From Spain with love

The postlady, who shares my thrills and delight each time she comes carrying gifts from friends
surprised me with a wonderful parcel from Spain.  Carmen - http://lamaisoncarmen.blogspot.com/.
Carmen,  a visit to your beautiful, inspiring blog is a privilege to be grateful for. Getting gifts is an unexcpected bonus.  THANK YOU!!!




I have to show you what this exquisite dress looks from the back.  A perfect finish.  The knitted top is beautiful and so is the matching bonnet. Very delicate lace bordered blue linen, a baby bottle and a silver pacifier, which will be wonderful for the nursary I have in mind.



The list of my followers is growing.  A warm welcome to Lucille, who doesn't have a blog yet.  I am trying to convince her to enter this wonderful world.

Tomorrow is Lag- Baomer Day.  Tonight,  all around us are bonfires and the smell of smoke.  It's a wonderful event for our young children, who for weeks have been collecting wood for the bonfires.
The view of bonfires scattered around for miles, is stunning if you are up on the roof of a tall building.

Blessings to all my friends and a good night
