~ 94 ~ Walk With Me Around the Home (Hey, don't roll your eyes, it was raining, I'm unmotivated, and just want to snuggle with a good book)

in #walkwithme7 years ago

There were, however, spectacular outdoor walks from 200 Steemians in the last day!

#WalkWithMe is growing, and going so good. There are a lot of people taking us on some pretty epic tours of their towns, villages and in raw nature all across the world. Thank you everyone and keep em coming.

A New Orchid

Brendan got it for me. The orchid I was growing, grew its flower stem...and then there was a major accident with the Christmas tree which fell onto the old orchid and the flower stem snapped before it even had a chance to bloom. The foliage was still okay though, so I have to wait until next year for that one to bloom again. It's nice that he got me another plant with flowers already grown hahaha! It doesn't hurt so much anymore.

Beautiful Art

This just came in the mail for me as well. My friend in Ontario creates art with broken pieces of glass that she finds. I saw the dragonfly when she posted it on her art page and absolutely fell in love. Dragonflies are very special animals to me. Metamorphosis, transcendence.

I have to get it under better light one day, to show you all the different colours which are in this glass, but like I said, I was one lazy woman today and couldn't even be bothered to move the art to a brighter room and capture that. One day, one day...

Part of a painting that Brendan did for me many years ago now, striking colours, sorry too lazy to zoom out hahaahahahaa :) Another day...another day...

Something I Wasn't Too Lazy For

Bread products! Mmmmm too lazy to make buns, and I was all out (which is not allowed to happen because I live off of buns) so cheddar & parmesan biscuits it was! 20 minutes later, bread crisis averted.

A Look Out the Windows

The Puddle Barometer is not very full. Raining but not torrential downpour.

I hope you enjoyed this #WalkWithMe. Here are some outstanding walks with other Steemians who got out there in the world, and took us with them.

See life through their eyes...

You are allowed to take a rest! You always do so much and you still baked even when unmotivated! (PS, when you are motivated, can I has that biscuit recipe? They sound so good)
The problem with being a homesteader/ mom/self employed/etc. is you get no defined time off. You deserve time off! I hope you found a good book and curled up with it. :)

Hey @lyndsaybowes you really are a master baker!! I was going to ask for the recipe but I see you've already linked it .. me and those biscuits have a date with destiny ;) I really enjoyed a glimpse at your lazy day .. pretty much the same as mine today if I'm honest, I just can't be arsed lol

Loved the dragonfly art .. I have a fiend who has started making stained glass windows and she is equally amazing .. I will have to add a couple of pics when I comment next .. have to find them online first. Enjoy your day/night? my friend

Thanks PF! I can't wait to hear about how you liked the biscuits! Seems like a good ol English boy like you would devour em up easily hehehe!!

Also, I hope you can find those stained glass windows! I love stained glass, what a talented friend you have!

Rainy lazy days are important! Such a blessing to the soul to slow down...I love that you took the time to find the beauty to share in your home :)

@lyndsaybowes, Pretty stunning #walkwithme post sharing.
Yep....Orchid flowers giving me most attractive and it's beauty bringing me long distance. I have some pictures of orchid flowers variation taken from my friends flower garden. Probably I'll post them.
Pretty awesome dragonfly art received from your friend. Sure....It's glorious production of hand made. Absolutely art is a passion and best talent work. Artists can be showing other peoples feelings and effects nicely. They was gorgeous peoples around the world.
mmmmmmmm.........some biscuit product made me real hungry and feel tongue to tasty. :0) I most like it .
Nice photo captures provided finally taken under rain. Lot of foggy condition indeed. Nice #walkwithme introduced. I'll check it later.

What a beautiful day you spent, what a beautiful orchid your husband gives you, a nice detail on your part, as it is always a pleasure to walk with you always your photos are spectacular

The biscuits look really good, Lyndsay! I can taste them now! lol I imagine that the dragonfly art is made of iridescent glass so the colours must be stunning in the sunlight...

2 cups flour
1 T sugar (optional)
1 T baking soda

1/2 cup lard

  • Blend together until it feels like sand

  • Add in 3/4 cup of milk and I put 1 cup of cheese but you could do more or less or none hehehe

  • Knead 10 times, lightly floured surface, roll the dough and cut

  • Oven 400 celsius, bake for 12-14 minutes

Wow! Thank you my. I hope i make them as delectably as you do.

You mustn’t be so hard on yourself @lyndsaybowes Lifting a camera to take a few pics to create a ‘walkwithme’ blog and going from room to room to give us a glimpse of some very interesting things would have used up a lot of energy especially as you were unmotivated to do so. You must love your fellow steemians very much to go to all that effort just for us. 😊 Please tell me you curled up with a good book whilst munching on those delicious savoury biscuits? 😋

HAHA! I like your style @trudeehunter, thanks for going easy on me :) I did get a couple hundred pages read with I won't say how many biscuits lolololol :) :)

Well, I'm very pleased to hear that @lyndsaybowes As long as you didn't eat as many biscuits as the pages you read. (lol) They were really, really, tiny biscuit's weren't they? You used a macro lens to take those pics. Right?
