2024 SPSH - 2nd Link In

 Good Morning.  I hope everyone is having a wonderful summer.  Today is the second of 3 link ins for the 2024 SPSH, hosted by Ruth & her Best Friend over at This West London Life; the list can be found at: This West London Life - 2024 SPSH

For this link in, these are my finds:

#3 - A Colourful Front Door; this one has a colourful past.  I like how the scales of justice are the keystone.  

We crossed an item off my bucket list by walking the reformatory (prison) grounds.  This reformatory closed in 2002 as has been under much discussion as what to do with it.  Overall the main buildings are in good shape. There's about 1000 acres which link in with trails along a river & the university. Difference between a prison & reformatory is that one is governed controlled by the federal government (prison) & the other is controlled provincially. Reformatories are for non-violent crimes.

#4 - What's On Your Feet; my new this season red running shoes (or as some would call them, sneakers or joggers) (trust me no jogging will be done in this shoes).  They are very comfortable & I can wear them with several outfits.  They debuted on Canada Day.

#5 Favourite Summer Food/Meal; hands down or should I say spoons down & I should more often, is Chapman's frozen yoghurt - Black Jack. Oh so good.


#7 Favourite Summer Reading Nook/Space; this is also a favourite winter, autumn & spring space. The floral case is for my bible.



#8 Something Colourful In Your Garden/Neighbourhood; I grew these annuals from seed.  Silver Cup Lavatera (Lavatera trimestris) (aka Tree Mallows)


#11 A Kitchen Utensil You Hardly Ever Use; we rarely have mashed potatoes, usually just at Thanksgiving & Christmas, so my potato masher does not see a lot of action.



See you on Wednesday October 2nd,  for the final link in of the 2024 SPSH.

No one else is supposed to understand your calling.

It wasn't a conference call.
