“You’re set on a storefront?” Will asked. “What else would we have?” Emma seemed utterly surprised by his question. “We’re not looking to do online sales only.” “In-person sales don’t need a brick-and-mortar structure,” Will countered while leaning back to enjoy his coffee and giving her time to reason that out. She would. He and… Continue reading A sensible proposal?

Just a friend
“Cold enough for you?” Paul Lally, a gentleman in his late fifties and owner of the diner, called as he threw another cup of rock salt on the sidewalk. “Too cold,” Henry replied. Paul’s laugh puffed out in front of him. “We’ve got some messy weather coming.” “So I’ve heard.” Standing in front of the… Continue reading Just a friend
Is there magic in those cinnamon buns?
Lacey picked up her cinnamon bun and looked at it from the top, then the side, and then the bottom. “What’s in it?” she asked Emma. “What do you mean?” his sister replied. “You made it sound like your brother would be hard to convince about your idea to start a café. I assumed it… Continue reading Is there magic in those cinnamon buns?
A Stroll through Pete’s on a Soggy Saturday
Spring around here has some of my favourite weather: sunshine, a nice breeze, and cool to warm (but not hot) temperatures. However, not every spring day is so perfect. Some… or is that many? 🙂 … can be quite damp. Such was the case a couple of weekends ago. So, where did my husband and I go… Continue reading A Stroll through Pete’s on a Soggy Saturday
The Salt Marsh Trail (in the rain)
This past Saturday, I was just itching to get out of the house and go somewhere. It’s spring, so these moments of “let me outside” happen now and then. Usually, they happen on pretty, sunny days. Saturday was not such a day. It was sunny and cloudy and growing grey when we left the house.… Continue reading The Salt Marsh Trail (in the rain)
Nature in the City
What a lovely Saturday this past Saturday was! It was so nice that my husband and I were able to walked a new-to-us trail. (We’ll be back to walk this trail again.) This one is surrounded by houses and apartment complexes. So that meant there were sounds of nature like water babbling along in a… Continue reading Nature in the City
A Turn in the Road (Drabble #2)
These drabbles aren’t supposed to be connected in any way, but I sometimes can’t help making connections. It’s part of the way my brain works. 🙂 This second drabble goes with Drabble #1 because someone on Instagram commented on that drabble asking if the guy in the van at the corner might be the girl’s… Continue reading A Turn in the Road (Drabble #2)
Courage to Forge Her Future (Drabble #1)
What is a drabble? Simply stated it is a 100-word long work of fiction. There should be a beginning, middle, and end, but not all the story will appear on the page. Some of the story will just be understood and felt by the reader as it is for the writer. For me, these drabbles… Continue reading Courage to Forge Her Future (Drabble #1)
Finally a sunny Sunday!
Finally, we had a weekend day that was good for taking a walk here in Lower Sackville, NS. It was COLD but sunny. The temperature was well below freezing, and there was a light breeze. I bundled up in multiple layers, and my husband and I tried out a new-to-us trail. This trail is paved and… Continue reading Finally a sunny Sunday!
The Sackville-Bedford Greenway Trail
On a sunny and not too cold day at the end of December 2021, my husband and I took out final trail walk of the year. The trail we chose to walk is located between the TransCanada highway 101 and the Sackville River and is known as the Sackville-Bedford Greenway Trail. We started on the… Continue reading The Sackville-Bedford Greenway Trail
