Don’t complain about a rainy day.
I grabbed my camera and tried to capture the gloominess.
Instead …
I discovered beauty.
There is beauty in every day. Even in Winter.
Although I have to admit that this little splash of color made my heart jump. I discovered very early blooms on the wild strawberries in my patio garden. Do they really think it’s Spring yet?
While inside …
Home baked bread …
and a cup of hot tea bring comfort on a wintery day.
While anticipating…
the next meal.

Beautiful photos. You've done really well pulling beauty out of the gloom.
I love your black and whites!
Isn't it funny that so early in winter we're already looking forward to spring? I'm watching the maple tree buds... love how they're there in the bitter cold, just waiting for their sap to run again.
It's raining heavily here this morning, Jientje, but the birds are singing!
Gorgeous! I enjoy seeing your winter colors and still enjoying those boat photos!! Taking a closer look at you tea cup and now I am noticing I can see all the little bits and herbs in the tea bag... too cool!! Hope your weekend is amazing!
Love the foggy boat shots.
Absolutely stunning. Wow!
The first set of pictures remind me of a scene out of Chocolat (as I envisioned it while I read it)
These are absolutely beautiful!
I hate this weather I prefer the hot cup of tea, lol !
You sure did discover beauty! The misty shots are so wonderful!
You took my breath away this week. Love all your images, J!!
i was trying to pick a favorite but wow. i like the composition of the second one. i love the tea shot and the spoons ... and the life preserver and ...
Love the misty, rainy photos ... and all the others, equally! Really like the cluster of spoons!
Actually the gloominess of the day gave your captures a soft touch. Sorry I have not been on lately. I have alot of catching up to do. Have a great day

Lovely pictures. The warm bread and hot tea are calling me. Maybe I'll do some baking. Yum!
Guilty, I always complain of rain. :( I don't like the stuff. HOwever, I love your bread!! You always have the best looking breads!
I love the pic of the hot tea. You can see so many things in the tea bag. What kind of tea is that? It looks like there are flower petals in the bag.
Love, love, love the foggy photos....the mood is wonderful in them!
A good eye can find beauty almost anywhere, and you have one of the best.
You definitely captured the beauty in the moody. Looks like many of our days in central California. I just love your pictorials and captions. They paint GREAT STORIES!
You captures the gloominess and managed to make it look mysterious and beautiful.
Beautiful...it is starting our rainy here and I was just contemplating what to photograph, we'll see what today brings!
Your pictures are the best!! I love the strawberry bloom and the bread (of course). They are just beautiful!!!!
Hugs,
