Still Winter..

Well, that Brother North Wind is still out playing with King Winter. It is cold and grey and we've been having quite a few dustings of snow.



I love the way the snow decorates the trees in the woods - a dusting on the side the snow fell. It looks beautiful. This picture doesn't show that beauty clearly, but I have put it here to remind myself of the beauty.



Here, on this farm something very unique is grown. Fields of cocoa. Leo says that these rich brown bare fields are fields of cocoa. He quite likes the look of snow dustings on his cocoa fields too!



Here is King Winter still about enjoying himself. We have a few snowdrops and root babes and a sheep mama and her lamb to try and give him the hint to make way for Spring.

  1. I love the idea of cocoa fields that look like this. :-) Right now all of ours are covered with a heavy layer of powdered sugar....

  2. Your nature table is beautiful, I love all the little figures! I also enjoy seeing your woods. We are still pretty covered in snow here, but it is sometimes warmer. Very nice.
    Hope all is very well!
    Love, Renee
