Hello everyone, I hope you are all enjoying this first weekend in February~ the month of romance! I welcomed in the month by enjoying some time curled up by our wood burning fireplace with a good book and a cup of hot tea.We don't use this fireplace often as our propane fireplace gives more heat for less work but there is nothing quite as cozy to me as the crackle of a wood fire so once in awhile we enjoy it. Since a wood fireplace always reminds me of the scenes in Rosamunde Pilcher's book Winter Solstice I decided to use my English teapot and chintz teacup. What about you .....do you enjoy curling up with a book and tea by the fireside? I do have an extra chair and book for you. I am pretty sure I can find a tea cup for you! I found another chintz teacup for you and some sheep cookies to go with our English tea. I hope you are relaxing on this lovely Sunday afternoon ~ so nice to treat yourself! You deserve it after all!!! I am joining Rose Chintz Cottage today for Tea Time Tuesday. Thank you for stopping by, Carolyn

A RUSA Award-winning novel!The first book in a new culinary cozy series full of sharp humor and delectable dishes—one that might just be killer.... When Lila Macapagal moves back home to recover from a horrible breakup, her life seems to be following all the typical rom-com tropes. She's tasked with saving her Tita Rosie's failing restaurant, and she has to deal with a group of matchmaking aunties who shower her with love and judgment. But when a notoriously nasty food critic (who happens to be her ex-boyfriend) drops dead moments after a confrontation with Lila, her life quickly swerves from a Nora Ephron romp to an Agatha Christie case.With the cops treating her like she's the one and only suspect, and the shady landlord looking to finally kick the Macapagal family out and resell the storefront, Lila's left with no choice but to conduct her own investigation. Armed with the nosy auntie network, her barista best bud, and her trusted Dachshund, Longanisa, Lila takes on this tasty, twisted case and soon finds her own neck on the chopping block…

As soon as we had our first snowfall I went down to our Boathouse with my camera and took a few shots of the little nook all decked out for the Christmas season. It was a perfect calm day, the trees are reflecting in the pond and with snow covering the ground and trees, it was beautiful! Candles,pinecones and lights. The vintage red and white handmade quilt adds just just the right touch. A wider view. A cup of tea and a Christmas magazine and I am ready to enjoy the nook. This little nook is one of my favorite plaves to relax with a good book.Hope you enjoyed a peek at it in it's winter/Christmas glory! If you would like to see an autumn look click here and for a summer look click here I have some photos of the rest of the Christmas Boathouse to share soon. Thank you for your visit! Carolyn
