Here's to lovely friends. Friends who are generous and funny and loyal and inspirational. And who have great birthday parties. Ben's 50th was such fun - a super sing-a-long to rival the Beer and Carols night at the Elderfield, thanks to the fabulous Angela. And then dancing the night away thanks to the very well put together playlist of their 15 year old. Yay!
As I dipped back in at their place for coffee the following Monday I was lamenting the fact that these hearts are not all that 'sustainable' made, as they are, from little plastic 'craft'/hair beads which turn into this rock solid bit of stained glass plastic. I've been experimenting with a variety of plastic bottles which I'd otherwise throw away. And I might segue into that later in Lent. But Mo immediately said 'Ah but they're beautiful. And besides, who wants a heart that doesn't last? ' She said it would be like the Valentine's Day chocolate heart she saw on sale after the day which was all smashed up. Who would ever buy that?? Perhaps it's important that they will last and last. And perhaps not even fade. And hopefully they will continue to shine light and love in their little way well after Lent has come and gone.
Anyway. Here's another, on their fence.
