Cottage QUEST.

Ever felt like you wanted to get away from it all, and relax, just for a day or two?

@Francesca__ah_ and her friends are hardworking women. They're desperately seeking a cottage weekend to hang loose, drink wine and just chill. In a half-hearted (yet somehow hopeful) tweet to see if anyone would loan them a cottage, a hashtag was born:

#CottageQUEST.

Francesca, @KimberleyCanada, @laurie_pringle, @LeahEustace, and @daniellaanne I drew this for you and me and everyone who wants and needs a break. It's not a cottage per se, but it's a lovely view.

And look friends, there's an extra woman in there; maybe it could be you..?

Share this moment.

    Well it could not be me... with my hips two of these poor women would be pushed into the water. But hey, I'm 35 and I have a 9 month old I can be fat a little while longer... right?

    Sarah - women change sizes throughout their lives. The media forces all kinds of images onto us, rather unfairly I think. As long as we feel good and healthy. As to the drawing, just pick the gal with the fullest wine glass and be her!

    Dana - Something about a sunset that is kinda magical. Girl time rocks. Also? Wine.

    I love this. Don't need to go anywhere. Just seeing this is a wee bit of a magical, heart-lifting gift. Thank you.
