Uh Oh!

Many years ago my mom used to send out Tasha Tudor Christmas cards. They were enchanting. In later years I discovered her books both old and new and loved and collected them. I even had the opportunity to hear her talk which gave me a better insight into the person she was. Today, Sunday, March 15, 2009, the first article on the front page of The Boston Globe that catches my attention is an article titled "The Fall of the House of Tudor". Am I surprised? Not exactly, just sad. Enough said. If you are so inclined you can read it for yourself.

Duck Display

Thought my new shutter shelf worked beautifully for my duck display at the July Madison show. A beautful day.

Don't you love the bird?

What a find! Perfect Father's Day gift for Dad's garden. A clever craftsman has created these charming herons. This is the larger one and there is a baby too. Love it so much I must get one for myself and if I could figure out how to ship it I would offer it to you! Any interest? If so I'll consider the shipping problem.

Seasons Change

Oh no! Time goes by so quickly!

Can't help but to laugh!

Summer. 2009

Recently I have lost two of my furry friends, most likely to what they say is probably a coyote apparently roaming the neighborhood. The rest of the family is really sticking around and we are making an effort to keep everyone inside particularly at night. Found Big Tom napping in this fine wooden bowl, too small for him but apparently quite comfy. Unfortunately he did not smile for this picture for he is quite a handsome fellow!

Oh yes, the coverlet piece is for sale, doesn't it look great on the cupboard. My kids love that I have price tags hanging off of this and that! Sorry I should have removed it for the picture! But you know cats, one false move and off they go, picture opportunity gone!

Alien Landing Strip?

January, 2010

Been lazy musing recently or at least writing down my musings! But every time I look out my bedroom window I smile and think I need to share. Perhaps you think I'm nuts and maybe I am but . . . This is what we do to help the cats get around and also to play tricks on them - dead ends in the labyrinth! Nice look don't you think!? Gotta get through winter one way or another.

Texas

No these are not the bluebonnets of Texas, but they bring to mind my one and only trip there once upon a time! When I had Country Reflections my partner and I decided it would be fun to visit the Round Top Antique Show and off we went. The fields of wildflowers were amazing as were the shows. How great it was to leave winter behind and what fun we had.

Now I am looking forward to returning some day as I have heard of a great shop called Silver Star Mercantile in Carrollton, Texas. Until I can get there, check it out for me if you are in the area! And what I really want to know is Cowboy Sam the heartthrob they say!
