Spirit of the Father and the Son,
ripen your fruits in our hearts:
Grant us patience and gentleness,
charity, joy, and peace.

Well, last week was finally Pentecost, the end of the Easter season, and today is Trinity Sunday. It's very springlike, and pleasant out. Yesterday it was fifty five, wet, gusty and cold! Well, we'll be in June tomorrow, and done with that sort of thing, hopefully.
We had a nice Memorial Day and before that, a visit with an elderly aunt, my mother's remaining sister. She is ninety four, and doing as well as she can - still at home!
I finished the daffodil dress, except for the hem. I really like those sleeveless, a-line shifts for hot summer days at home, so I plan to make a couple more. I put the green blouse project aside when the heat rose - couldn't stand the thought of it.
A beautiful Tasha Tudor book was dropped off at the library, in perfect condition; I took it home to read.
Filled with quotes, poems, prose and everything romantic, I wouldn't put it in the children's section, even though it looks like all her wonderfully charming picture books for children - no, this one would go over the heads of the little ones. Apparently, if you have a toothache, you should kiss a donkey.
That was from Germany. But you're out of luck if you don't know anyone with a donkey, aren't you?
"In the Middle Ages they kissed the newborn baby three times
in the name of the Holy Trinity."
- Tasha Tudor
