Saturday shoes ...and the rest of the give a way!


last Saturday, we were living in one big slushy here in the PacNWest. the slush is 
gone.  for the past couple days it has been cold and crispy clear!
 a crispy clear forecast =  grey flannel boots! 
no fancy schmacy here. 
i found them two years ago, HALF PRICE, at a local sporting goods store.

this morning, i decided to try  a new breakfast!
i had never eaten a broiled grapefruit! 
after seeing photographs of this take on the morning treat on 
Pinterest and various blogs, it was due time for me to go for it! i dusted 
it with some brown sugar and popped it in the oven!


you might be thinking...Lynne, this is pretty simple. why haven't you tried this before?  .
here is the answer.


 the inspiration from blogging is a daily reminder to do and try things that i have never tried before. 


since this was spur of the moment, i didn't have a maraschino cherry on hand.
( grapefruit is usually photographed with a maraschino cherry in the center.)
the walnuts were a perfect substitute!  


you may have noticed the Somerset Life bookazine next to my breakfast.
( i moved it out of my place setting immediately after the photograph.) 
in my post yesterday, i mentioned  that i found something special at Barnes and Noble. 
i also mentioned that i drew a second name
on glassybaby give a way day. i am so very excited to give a copy of this
 beautiful publication 
to Linda 

Linda...please email your address to me!

(oh!...the broiled grapefruit with walnuts was YUMMY! 
it was worth the 50 +  wait!)

thank you all for your daily inspiration 
and for lifting me at sunrise!

have a wonderful weekend!

  4. Oh Lynne thankyou I am so excited! I have often seen this magazine in Blogland and would love to look inside one. Now I am getting my very own!!! You are so generous.

    I have been away from the computer for a few days, so I missed your post! I have had grilled grapefruit it is delicious. I like the sound of walnuts on it. I like your flannel boots, but then I am a practical sort of girl.

    Thankyou for your kind comments on my latest post. I will e-mail my address. Have a great week, with much love, Linda x
