12 | 28 ... 1/28

Saturdays often include visiting the Seaport Market and cooking dinner while listening to Vinyl Tap - listening to that show makes me feel like I'm living in a different time and place. I did visit the market but Saturday night I went out to a Supper Club with friends. An exciting and relaxing Saturday all around. One of the reasons I create 12 | 28 is to inspire myself to take photos. I hadn't taken a photo since December 30. So terrible! And, also to try to look at things and life from a different perspective. Because it was a Saturday, I spent some time drinking coffee and puttering around the house taking notice of our living space.

There's quite a bit of colour and interesting toys on various shelves! I still remember the day my mom brought me home the smurf on the far right when I was in elementary school. I have a Papa Smurf too!

Little collections find their way onto window sills and shelves.

A visit to the Halifax Seaport Market. Lots of people, food and products.

Some of my favourite market products...fresh flowers, beach glass jewelry & artwork and chocolate bar soap.

Fresh and cheerful market flowers.

Neighbourhood Supper Club at Local Jo. The folks at Young and Dublin (Natalie & Virgil) cooked and served flavourful Mexican soup, tacos, re-fried beans and rice. YUM. Follow Young & Dublin on facebook for updates - they had Korean and Mexican open air dinners in their backyard last summer. I know, so good!!

Delicious desserts created at Local Jo. Our group tried coconut cheesecake, pecan pie and coconut cream pie.

Once again, my love of beach glass. Picking beach glass (and beautiful pebbles) at home in Cape Breton is one of my favourite early morning activities.

Winter at our house means sweaters, scarves, leg warmers and cozy slippers for guests.

A reminder to go skating at the oval...
