Didn't the weekend go quickly!
We had some lovely sunshine with blue skies
image from here
but oh my...
also a very heavy early morning frost
which made the roads and pavements very white and slippery!
During last week many parts of the UK had flooding!
Some parts had snow.
Well it is January ... we have to be prepared!
~ Wherever you live stay warm and safe ~
(If you are in the southern hemisphere, I hope your weather is not too hot)
Eddie and I enjoyed a quiet weekend, and managed to get a few household bits and pieces done.
I think seeing the sunshine gave us extra energy and we soon got through everything.
Mind you, perhaps it was the tea and coffee break we enjoyed, that gave us an added spurt!
But there again it could have had something to do with the -
Leek and Chorizo Frittata
it's delicious 😋
you can see the recipe here
... and finally sharing these words from Dale Carnegie
(as seen on Life is Good blog)
You have it easily in your power to increase the sum total
of this world's happiness now. How?
By giving a few words of sincere appreciation
to someone who is lonely or discouraged.
Perhaps you will forget tomorrow the kind words you say today,
but the recipient may cherish them over a lifetime.
~~ xx ~~
I hope you enjoyed your weekend.
May the coming new week be a good one for you.
All the best Jan
Carnegie's words of wisdom are priceless. But so is that weekend weather you got.
ReplyDeleteHere in Holland we had snow last Friday it is verry cold…it was good my weekend glad yours was also fine 🍀 have a wonderful week love from me ❤️ And sleep well….🐾
ReplyDeleteMy weekend began with wind and ended in freezing rain.
ReplyDeleteLovely post! Thanks also for the information on wooden spoons.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry about the flooding.
ReplyDeleteThe Leek and Chorizo Frittata looks wonderful. And I like the quote - so true.
ReplyDeleteYes, the weekend flew by much too fast!!!

January weather is often capricious. Great words from Dale Carnegie - Thank you for your always interesting blogs. Have a good week!
ReplyDelete...every day seems to fly by!
ReplyDeleteMe alegra que lo pasaran bien. Besos.
ReplyDeleteA sunny weekend is just so full of joy! After our horrific weather since Christmas we finally have sunny and drier days - it is lovely. I spent the last couple days working in the garden which I couldn't do because it was so incredibly wet. The leek and chorizo fritata sounds delicious.
ReplyDeleteHere we've seen snow off and on.
ReplyDeleteEspero que hayan pasado un buen fin de semana. Les mando un beso.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your week.
ReplyDeleteCoffee is on and stay safe
Anche qui in Italia in questi giorni sta facendo molto freddo e ha nevicato anche in pianura.
ReplyDeleteA me piace la neve ma comprendo bene che soprattutto in città causa dei disagi
We had ice and freezing fog in Yorkshire, so much coffee drinking was done by us too! Have a lovely week Jan & Eddie xx
ReplyDeleteQue lindo céu e desejo ótima semana! Que todos os dias, sejam como forem, tenham a alegria interior.
ReplyDeleteLinda tua fritada! Apetitosa! beijos, chica
Beautiful sky and clouds. So bright and lovely
ReplyDeleteThe weekends always fly by. We saw some blue skies but it was bitterly cold. We had a couple of drives out into North Yorkshire where there was a hoar frost, so pretty but too cold for me.
ReplyDeleteThings are cold but not freezing here in Texas. 58-60*degrees for the highs.
ReplyDeleteMissing getting my gardening started.

Pretty sky photo! The weekend did fly by. I just looked outside and we are having some wet snow. The frittata looks yummy! I like that quote, wise words. Take care, have a wonderful week!
ReplyDeleteWe're in for an every other day snow to rain or rain to snow storm this week.
ReplyDeleteSo pretty.

The Carnegie quote is an inspiration. Thanks!
ReplyDeletethe frittata looks really good. my meal service "home chef" is offering breakfast options now. frittatas and quiche, both are delicious!! the weekend was fun filled, cold, rainey and the sun was nowhere to be found!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful sky. I've been wanting to try leeks but no =ne of the stores I shop at have them.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you had a productive weekend. And it certainly is nice to see some blue sky! (Wish we would!)
ReplyDeletesorry to hear about the flooding, we have some predicted bad storms coming up this week, nice that you had some clear skies and sunshine for some of it, that always lifts my spirits and I get more done around the house :)
ReplyDeleteWe love frittatas! Everyone has been complaining about the price of eggs recently but we found a store that is selling them at a reasonable price. The avian flu epidemic affecting chickens seems to be lingering longer than usual this time around.
