~A Day In The Life Of Miss Rosie~

Welcome, to the world of Miss Rosie...


You arrive at Meadowbrook, the lovely cottage home of Miss Rosie, and her family.


The table set for a hearty country breakfast.


After breakfast, Rosie strolls down the lane...


To gather berries.



To be used for dyeing cloth.


Later that afternoon...


....she and her sister, Julia, head out to read where it is cool, under the trees in the orchard.


Julia.


What are you reading?


Tea is informal event with the family, and is served in the afternoon.


Toward dinner time, Rosie, Celeisa, and Aimaija, go to the garden to pick green beans for the evening meal.


There are lettuce, garlic scapes, and green beans, in right now.
And, the new potatoes will be ready to start harvesting soon.


Green bean picking.


Hard at work.


Sweet little ladies.


Aimaija, eats more then she picks.


There is always mending to be done.


And, down by the stream is the coolest place.


The art of sewing.


The sun goes down, the oil lamps are lit, and the day is soon over at Meadowbrook farm.

  3. Simply beautiful, although I am sure there would have been time to walk over and visit with your friend over the way, Mrs. Raquel. LOL I would have invited you in for some fresh lemonade and returned the book I borrowed last week. Great pics! Much love - Raquel XO
