Birds and Snow

I have a few more winter vignettes from the kitchen.

The cardinal salt and pepper shakers were a Christmas gift and I think they are so cute.


I always enjoy using my late 1800s antique snowman. He's actually a replica, but very authentic-looking made from cotton and decorated with peppercorns and dried plant material.


The little cardinal basket has hot cocoa packets ready for whomever wants to warm-up with a cup and this is definitely the weather for it. Our snowflakes began falling just after lunchtime and by late afternoon travel was very hazardous. We have at least six inches and the white stuff is predicted to fall throughout the night leaving us with nearly a foot. We will see how this all shakes out! We prepared for our feathered friends, though, by topping-off the feeders and installing a fresh suet cake.



If your weather matches mine, I hope you'll 
be safe, stay warm and bird watch! 
Happy weekend!
