All the trees are bare here. It's nice to see your pretty leaves. Aren't those croissants from TJ's the best? I like the chocolate ones the best but I only buy them once or twice a year because I could get into big trouble with them!
Dearest Mary, Some cozy pictures from progress and beauty in and around your home. Aha, you also have the joy of being near a Trader Joe's. Will be running my rounds in Atlanta soon enough for stocking up. This year is flying by! Hugs, Mariette
Thank you for the Amaryllis picture especially. It reminds me so vividly of my mother who always insisted on having some ready to bloom over Christmas or in the dark days of January and February.
I love almond croissants.We were only talking this afternoon about if /when we will get to France and taste the best almond croissants ever.Fingers crossed before C gets too old/ tired to drive 6 hours from here to the Channel.
Dear Mary, Your Amaryllis look very promising. I love watching them grow, sometimes even bring out additional blooms. Looking forward to seeing pictures.
Nice colors on those trees. Amazing that the roses are still blooming. Trader Joe's, eh? We have one in the state and I do enjoy stopping by. I should pick up an amaryllis because I have always wanted one. It could keep me company over the Christmas season. 😃
Mary, I'm right there with you! I've tried the new Picmonkey, but it's confusing and I always give up. Why change a good thing? I used it often all these years, and like you from its beginning. Straight forward! Now, it is layers of confusion for me. Hope we can master this new one! Happy Holidays ahead, dear friend.
A BREATH OF FRESH AIR is a fresh version of my former three year blog ACROSS THE POND which can still be accessed by clicking on the title above. I'm a transplanted Brit enjoying life in North Carolina.
Sixty two years of journeying back and forth across the wide Atlantic Ocean have kept me busy…….and made my life very interesting! Although I've now visited all seven continents, I continue to travel and look forward to sharing new places around the world. I love taking photos! All images are my own unless noted otherwise. Please do not use my photos without a request. I enjoy sharing and will usually say OK!

Good things on a Saturday morning. Our trees are quickly losing their leaves, but the colours this year have been amazing. Enjoy your Sunday!
