The Foot Stamp

 

And just when it looked like spring sat on the horizon, Mother Nature decided to stamp her foot! 

The weekend, with its snow and wind, proved the perfect time for hunkering down and settling in. 

Lots of slow, sweet yin yoga. 

Falling headfirst into a good book and finishing it...only to open another and dive into that story, too. 

Phone calls with family and friends, unhurried and with lots of silly laughter. 

Baking. Yesterday I baked macarons, one of my most favorite cookies. The recipe is easy and the results are delicious! The Food Network recipe worked wonders and Stonewall Kitchen's Mango Peach Jam filled them beautifully. And no, I'm not affiliated with either link. I merely want to show that French macarons can be a snap to bake!

I'm grateful for the snow and wind that made its appearance this past weekend. The invitation to slow down came at the perfect time. Just so many opportunities to find pockets of peace...what's not to love? 

Happy Monday, friends!
