A friend and I had some plans to work on so we met at her house.
She was going to make us a simple breakfast with omelets.
When I saw her roses on the tray I thought this isn't a "simple" breakfast.
It actually was "simple made beautiful" by the touches she thoughtfully added.
A fresh flower adorned each of our plates.
Her crocheted mug jackets kept the coffee warm.
We ate and talked on her porch while a gentle
rain fell on a cool morning,
interrupted only by a check on the neighborhood's newborn ducklings.

Five photos today so I can join Five on Friday.
I love beautiful and simple. Your photos capture it well.

ReplyDeleteThose small touches make simple special! I just planted nasturtiums this morning so that I can add those blossoms to plates. Well, it it ever warms up enough to germinate the seeds!!
