A black cat is laying on a pink blanket, resting its face in it, and is sleeping in a very deep sleep

It’s a windy snow drift kind of Sunday morning out here on Georgian Bay.
So we’re just gonna snuggle up and stay warm!
Walter knows.

A picture of Georgian Bay with very blue skies and blue water

Open water looking towards the shore, where you can see the rocks along the shore and in the background, you can see mask from sailing boats because there is a sailing boat club right behind this rock

A small Bow rider is tethered to the dock. The boat is white with blue stripes on it.

Finally we got a sunny, and calm enough of a day to put our little bow rider, Baybe, into the bay. It was blue skies as far as we could see so it was a fun kick about. Cue the summer weather. The bay is whispering…

Four dessert size plates themed by Valentine’s Day. Each plate has a pink edge around the plate and in the centre of each plate is a caricature drawing of a woman drawn in pink‘s reds and whites, posing. Each plate has a separate pose and has expressions on them like be mine, let’s have Cosmos

Four heart shaped dessert plates one is white. One is light pink one is dark pink one is red each plate in the centre has a small heart, and it says be mine, love you more, I’m yours, love you more.

I have a love affair with dessert plates. I have collected them for years from all over the world, for different occasions & themes. I like to use them in the decor around my house. Today, Valentine’s Day plates have turned up on the plate shelf in our DR. #LifeByTheBay #PrettyThings

Scenes from my kitchen. It’s snowing outside and it’s sizzling inside. You cannot go wrong with a cast iron skillet pizza, giving it a Chicago deep dish vibe & some ‘killa crunch around the edge.

As I begin to bring in more holiday decor I’ve really come to appreciate these little wicker greywashed hallway baskets. They are so handy & versatile for quick seasonal decor. From forsythia, to tulips, to peonies to Chinese lanterns to holiday greenery, for the win! #DecorAtHome #LifeByTheBay
