Simple pleasures

Outside, despite the initial clear pink and blue skies with the sunrise, a soft mist has descended, fading edges and flattening detail. Trees have become ghostly silhouettes and the sky a washed out pale grey as the mist drifts around, filling the space with a translucent glaze.

The air has a definite sharp nip to it but it has a fresh spring feel to it ... and the birds seem to agree, the garden is full of bird song - lovely.

Inside, I am procrastinating whilst drinking coffee - not a bad way to start the morning. The air is filled with the scent of the hyacinths. The aroma seems to travel around the room - not filling it with the heady perfume like lilies do - more of a gentle ribbon of sweet scent drifting around filling the space with fragrance.

Enough now, coffee done, things to do, people to meet up with, places to go - have a lovely Wednesday xx
