Portlandia’
Visiting Portland for the first time, coming from the land of drought to the land of green….Saturday farmer’s market was a delight!!!
alongside the green – many colorful options – and colorful people!!!
tomorrow…………………..
’tis the season…
…not for Christmas, for red, ripe, strawberries…
served over flaky, slightly crisp rounds
of lemon scented scones
springtime in a bowl!!!
An artichoke observed
a delightful way to spend a Sunday afternoon!!!
If cutting boards could talk…
Christmas at Crossroads, of course, included a visit to Miss Vicki at Homepieces in McKinney- always on the cutting edge of casual home design…her unerring eye captures the latest trend…cutting boards!
the tales these boards could tell…
perhaps of the aroma of freshly baked bread…
or of the succulent heaviness of aged fruitcake…
of the hands fashioning their design,
or of the journey bringing them to this particular place;
now looking for a new home and new tales to tell.
