Last year Beep and I used my home as a base for some adventures around Portland together, but this year we both got away from home for a low-key sisters' weekend.
* stayed in a cheerful little cottage filled with eclectic art
* ate warm soup on a rainy night
* had leisurely mornings
* hunkered down to read our own copies of Choosing Gratitude: Your Journey to Joy
* went for walks around town
* given fig freezer jam from our host, made that day from figs off her own tree
* wore matching "Sisters, Sisters ..." hats from Rogue Wear
* visited a variety of antique, retro, and gift shops - Coburg Antique & Vintage Mall - both buildings, Design Works, Farm Fancy, Gracie Maxwell, Retro Rejuvenation
* decided to visit Coburg Pizza Company, played with View Masters while we waited for our food, and got more than we paid for because they accidentally made us a large pizza instead of a small one
* had conversations about life, God, personality types, and house styles we like
Such a great way to spend a couple of days!
