☀ Sunlit Sunday (#7): Plants and Swans

Whether you're here to add a link or visit those who have, WELCOME!

There was some intermittent sunlight this week and I snapped a few photos of the plants in my kitchen. I do not have a pretty view from that room's window, but feel fortunate that it faces south!


It may have been an overcast day on a recent walk, which included some swan-watching, but all was sunny for my friend on the right.

At least, for a little while!

This was the sky this morning. However, "sunlit" can be taken metaphorically. A poached egg on toast and cappuccino for breakfast, a cozy weekend while the snow flies - these keep my mood light!

What "sunlight" did you find this week?

  4. Sunshine is really wherever and however one finds it. I think that such a breakfast can be as 'sunny' as the brightest summer day.

  6. Love the photos. Great that you had some sunshine.

    A poached egg on toast sounds great, yum!

    Would like to have joined in this week but the link opens too late for me on Saturday. I like to post Saturday afternoon but you weren't open until after I went to bed!
    Will have to move your side of the water!

    Have a lovely day,

  9. Oh how I love succulents. My hen and chickens last all year long. The swan adds such a majestic feels and makes you want to lift your head and chug along nice and smooth. Blessings on this fine day.

  10. Love the sun on your plants. We've had a couple of snow mornings but the snow has vanished quickly. It's a couple of hours after I did my post this morning and now the sun is coming out.
