Dearest bug,
ReplyDeleteThis is a beautiful post. I love reading it. It stirs my imagination and sets my day on an uplifting note. And one of these days, I know I'm just being silly, I want to be friend to that rabbit, the bear and the owl.
:)

Bonjour Anita. Magique, poetique et et captivant, tout a la fois, et comme toujours... Bravo. I have not left a message for a while, but have been following your blog. I see your comments on Vicki Archer's blog too :-) I hope all is well in your beautiful life... Veronique (French Girl in Seattle)
ReplyDeleteAlways fabulous Anita. We loved the first one and the owl and the birds but really they were all amazing. Magical! Have a super Saturday.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes Molly
A perfect, wonderful inspiration to start the weekend, merci!! xxoo Anne
ReplyDeleteListening to that beautiful music and reading your post was a wonderful way to start my Saturday!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Anita~
GORGEOUS ANITA, GORGEOUS!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThe reds, purples, blues, greens with their textures are magnificent!
Always when I first view your new post I let out little utterances of wow, ooh, aaahs each time! THAT IS WHAT I LOVE ABOUT YOUR WORK; the stunned or amazed factor!
Thank you for this loving adventure. I so enjoy it.
Gorgeous, Anita! And I always love to hear you play......magical! ~ Sarah
ReplyDeleteGreetings, Anita ~
ReplyDeleteAnother divine post full of fantasy, imagination and beauty, as only you can create. I love how you tell your stories. Thanks so much for all the inspirations. Have a wonderful weekend!
Cheers,

This morning I took Napoleon for a walk. The sun was shining and, as can be relied upon, the little puggle was excited just to be a part of it all!
ReplyDeleteWe happened upon some flowers in the garden that were blooming in a brilliant profusion of color, in spite of the hoary pull of Winter's trance. At that moment, I understood Napoleon.

It all makes sense darling !!!...what a post !!!.....love it !! love you...xxx...happy weekend...xxx...
ReplyDeleteHello Anita...the Ralph Waldo Emerson quote you have here is my absolute FAVOURITE...such very true words.

Hello Anita:
ReplyDeleteWhat a delight for all the senses this post is....if only one could sniff the perfume too!!!
There is so much to thrill the senses in our world but, sadly, we are all too often too preoccupied with our everyday concerns to really appreciate it all. It is a timely reminder for us all to, at least once in a while, stand still and listen to the voices of our senses as they uplift our soul.
Yes dearest, that quote is great! This is what i need to do to heal ... And your sensual post is so full of inspiration Anita, so carefully you put it all together. Enjoy a sweet and cozy sunday! xox

ReplyDeleteWonderful Anita!
It's interesting as we often go through life without really FEELING and using all that we have. I believe if we slowed down and listened, and better utilized our senses, we would feel better about ourselves and even make better choices.
Enjoy your weekend!
xx
Aawh...lovely new post. You have so many beautiful artistic finds... I can come back time and again, to see the intricate composition. xoxo, M
ReplyDeleteBeautiful reminder to use our senses, they offer so much insight to everything around us. Equally beautiful music .. loved the Little Fountain...xo C. (HHL)
ReplyDeleteDearest Anita,
ReplyDeleteYou truly lift my spirits and give me hope, Your posts are alive with love, Kindness, wonder.

Precious Anita...to the owl that hoots out my window most dawns....thank you for yet another reminder of the elegant and fragile messages in life that somehow remain the strongest....love prevails in art
ReplyDeleteSuch a treat to view all the lovely images you put together here...
ReplyDeleteThese photos are all so intense, Anita. Simply amazing. Sometimes I feel as though I can't 'take it all in' at once. You know? I want to savor every moment and to be thankful for every little breath I take, not just go traipsing along with my head down not looking for the glorious in every thing. The is beauty in the minutest detail of a leaf or a puff of cloud in the sky. All miracles from the One who made them. It is all too mind boggling at times...but here we are given the ability to drink it all in with all of our senses.
ReplyDeleteLike your quote from Emerson says...what matters most is what lies within us in order for us to enjoy what lies outside of us. Thank you for sharing these thoughts and intense photos.
hugs from
Teresa

