Our Daily Bread

Conversation in a bakery:
Me: Hey Phil, come over here and look at this cool wreath of wheat!!
Phil: Huh?
Me: Isn't it pretty? And look, it's right over this mirror! We look good in the mirror with the wreath over us, let me take a picture!
Phil: Huh?
Me: Now come closer and SMILE!!! (SNAP!)


"Extol the Lord, O Zion...
for he strenghtens the bars of your gates
and blesses your people within you.
He grants peace to your borders
and satisfies you with the finest of wheat.
He sends commands to the earth;
his word runs swiftly."
Psalm 147: 12,15

Phil is such a good sport... Aren't you lucky to have such a wonderful hubby? I am too!!!!

Cute little wreath.... This must have been taken in winter since you both have coats on.
Hugs,

I LOVE the way your husband is looking at you in this photo. I have a feeling he adores you!

SquirrelQueen said...

Ginny, you and Phil have so much fun. I love the photos of the two of you and the wheat wreath.

There is wheat in the fields all around our area, I wonder why I have never seen one of those wreaths here?

Regina said...

What a pretty one too Ginny!! I love wreathes. So this was taken in a bakery.. OK, that makes sense. Phil has quite an amused look on his face (lol)

DawnTreader said...

Huh or no huh, that man really loves the crazy woman with the camera... I can tell! ;)

Ann said...

That Phil is such a good sport. No way would Wade be standing there with a smile on his face while I took pictures. He always acts like he's embarrassed when I pull out my camera.
Love that wreath.

Have a wonderful day and enjoy your daily bread, preferably with lots of sweet, creamery butter on top ;-)

Hi Ginny, Yes, wreathes of woven wheat straw are unique crafts. Very English, I think. Probably also in some European places as well. Takes skill to learn to braid and weave the wheat. Have a super evening.

Tammy@Simple Southern Happiness said...

I have many a conversation like that. LOVE the picture and your Phil's expression.

Chatty Crone said...

Gosh I thought that was a wreath made out of wheat - you find the best things.

Fred Alton said...

You always find the reminders of God's love for us - his children. Thanks for the good pictures of you and Phil.

Bobbie said...

So cute! And what did you get good?
