Home Sweet Home

I am grateful on this day, 
Monday 6th December 2010,
for my 'home sweet home'...
where my love always 
makes sure the
'home fire' is burning bright ...
keeping our toes toastie
melting our 'yeti boots'!

You provided us with a "two for" today. Both are moving and deeply meaningful. Bellini's is a favorite of mine.

Is this the same Bellini that made the canopy in St. Peter's Basilica?

You have a beautiful home and hearth and it is made all the more so by the love and gratitude that resides within. The outside photo looks like a Christmas card, so lovely, and your pup is incredibly sweet. Your photo of the virgin is magnificent, rich and interesting. I love the name, "Madonna of the Small Trees".
xo,

What a beautiful sweet cottage you have! And all that snow, wow. It looks like a real Winter Wonderland. And that cute dog who obviously couldn't resist the white magic...

By way of haiku navigate a place called home the 'heart' gathering... On the subject of home and the insecurity of having no solid ground to tread on, that's where I am finding myself at present as I'm in the throws of purchasing a new home and going through a very sticky patch with the legalities of it all.  It's going at a snail's pace and I'