Thank you for visiting and commenting

I love your posts-so beautiful and thought provoking!
ReplyDeleteOh Anita Sweetie...
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful share this evening. I so enjoyed my visit. I have been away for awhile, but hope to get back to posting in the next day or so.
The colors, scents, the textures and love shared were so divine. I cannot begin to tell you the wonderful feelings you gave to my heart. Thank you my precious friend.
Hope you and Ruben are well. I think of you often, and have truly missed my blogging friends. Many hugs and much love, Sherry

My dear Anita,
ReplyDeleteJust what I needed today... Inspiration, beauty, soft harp music and a very wise quote... one of my favorites.
Tell Ruben I will introduce him to this rabbit, bear and owl, Bebe knows them. I am sure she would be delighted to do so.
Merci my dear friend,
Penny
lovely my dear...
ReplyDeleteimagery...words...

OHHHHHHH!
ReplyDeletewOnDeRfuL thoughts and images to delight the senses...
what a TREAT, this visit here.
~ Violet
Hello Anita,
ReplyDeleteOh those images are so colorful! Aren't all of the senses amazing? I can't imagine life without them...the sights, sounds, smells, tastes...etc.
I hope you have a lovely week!!!
Heidi
Oh well, you know me. Anything that opens with a rabbit has to be good.
ReplyDeleteAnd now you've put a new version of 'All Along the Watchtower' in my head.
It's all your fault, Anita!
All along the Tea Tower.
(To the tune of
All along the Watchtower)
"There must be some way to get out of here,"
said the Rabbit to the Bear.
'There's too much ice and snow
and an owl in my hair.
All those birds, they drink my tea,
ate up my chocolate pear!"
The girl looked puzzled,
and turned to the bear...
"No reason to get excited!"
the bear kindly spoke,
"There are many things to laugh at,
the owl just told a joke.
But you and I are hungry now.
Can't put snow on our plate.
Let us get moving,
or for tea we'll be late!"
(Break for Jimi's guitar solo...)
All around the piano
Ballerinas filled the pot
Mermaids walking to and fro.
The tea was nice and hot.
Outside in the cold distance,
the man and owl did run
They could hear teacups rattling,
didn't want to be late for the fun.
Yeah!
(Big guitar finish. Thank you Jimi.)
I deliberately left this post until I could read it on a relaxed Sunday morning in bed. Inspiring, I am now ready to ace the day. Wonderful, thank you Anita. Always a treasure.

I really love the way you express yourself. You give me energy!
ReplyDeleteOnce again, you have taken me away. Listening to you play is a blessing unto itself, but to do that while looking at such stunning images truly leaves me breathless! Thank you, as always!

