Silly Me!

Walking thru my kitchen this afternnon, my apron here slapped me in the face, so to speak. The colors I loved yesterday (see pic w/Outdoor Furnitures below), that are speaking to me, are some of the most vibrant colors of Provence, France and Tuscany, Italy. I acknowledged the huge, not so subtle hints the universe has been giving me about France since this past Autumn. I haven't forgotten. I'm working on it!

Yes, I think I'll be running back to Pier One in the morning, then picking up a chair for only $20 at Foodtown (then spray paint since it's not the color I want). I think the table is a good omen!

You are so ready to travel. I see it in your future. You are going to write a book and star in the movie, Jo's Under the Tuscan Sun!

Lol, Meg, thank you! If only I had as much faith & confidence in myself as everyone else does.

I'm definately buying that end table tomorrow am. And the chair. And spray paint. (I've got to get potting soil & grass seed at the hardware store anyway!)

I love all the pics, Jo! Also wanted to say that you mentioned the molly pitcher in your comment on my blog and that is where my husband and I had our wedding reception. Small world! (would have emailed but didn't see it on here)

2nd Annual Practical Magic Blog Party 2011 is Here! *Updated*

It's time for the 2nd Annual Practical Magic Blog Party created & hosted by the wonderful Anna of Frosted Petunias ! My sincerest apologies for getting this up rather late! The adventure that is post Hurricane Irene cleanup & repairs has been taking up too much time recently. (sigh) Things are a mess; I only started decorating for Autumn yesterday and I'm missing Halloween decorations! Luckily my broom is always safe and sound by the front door so at least I don't have to wonder where it is. (Not that it hasn't been known to scamper off now and again - naughty broom). I was afraid, quite honestly, that I wouldn't even get a post up sometime today! I kept hitting dead ends with every other one I tried. But, this morning I sat here at the computer and it flowed. Thankfully! I would have been so disappointed if I'd missed this, it was such fun last year! As some may remember from last years party, while I like the movie, (and love that house!), I love the...

The Time Is Upon Us Once Again!

Welcome Friends! It's time once again for A Fanciful Twist Halloween Party ! Warmest thanks to the lovely Vanessa for hosting again this year. My apologies for not having this up sooner, I've been dreadfully under the weather and my helpers have been more of a hindrance! My lovely kitchen witch Helvetica has given up time off and has been cooking & baking away since last night but the skeletons have been eating everything in sight (damn their bottomless stomachs!) though they won't fess up and the invisible man has been raving on and on every time the door bell rings! I do hope you'll enjoy your visit to Pumpkin Manor and have a Happy Halloween ! I look forward to your return. (Slideshow below - if it plays too fast, hover your cursor on it until the <- -> appear & click on them to view what you've missed).

11:14pm (3/16/09) Watching a documentary Tennessee is so beautiful Head & nose all stuffy Out of ZyrtekD - sigh Want to read but distracted by my clogged head Hubby's snoring a little, restless a lot I worry about him He's so tired, works so much Doesn't get to do what he enjoys often enough (If at all) He willingly took my burdens & made them his own I'm still not used to being taken care of Makes me uncomfortable, guilty I took care of things for so many years Are 2 persons "stuff" too much for 1 person? Even a good, strong man? I know what it is to do more than my "fair share" Though the situation was completely different Is the end result the same?
