I thought I'd have time to prepare two
Poetry Friday posts--one for
Wild Rose Reader and one for
Blue Rose Girls--but I've been extremely busy shopping, preparing foods (pesto, blueberry sauce for pancakes, blue cheese dip,
mascarpone cream with bourbon vanilla, raspberry sauce,
sundried tomato and basil spread with cream cheese and creme
fraiche, smoked salmon
tatare with a horseradish cream and basil sauce), and packing for our trip to Maine. We leave early this afternoon. I can hardly wait to get there. We'll be staying in the same beautiful waterfront home where we spent a week last September.
Here are some pictures I took while we we there last year:
For any of you out there who love the coast of Maine as much as I do, you'll probably agree that one children's book that truly captures the flavor of the place in both words and pictures is Robert
McCloskey's Caldecott classic
Time of Wonder. I was working on a post about the book this week--but haven't finished it yet.
Well, I must get ready to head north to go "Down Maine." Have a great week. I don't know if I'll be posting while I'm on vacation. It may depend on the weather.