Dear Anita,
ReplyDeleteThank you for the lovely start to my week, beautiful post, images, and quotes. The harp music was so gentle and takes you way away to a dreamy place. Was that you playing the gorgeous music?
Do hope you are having a wonderful Sunday and wishing you a great week ahead.
Hugs
Carolyn
Hello Anita,
ReplyDeleteYour images have again captivated and kept me spellbound... You have a wonderful eye for beauty... in so many ways... xv
Many thanks for visiting me today dear Anita.
ReplyDeleteWould really love to see and hear you playing the harp, it is such a beautiful instrument.
Enjoy your Sunday
hugs
Carolyn
Another magical post Anita. So glad I am able to SEE it, HEAR it, be TOUCHED by it, and enjoy your excellent TASTE in music and art, I can almost SMELL the sweet perfume of kindness and love that is a big part of who you are. MY senses have been stimulated and once again I say THANKS!!!
ReplyDeleteAnother vibrant post Anita and I really like those chocolate covered pears with p-nuts.
ReplyDeleteSo what are your plans for Thanksgiving although I'm sure it involves yourself making a homemade meal for this holiday, and I have just posted a fresh post from Jean today so let me know what you think about that recipe.
I will be posting this Wednesday five Amish style recipes instead of only my usual one so maybe you can pick something from those and make it at some point.
After this week of posts I will be on a "Thanksgiving break" for one week and will return on Nov 26, I will post an announcement on Nov 18 regarding the future of my blog and the changes that will be coming for the new year. Richard
Good morning dear Anita...thank you for your beautiful words re our little Paris...you know I was snuggling up into 'her' new quilt last night and it was so cozy!
ReplyDeleteI have 'breathed' in Pirates...and breating out now. I have thoroughly enjoyed this show...I have only been in 3 but this was the most beautiful cast...even the Director said it has been one of the best for her...I have learnt to much here...now I want to keep singing! I totally agree with you...all adults should try to get on to the stage...there is so much to learn...
I wish you a beautiful week Anita...and thank you so much for your loving support...Love Dzintra xo
oh dearie, this is as magical as can be. Like the child, it is good to dream!grin
ReplyDeletelisten.... I am praying for your first show. I am anxious to know how you like it and how people will receive your art. I have a strong feeling that this is just the beginning for you....
love you...
The beauty of words, images and music that you have created here rekindles my senses, imagination and optimism, my dear friend. Each of the senses is a miracle to me. Presence of mind through holding the senses in awareness changes our relationship to the world “out there” and to our inner world as well. It's all makes sense, indeed. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteI hope your Monday is off to a wonderful start!
My precious friend, this is just stunning in every way...there is the multi-sensory journey...we are on it every day, but how many of us take the time to breathe it all in...
ReplyDeleteYou are remarkable...and I see darling sister Sylvia...both of you have the God-given gift of stopping us in our tracks, and helping us LIVE this Divine experience...gorgeous, chere amie...
And how magical is "The Little Fountain"??
Have you been playing today??
I miss you so, but I know you are making your dreams happen....it really is time to SOAR!!
Love you!!!!!
- Irina
You are just so inspiring. You always have the most breathtaking photos with the most amazing message. That last quote speaks volumes!! Oh, my, you always seem to fail to provide me with the right message each time!! xo
ReplyDeleteEverything is ok with me...it is not my day i think.,.....i try and do my best to make it my day i promise you my dear friend !!...love love from me...xxx..
ReplyDeleteOh Anita, Yes Yes (As the Police sing when the Major comes)...the theatre truly is a life changing experience....I am learning so much and meeting wonderful people.

ReplyDeleteI am at home today..it is a holiday!!! Remembrance day was yesterday. I plan to do some creating today...can't wait.
What will your week bring my friend? Hugs as you begin it! xox
Here comes another silly friend just like Mr. Ruben, I loved the moment where I saw the bear and rabbit and owl. I wanted that moment never to end. Breath is all in and keep it in. So it sinks deep into your heart, runs wild in your imagination and keeps your heart beating and your mind alert to the tracks we've left behind and the tracks we need to follow.
ReplyDeleteHow am I? A bit dizzy this morning! No need to fret, Len sent me into the dizzy phase because he took my car keys to work and I have no way to get to work. I've called three people and nobody is awake! Oh me, oh my, what should a girl with a curl do? My curls are a bit twisted this morning. Perhaps I should just play hooky and call it a day! I have a fear of taxi drivers! No kidding! I'm only been in taxi's in Europe, that must have been what planted that deep rooted fear in me.
Len and I just had a wonderful weekend together. We stayed in bed late, didn't clean up the house at all or do any pressing errands. Played with the dogs and watched some t.v. and went to a couple of craft shows. It was easy going and much needed. Rarely do we have two days off in a row anymore.
What will you be doing my dear for Thanksgiving this year? We will be at Kara's. Shaun's first surgery is this Thursday. I'll be going to Seattle with Kara to support her. Thanks for your prayers!
My darling friend
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your wonderful advice
I am going to do that .
You know what I find really really amazing
How you know to listen and read and combine ......
by little bits of information
You really SEE me
Anita You touch my heart and soul .
Thank you Thank you Thank you and God bless you !
oh THANK YOU!!! oh THANK YOU!
ReplyDeleteAnita, hi! Oh you made my day! I was so worried about my post that I got a lowsy-night's sleep. I'm ok now and I don't have a ton planned for today so I can take a nap later.
YOU ARE SO NICE TO ME! thank you!
In your post I love the long flowing, chiffon, turquoise dress and the red flames of lipstick or paint on the neck and up on that woman with the eccentric makeup. Those two are so mesmerizing! That's the word: Your post's are MESMERIZING!!!
how goes it...
ReplyDeletebeautiful my
creative queen!

