Your mom captured Love’s Cove, and your photo does too (perfect name!). Love the image of the little girl waiting for the bus to the three-room schoolhouse. That sounds like a delicious Valentine’s Day meal too!

I’ve always loved your Cove and the view of it from your house. But I see it now with new eyes, thank you for sharing such beautiful thoughts of your cove and our Island 💙

Love this post, for all kinds of reasons. The picture you painted with your words of Love's Cove, and then the photo, were fantastic. Thanks for the SKINNY SCALLOPED POTATOES recipe - I'll try those this weekend! Yay! I also love your mom's sketch. So mom-ish.

Everybody needs a five minute meal out of the sea to make after spending the day languishing in the sun or out on the water

Love's Cove! That name is so wonderful. And that photo is gorgeous. I would never move from there, if I lived there. ❤️

Love the scallop recipe. I recently discovered how quick and tasty searing scallops on the stove can be for dinner. Now they're a go-to meal when I want something different but quick for a tasty meal.
