By night on the deck The summer of 2022 is going to be the summer I went solar. No, not those panels decorating so many roofs. I've gone solar with casual lighting for my deck and front porch. By day on the deck It really started with the front porch and wanting a soft light … Continue reading Summer Night Lights
No, Silly Me isn't a china pattern. It's me! I'm still laughing at myself about this and probably will every time I pick up the two pieces of Asiatic Pheasant that I own! I bought this plate in a thrift store, probably for less than $5, several years ago. I really don't care for birds … Continue reading Tuesday Teacup: Silly Me
I had this Sunday brunch inspiration while driving home from early church. Remember to find time to relax and enjoy life; it’s too short to miss out on moments of peace and happiness!
Little Free Libraries, like WPA markers, almost always catch my eye. If I can't stop, then I make it a point to return and get pictures, straighten up books, and leave a few books.

Wave that flag and ring the dinner bell! Let's eat! Hot weather is here where I live and that means it is time to transition from spring decorations to summer. Since May ends with Memorial Day and then June leads into Independence Day, I decorate with a Patriotic theme for the first part of the … Continue reading Tablescapes: Patriotic and Summer
What is it about blue bicycles? This pillow immediately caught my eye and, of course, it came home with me to spend the summer in this chair. I was looking for a summer theme pillow and this was the perfect choice! Perhaps the blue bicycle attraction is based on this one that served me well … Continue reading The Blue Bicycle
This little lantern is frozen onto the table. So are the leaves. We knew it was coming, but the question (as always) was if it would be as severe as predicted, less severe, or much more severe than predicted. The television station meteorologists hyped it up. Hey, this is big news and we don't want … Continue reading Punxsutawney Phil is right
