The other day I lunched outside...at our little bistro table on the patio...
I had just a simple lunch-a sandwich and a few fresh strawberries.
I set the table with a cloth I love...cut a few roses...
and even tied my napkin with a ribbon...
as I sat enjoying the sounds of the waterfall splashing into the pool and the birds singing...
I thought- about nothing really...
just a few daydreams here and there...
it seemed that my simple lunch became so much more...
a gift- to myself...
a quiet moment...a time to be still...
a time to catch my breath and count my Blessings...
from such a simple moment came such a glorious time!all at a "table for one"!
Have a lovely day!
Many Blessings!
Such a pretty table setting, Jill! I love the pattern on the tablecloth. I love simple things such as this...your meal looked yummy even though it was a sandwich...the quick ones are always pleasers with me.