Hello dear one,
ReplyDeleteI was Christmas shopping all weekend, and wanted to come over and visit first thing this morning. That wise old owl knows how to get out, doesn't he? I just love the rabbit and the bear, and all the colors on here. I am so thankful for the five senses, and try to remember I am blessed with them. The red polka dot boots are soooo cute, and I am always amazed at the beautiful pictures you find for your stories. Breathe it all in. Love it all out. This is my favorite, and such a passionate quote. LOVE always exudes out of your posts each and every time I read them. Have a wonderful week, you deserve it so much.

''the five senses serve as portal for the body mind and spirit to release the muses from our imaginations''
ReplyDeleteOne of the most beautiful things I 've read...Thanks you Anita
I agree, I AGREE with Roselie!! :))
ReplyDeleteDearest, did you love that mousie?? Or Tea RRRRRatttie? :)
That one was a wink to you and Penny! ;)
Love you, dear friend...off to e-mail!
BISOUS,
- Irina
Oh shame on me, I must be missing much, how fun, the bear, the owl, and rabbit..I should introduce myself I suppose.. but lil miss proscastinator is what I should be called! Lovely, inspiring post Anita, enjoy your week. xoxox Christel
ReplyDeleteInspiring, beautiful, captivating, amazing, wonderful ....post. All the things you are, my friend.
ReplyDeleteI will call soon. Honest.
It's been absolutely insane here, as you know.
This just made my night.
Love you!! xoxox
Lovely as usual, Anita, and the music is perfect. For the first time I cannot seem to sense the words penetrating beyond surface to the hidden crevices of my heart as they typically do, but it might have something to do with being preoccupied with finding something I've lost. ;)
ReplyDeleteYou do know what this means, don't you? I have to come back and read it again...and perhaps again. :)
Thank you, my friend.
XOXO's,
Marcia
Anita! You crack me up! How did your writing session go? Hopefully, you are pleased with it.
ReplyDeleteI am so happy about the response to my full body post, today. I was so nervous about it I couldn't sleep last night. I had a long winter's nap and I feel on mark again.
Have a fabulous night's rest and go full speed ahead tomorrow - otay?
Thanks for being so upbeat and fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hello dear Anita
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Blog as always!
Have a lovely day today dear.
Love and a big hug
Mapi
Hello lovely Anita. Thank you for visiting the shop, glad you liked the paella. ;)
ReplyDeleteAs soon as I read your comment I rushed over to let you know that your message is NOT vague, my friend. It is my mind and my heart that was wondering off and a bit heavier than usual so although your message is clear, I was not able to apply it in a more personal way as I usually do. Hope that makes a little more sense. It's like I had blockers up. Today; however, I am beginning to see some clarity with all five senses in check instead of out of control. teehee
Have a gorgeous day.
XOXO's,
Marcia
First off for this Tuesday morning...I NEED those rain boots...spotted ones to make my recess duty in the rain a delight!!!
ReplyDeleteYOU are in a SHOW...YAHOOOOOO! I am over the moon excited for you sweet one...please please take lots of photos with that new camera of yours....I soooo wish I could come! It will be such a success. You work hard this week...the rewards are to follow very soon. xoxoxo
Dearest Anita, thank you for your kind visit! I can see your walkway looking very pretty with these lights in bags! Glad you enjoy your week. I do too, in some ways, but i just slowly recover from the loss of our cat. It may sound pathetic, i know, but i was so connected to this little and very loving being that my heart needs time to heal. Time helps, i know this! Stay warm, ozy and creative - these marvellous pix here bring me joy! xox
ReplyDeleteI loved this post. The images and colours are fantastic. Really pretty. Well done!

