Small things are good things right now. Your cards are beautiful and that pie looks delicious. Even though we managed to eat ours and that was a lot of pie for so short a time. Happy December Nan, and hope it was a happy T day. Hugs-Erika
You certainly have a lot of things to be thankful for. Your cards are beautiful and your calligraphy is perfect. Beautiful pie and great drinks. Thanks for sharing them with us for T this Tuesday, Nan.
Thanks for my happy mail!!! It's the bright light of the day when it appears. The watercolor is particularly lovely. And the cranberry and Prosecco certainly would hit the spot!
So much to be thankful for! Loving all the things listed and cranberry juice and prosecco is the perfect drink to celebrate at this time of year- cheers š. Loving your watercolour and dies, the little bunny rabbit is super cute and those skeleton leaves are so beautiful! That's such a lovely photo of you and the girls too! Happy wishes! Hugs, Jo x

Art in Bloom Art in Bloom is being celebrated as a rite of Spring fundraising for art museums and libraries . In museums, floral designers create a piece to coordinate art on display.

Nothing says traditions like a holiday...and in our house Birthdays have always been treated like holidays! We hold firmly to the belief that if there is a day you are ever going to celebrate, it's the day you were born. Luckily for Fi, her birthday is October 8, which coincides with Columbus day this year, extending the Birthday to Birthday weekend. We lined up all kinds of special treats, starting with a Half Marathon on Saturday, if you can call that a treat..followed up with some other birthday specials, breakfast out at our favorite diner, presents, bookstore coffee and browse around, made to order breakfasts and dinners, chocolate cake (yum!) and a wind down with one of our favorite hobbies on Monday... painting Halloween Vignette Years ago, I painted unfinished wood and sold it at craft fairs. Fi loved to go with me to purchase supplies and attend craft shows looking for ideas. Although it has been a long time since I have participated in a craft fair, we still hav
