MrsM has been busy, busy, busy
since the beginning of July.
She has been feeding her family,
Jan Vermeer
The Milkmaid
reading books,
Delfin Enjolras
Young Woman Reading by a Window
even cleaning floors.
Sister Osithe
Woman at Window
After a while MrsM started to feel lonely...
Edward Hopper
Hotel Window
so she tweaked the curtain
and peeked into Blogland.
Johann Georg Meyer
Young Woman looking through a Window
Everyone else was having lots of summer fun
and after some thought,
MrsM decided to write a sequel to The Magpie Files.
Robert Kipniss
Woman at Window
MasterM has nearly finished his Gap Year
and MissM is starting her last year at school;
it is a new phase in the life of our family.
Before MrsM knew what was happening
she was writing again.
Henri Lebasque
Femme Ecrivant
It is time to throw open the window
here at ChezMagpie
and let in the morning sunshine.
Edward Hopper
Cape Cod Morning
Thank you once again for all the very kind comments
at the end of The Magpie Files -
I was overwhelmed by your generosity
and hope that I managed to reply to everyone.
If you want to join in again
you will be most welcome.

From one Mrs M to another - welcome back! Hoorah! Beautiful choice of pictures, as always. Cat x
I had just brought myself to Files for one last unbelieving visit, and there was resurrection. I was renewed! Your humour has been my daily inspiration in midst of Forsterian muddles, and I have just this week attempted to flatter through imitation, though commenting is still a new skill, and this is admittedly my second attempt! Oh the joy of reading you still!
Very pleased that the sunshine found you and you decided to share it with us again.
Glad, glad, glad.
But that higgledy-piggledy brick/tile floor must be a nightmare to clean...
How lovely to see you!
I was thinking of you just yesterday.
It's like coming home. Hooray.
So all my wishing and hoping worked--you're back--hooray! K x
Oh happy day, Alice!

Hurrah! That's all, but it bears repeating - hurrah!
hippee!!
welcome back. I really missed your writing. It's soothing, you know?
Hello, hello, hello !
What's going on here ?
You can't keep a good woman down - especially one who has such a keen eye for art and verse. I am glad to have rediscovered you in this new guise. Welcome back!
Here I am ..
thank goodness you are here too..
How wonderful to see you and what a gorgeous, bijou little gallery to start your new venture. As soon as I saw the Vermeer I knew there'd be more magic. I feel rather giddy that you're back x
Hurrah! Very happy to see the return indeed
To the googelyreader!
