With so many things to be grateful for - more than we may initially realize, this Bourbon Pumpkin Tart included (recipe is linked in today’s blog post), I am savoring a Thanksgiving on my own this year and the opportunities doing so brings.

The holiday shopping season has begun, and TSLL’s annual Holiday Gift Guide is now up on the blog with oodles of British and French inspired finds (40+). And while I haven’t decorated my house yet for the winter holidays (as evidenced here), what always brings me comfort are details, daily rituals and an approach to everyday life inspired by these two beloved cultures: A simple cuppa every day, two or three times a day, and memories of France whether offered in pics, prints or paintings or just a simple luxurious touch such as a bouquet of roses just because. #tsllsimpleluxuries #tsllfrancophilefind

Snuggling in this evening with a new book and hot Cuppa. The snow and rain are blowing in, and I cannot wait for the change of weather to come. Ready, ready, more than ready with each day for its arrival. After all, when winter comes with all of its chill and cold, it provides an opportunity for growth - spring will come, but first the winter freeze. #tsllsimpleluxuries #tsllreads #tsllquotables
