"It is no bad thing to celebrate a simple life." So says Bilbo Baggins in the LOTR movie. And being a hobbit of the Tookish sort, I agree.

I like coconut creme pie better than most people. But I like you better than most people, too, my hobbit-ish friend.
P.S. Thinking of you this week--planning to swing away on a project. Could strike out big time, but it feels wrong not to swing.
Swing away, Nancy. Swing away.xx
Beautiful pictures. Great blessings! I like the decoration of the planter and the lovely sort of pansies growing there.
The bread looks yummy, the flower box beautiful. Glad you had a Tookish kind of adventure, the roadside cafe looks like a cool place and the coconut cream pie, the last picture explains it all :-). Have a great week!
love the "misty mountains." and i'm swooning a bit over that gorgeous cafe photo...
Kristi and Rachel, thank you! I made that planter years ago, by gluing pieces of old dishes and what-not that my children broke over the years. :)
Leslie, that cafe was so cool. We found it accidentally on a mountain road in Central PA. It was at the back of a very ordinary farm market. A hidden treasure.
um, definitely want to go on a road trip with you. that would be absolutely amazing.
Oooh, especially the coconut creme heaven.Yum!
Have a wonderful week.
oh, a girl after my own heart...i love all that you are grateful for, especially the bee farm...gonna have to put that on my bucket list!

hee hee, cute cafe...delish pie!
I love the before and after! lol... And the knee shot in the road trip pic.
I love the quote too!
Dog gone it. I had a shot at coconut cream pie on Saturday, and I passed it up. Look, and yours is gone too. Now where am I going to get me a piece of that pie?
Yes, celebrate the simple life, love that quote at the beginning. And your list. So full of life and adventure, in a simple sort of way, of course:)
oh how i love these simple things. xo
sweet ending! i want one!
I love this. I think your blog is a peaceful place for my brain to rest. I mean that seriously, even though it sounds crazy. :)
Homemade pie at a roadside cafe - yuuuummmmm :)
Love it Acorn! The photos are perfect and very Hobbitish (esp the Misty Mountains :) And that coconut cream pie!
How timely. Ethan and I just finished listening to The Hobbit on CD. I had never read it. And now I can say I understand your references here.
