"Happiness radiates like the fragrance from flower

"Happiness radiates like the fragrance from flowers and draws all good things towards you."
~ Maharishi Mahesh Yogi.
.▬▬▬.
Lavender symbolizes enchantment and love.
It’s well known that a person can express love to their beloved with a simple bouquet of freshly picked lavender. Here on Lavender Hill we fall in love with winter blooms of lavender and fine wines.
.▬▬▬.
I was delighted to be a guest on Sunday at ‘The Beginning of the Bloom’ here amongst the lavender bushes at Sirromet Winery, Mount Cotton.
.▬▬▬.
Sirromet Winery is well known in Southern Queensland for their class and style. They are also known as a popular destination for friends & family to wine & dine, lovers to picnic together, engagements to be held, and weddings to be celebrated.
.▬▬▬.
Let the simple things in life bring love, happiness and joy to you this week.

“Winter is not a season, it's a celebration”.

“Winter is not a season, it's a celebration”.
~ Anamika Mishra.
.▬▬▬.
Australia has a new reason to celebrate winter. Igloos are popping up in many of our capital cities, and they are loads of fun.
.▬▬▬.
Snuggle up with someone you love; share a meal with good friends; sip wine under the stars; or being the family along for a celebration they’ll never forget.
.▬▬▬.
There’s loads to see and do, and even ice skating & a snow blower for a bit of extra authenticity.
But my favourite time was twilight. As the sun went down, the colours in every igloo turned this into a magical land!
.▬▬▬.
What do you love most about winter?

“Cheese and wine are ageless companions ... like good people and noble ventures.
~ M.F.K. Fisher.
.▬▬▬.
A lovely 🌞 afternoon celebrating ‘The Beginning of the Bloom’ at Mount Cotton.
We wandered through rows of lavender bushes, met new friends, played games, created art, ate delicious cheeses & antipasto, and of course, sipped Sirromet Wines!
Then we all relaxed laying back on picnic rugs & cushions under the shade of umbrellas, as we listened to wonderful acoustic music.
.▬▬▬.
Life just can’t get better than this!
.▬▬▬.
As the sun slowly sunk behind the golden vineyards 🍁 we felt our lives had also bloomed.
What a perfect Sunday afternoon in the countryside.

“A true friend encourages us, comforts us, supports us - like a big chair, offering us a safe refuge from the world.”
~ H. Jackson Brown, Jr.
.▬▬▬.
What a wonderful evening spent with my friend who has just moved up to Queensland.
A good friendship can have months, or even years apart. Then you pick up - right where you left off.
.▬▬▬.
I love this photo she took of me in my new maxi Indigo floral dress.
It’s the perfect dress for Queensland’s mild winter days and evenings.
And the best bit, it’s incredibly comfortable, yet figure-flattering with a gathered waist.
.▬▬▬.
I think this dress by Salty Crush is going to be a favourite!

“Not all who wander are lost. Some are looking

“Not all who wander are lost.
Some are looking for that perfect seashell, just like me!”
.▬▬▬.
I love to walk along the beaches everywhere we travel and collect unique pretty seashells.
They make beautiful displays.
I confess, these shells aren’t mine.
I discovered them in the resort lobby.

“Neighbours, everybody needs good neighbours. Wi

“Neighbours, everybody needs good neighbours.
With a little understanding,
You can find the perfect blend.
Neighbours, should be there for one another,
That's when good neighbours become Good friends.”
~ TV Lyrics.
.▬▬▬.
I met the local nearby neighbour (who owns this stunning Greek-style home) one day taking photos on the river beach.
She kindly invited me in.
.▬▬▬.
I love this photo taken on her patio one Saturday.
I am so pleased I’ve met another local/neighbour and made a new friend.
.▬▬▬.
Do you get along with your neighbours?
