Hello Beautiful.........
You look lovely.....
              but wait..........
                      what is this?






Hmmmmmmmm
  Wait...I think I see a clue.






                          

                  A tunnel.......


He he he...... it is under control!

I recently found some great mirrors at sales and painted most of them white.





Along with new white lace curtains and bedding...this room is so soft and welcoming. I just love to sit here when the sun comes in the window.

Some of my quilts I have made are on the ladder.

 a comfy chair and a comfy quilt,






The suitcase was a great find a couple weeks ago..for $1.00.


We have the white barnyard looking wall board on some of the walls, I really like the look of it.



Thanks for stopping by. I am joining White Wednesday for the first time this week.
and stop by Funky Junk Interiors for great decorating ideas!

Have you ever grown straw flowers? 
    I love the colors and the papery feel.


See how  they turn all fuzzy like dandelions? Oh that they would grow like dandelions...but they are not hardy here..only an annual in zone 4.


The cabbage is doing well..
Did you know if you pick a small head early in the season, after a couple months of growth, you know that first taste just big enough for the first small dish of coleslaw..... 


that if you leave the roots and large leaves...

at every "joint" of a leaf you will get a new baby head of cabbage for later in the year??



These are solid small heads of cabbage and there is still 2 months of growing season for them left.
Your cabbage plant can yield one large head or 4-6 smaller heads!

Enjoy the garden!

Let's have some fun and reminisce together.

 Well, it happened.
  For years I have secretly laughed at the memory of my mother going out on a date when I was around 12 years old.
It was summer and she wore white slacks and low heals, she had her hair piled high, as usual.
  She walked to the car, and right there....swaying between her hips was the writing on her blue panties.
One word..............YES
NOT good dating etiquette, Isn't there something about at least getting dinner first???
  So...Today
After dropping off my son at work,
      a quick stop at the grocery store,
            and a browse through the clearance aisle at Michaels.......
I sat on my yellow rocking chair, with my coffee, chatting on the phone,
    when I looked down to see......
My turquoise striped undies through my white capris!
   God humbles the proud.
