Went for a drive last week and as we turned a curve, there it was…. and what could be more garden related than a tractor? And what could be better than a tractor? A red tractor. ~ Happiness is never stopping to think if you are. ~Palmer Sondreal Visit Spun with Tears [...]
Found this guy at the Madison Bouckville Antique show last summer. It is an old soup terrine. It says Italy on the bottom. It appears pretty old, but even if it isn’t, as soon as I saw that face I knew I had to get it. That and the aqua color on the bottom made it irresistible to [...]
Valentines Day is a fun holiday. There is romance, cute cards, and there is a lot of pink and red. There are also chocolates.