Hello dearest Anita!!!!!
ReplyDeleteHow are you?
LOVE the red coat in the photo and the owl is magnificent!!!! We have an owl that lives in the woods by our house. He is SO cool!!!! We have named him Henry.
My parents are arriving for Thanksgiving next week. Do you have plans or are you traveling for the holiday?
I can't believe how quickly time has passed this year!!!!!
I am so grateful for the amazing friends, like you, that I have had the pleasure of meeting through being a blogger.
I have news!!!! I'm a fashion stylist!!!!! A grade school friend contacted me asking if I'd help her build a new wardrobe and put together a Lookbook of outfits for her. I'm so excited!!!! Then another friend saw my FB post about fashion styling & asked me about it. She lives in Scottsdale, AZ and asked me to do something similar for her. I can do the job long distance because so much is found & bought on line nowadays.
I hope you're having a fabulous week!!!!
We'll have to schedule a special shopping trip one day!!!!
Luv & Hugs,
Shannon :-)
Hello Anita,
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the visit!!! The first photo in this post reminds me of The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe. :)
How is your week going, my friend? I hope you have a creative week!
Heidi
What a beautiful way for me to end my day. I will now sleep very well tonight. Thank you, Anita! xo

ReplyDeleteKat
Anita! hi!
ReplyDeleteCarry out your goals, my friend! You are a very accomplished person. I see that in you in your enthusiasm and creativity. Carry on.
The girl in the top banner of this post that is wearing the red coat, reminds me of me in my younger era. Long blond locks and a trim torso. I had a blue coat in those years style nearly the same as the red. My blond hairs would fall onto the coat and drive my Dad to come at me with a lint brush often. Hmmmmm? I feel a poem coming on. thanks,seeya......
Darling Anita, it seems like I have dropped off the planet! We were gone most of October and the earlier months were insane too!
ReplyDeleteI have missed visiting so many blogs! I just love this. What beautiful images and thoughts you always gather!
I hope all is well and you are enjoying the music of life! We certainly are!!!
Dearest Anita, yes, i understand what you said about pets. My hubby says, he doesn't want one again because this has been and still is so hard. But i must say, we had cats before, and this one was the most lovely and special ever! Do you have a nice day sweet friend? I'm tired, and take it a little more slowly this week! Hugs for a gorgeous evening!
ReplyDeleteLieve Anita I am so glad the Mousecalender arrived
ReplyDeleteThe book about SAM and JULIA must be out in the USA too .
I have a favourite writer and discouvered his books are now also in english ....so I ordered one and I am so anxious ( ? ) to see how the words I so love in dutch will be translated
I have taken your advice in my heart and will do what you suggested . I let you know .
Are you okay ?
Hugs and love !
Your imagination makes Me so happy :)
ReplyDeleteYour words & photos are inspiring...truly!
ReplyDeleteI feel the calm of the chill over here with beauty like none other. For a moment Anita, I thought that is was your playing that harp, I think you need to you tube yourself palying your beautiful harp so wee can see more of who you are :)
ReplyDeleteLove the photos of The bear and Rabbit, of course all your photo selections are just so soulful and your words touch each picture with a spirit tell a story of beauty.
I am looking forward to ThanksGiving to then move right into Christmas. Anita it seams like yesterday we were drumming up a Christmas production with French threatre on our minds, and here we are another year, how sweet of a year its been teaching and showing off to us all it offered.
Keep inspiring us girl, its what carries us through until the next.
lots of love

