Sonja..........

I have not posted for a bit. Life keeps interrupting.
I lost a dear friend on Monday. Her death came unexpectedly, and has thrown us over the abyss. She was young, beautiful, intelligent and loved life! She had exquisite taste and had an eye for decorating. She strived for excellence. She was a much loved educator, and will be sadly missed by many. 
Our common bond was a passion for cooking, reading cookbooks, recipes....
Sonja I do hope you are at peace....


Her brother said to me...life carries on, and yes it does whether we are ready for it or not.

I posted this pretty pair of earrings in my Etsy shop this morning. They are made with a gorgeous vintage glass saucer shaped bead, blue and white speckled, paired with pretty pastel green matt frosted glass beads. Fun loving and full of life!!

I am quite sure that Sonja is most grateful for your kinds words Pegg. A remembrance of the very essence of who she had been in her lifetime.
Yes life goes on, it goes on the in the manner that we give it attention. Life passes by so quickly, so give life attention, live it, be a part of life, live it to the fullest each and everyday.
