Enchanting Windows


Cielo at The House In The Roses invited us to post a favorite window from our home for her
Enchanting Windows Party.
The party is being held today. Do stop by to visit Cielo and see all the pretty windows.

Just a few days ago I walked into my kitchen to start preparing dinner, and noticed how charming the room looked in the late afternoon sunlight. The amber light filtering through this window gave me a feeling of Autumn even though the trees are green and the lantana is still blooming in the window box. As I looked out a hummingbird came to the blossoms to feed.

I spend a lot of time looking through this window. I like what I see as I go about my kitchen chores. Larger windows at the other side of the kitchen, look out to lovely views of my back garden, however today this is my favorite.

A view of the same window from outside. I always have something seasonal in the window box ~ it's a cottage thing!

Below, the other lovely view from the kitchen.


All the windows of my heart I open to the day.
