Dreaming of Hollyhocks surrounding my church studio, just as the snow and ice storm is scheduled to arrive.
You've seen this picture before, and it's equally beautiful, but today I'm not in a snow mood, I'm in a Hollyhock mood. Summertime means: the sweet smell of grass, dirt in my fingernails, the sun on my face, frolicking amongst the wild flowers, twirling my new dress from Anthropologie whilst engaging in tomfollery on the open prairie.
Had you going didn't I?
For now, I'll just pour a cup of hot chocolate, turn on the fireplace, and snuggle with my favorite blanket. If I feel brave, I'll put on my boots and head over to my snow covered studio. It's always peaceful in there.
Thoughts and prayers for the people of Haiti,
Ele

I'm in the mood for some summer flowers myself! Lots of rain here in So. California and although I love the rain, I'm ready for some sun.
Have a wonderful and blessed weekend!

No snow here... Yet, it has been raining a lot.. Love the winter but, I am ready for some spring too.. Love your pictures and your beautiful home. It looks great in both seasons.. God Bless.
Hi, Ele! How pretty! I planted Hollyhock seeds last year and hope they bloom this year. Someone named Holly should have Hollyhocks- dontcha think? ☺ ♥
I confess I'm NEVER in the mood for ANYTHING summer - except the Autumn that FOLLOWS. But those Hollyhocks ARE beautiful, Ele! Still, I'm DROOLING over the SNOWY view of your beautiful building. I can dig up some boots - maybe you will let me sit there WITH you if I'm quiet? LOVE YOU!
Your church is lovely no matter what the weather. It's a beauty.....just like you!

You're right! I'm ready to give winter the boot and demand that the hollyhocks show their pretty faces. It won't be too long now though and we'll see their lovely blooms all summer. :)
I hear ya! I'm done with winter and ready for some warmer weather. Sigh - guess we still have a ways to go for that dream to become a reality!