PS. This might sound silly....I would love to see Ruben be-friend that rabbit, if anyone could it would be him

Hello there!
ReplyDeleteYour beautiful post gives me energy. The last two weeks have been incredibly stressful, but I'm pulling it together. Your post is a beautiful reminder of where to keep the sights focused. Thank you, dear friend.
Keri
Dear Anita...the first show!! Do not be discouraged...you are on the path to growing and developing as an artist! We all must pay our dues before we arrive at the point of fulfilling what we desire...Do not lose sight of your goals, more importantly your creative aspirations.... Sending you all my best wishes and hugs, N.xo
ReplyDeleteGorgeous Post, Anita! I love Ralph W Emerson quotes. Thank you for your lovely inspiration, sweet Anita :) Sending you HUGS <3

ReplyDeletei need to tell you that you are a mega talented person. i so appreciated your dedication to your blog and all of the other things you do. (hug)
i love the element of 'the unexpected' that you bring to your art!
Anita, my friend, thank you so much for stopping by the shop for a visit. Glad you liked the pastelitos de guayaba. ;) Send me a little note if you do make them for Ruben. I know he's going to love them, they are out of this world. I think I might try making them with spinach and cheese next time too, which would be more like empanadas.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your weekend, love.
XOXO's,
Marcia
What a feast for the eyes! Love that blue gown and the model is stunning! Gorgeous post(as usual). It's very sunny today and so I'm off to soak it up and get errands done. I hope you have a fabulous weekend and thank your all your lovely comments this week. Bisous:-)

Hello Anita,
ReplyDeleteHope you're having a lovely Friday, Anita! I'm looking forward to the weekend. We are going to Rob's parents' house tomorrow to celebrate Thanksgiving...then next week with my family.
Do you have any plans for the holiday? I imagine you could make a wonderful Turkey dinner. I honestly have NEVER cooked a turkey myself.
Well, I hear little M in his crib. Not sure if he's really awake or he'll go back to sleep...I better run...
Love to you!
Heidi
Anita,
ReplyDeleteThank you for your beautiful post, I know that it must take you so much time to create such an elegant thing. Your posts are always so amazing.
I have tried to visit blogs and to do all the things that I usually do, but I am fighting a cold and have lost all my steam.
Your post was medicine for my soul. Now where did I put my cough drops?
Karen
P.S. Isn't it wonderful that Sir Ruben visits your blog and admires your work? You are a very blessed girl.
ReplyDeleteKaren
No wonder there are always so many comments here Anita... you touch something in our hearts every time, and the pictures you use for your beautiful words are so incredible... I always know I will smile and breathe deeply when I visit you. Is that you playing the harp so beautifully??
ReplyDeleteohhhhh A N I T A ..... sigh....oh how wonderful it is always to find myself on your magical pages! I'm so lucky I found you, I've said that before. I will begin my day, my dearest with the utterly alchemical BEAUTY here that so touches my soul. Yes, the senses, we love to live through them.....breathe it all in, transmute it into something better, then love it all out LOL Loving it!
ReplyDeleteHello Anita,I've always loved your beautiful post and the meanings behind the pictures.

How sweet of you to stop by last night. I hope you got some good sleep. If not last night, then tonight.
Take care and have a restful Sunday...
Heidi
Ma Bella!! Good Sunday morning ma tendre amie Anita, your posts are so very uplifting and inspiring. You are on top of my blog list and will always keep that place.
ReplyDeleteI'm back to blogging, and I'm very happy about that.
Have a calm and sweet Sunday xx Anita xx
Hi Anita I just wanted to pop by and wish you and your family a very nice Thanksgiving, and I hope this one for you is both enjoyable and is filled with memories for years to come. Richard

ReplyDeleteI did not have a new piece to share so I compiled a few of my recent and old.. The gorilla was created about nine years ago, he is living in Indiana.
Wishing you a bundle of love and joy tomorrow... Happy Thanksgiving dear friend.
Bisous!
