Romance.
It can mean a language, a literary form, a movement in art or music, an attitude, a love affair, diamonds and foreign travel....
or some paper bags with holes in and a candle in a jam jar inside, with a few pots of daisies!
I'm easily pleased....
Looking at 'romantic' as something with no purpose other than to delight the senses, here are a few romantic things I am enjoying this June....
Our mini-meadow - simply lawn left to grow.
..in the magical slanting light just before dusk.
A beautiful (bought) loaf of sourdough bread which took 3 days to make and tastes wonderful.
Don't you think that romantic? That someone still goes to all that trouble to make such bread?
Fairy like aquilegia....
And a yellow gate with buttercups and white foxgloves....
What does the word romance mean to you?
(PS The blind worked again and I got 8 hours sleep last night. Bliss!)
