Hello dear friends in the blogging world

it has been far, far too long

since my last visit.

We are long overdue for a chat.

 

2015 seems a blur

365 days and nights - come and gone.

So, lets start with a highlight of the year.

 

There was one bit of travel...

 

SWA heading East to Austin

a sweet visit with my daughter in Austin

My hand in hers

and a first time use of airbnb

which was fabulous!!
I highly recommend it.

 

I found a little cottage not far from where she lives..

just big enough for a sleep over

so we could spend quality time together

 

Center of the cottage - seating area



Looking out to kitchen - bathroom was to the left of the kitchen



looking from the kitchen area down to super comfy Murphy Bed
directly above is a loft with the second bed

 

writing desk

This darling cottage had absolutely EVERYTHING one could ever need.
 
right down to a perfect pasta bowl for a yummy dinner we made

Penne with olive oil, roasted yellow peppers,
 asparagus, kalamata olives - topped with Romano cheese 
mmmmmmmmmmmmm

ingredients purchased at the most wonderful place -
Central Market!!
Oh, how I loved that place.  LOVE!!
How I wish we had one here.




Look at the bread they turn out!!!
heavenly.

Vietnamese coffee - swoon

I had this wonderful coffee each day of my little visit and I crave it still.



She treated me to this modern ballet - wonderful

After a little tour of the downtown area,

we went to this fabulous

modern ballet.  It was wonderous to sit next to my girl

and share this.

 

After the show we went for Thai food - delish! 

 

The cottage had Wi-Fi

so we both stayed connected,

and while it rained or was overcast every day

I didn't mind a bit....

 

because I was with my little bird.

 

One evening we met up with her circle of friends -

an amazing and close group

and I felt so happy that she had these

great people around her always

and I felt touched to the deepest part of my heart

that she wanted to introduce me

and THEY wanted to meet.

 

The cottage had a selection of movies to watch

and music to play.

One could literally pack only a suitcase of clothes

everything else was there in the cottage.

 

It was a place that I could imagine myself living in..

just enough space

and so cozy and comfortable.

 

It was not enough time with my girl, however,

it never is.....

 

but the time was the making of a beautiful memory

and I am so very grateful we had it.

  
 

 And now...I promise.......I will be back soon

with more of what has been going on

at Faerieluna
