more snow???!!! and a great find at Home Goods


I reached my quota for snow weeks ago.  
Another 8"-10" are on the way tonight.
: (
I am SO ready for Spring.

I found the perfect piece of furniture for my sun room
last week in my favorite Home Goods.
You know what that means, just what I wanted
but very reasonable.
This was just what I was looking for,
but not that day, which was why I found it!


So perfect for that spot!  It was marked down 50%
and love at first sight.  Pictures of it went soaring into
cyberspace for my daughter's, husband's and sister's
approval.  There were scratches & big nicks, but
a can of satin black enamel solved everything.

Hope your week  is happy!

  5. Oh those violets look good, especially in view of all the snow around me. That is a nice looking piece of furniture. You did a great job. I wish I had a sun room, in fact I would just love to see some sun.

I'm so happy for you, my friend! I love where you place it too! Ohh yes...I see all that beautiful blue and white glassware peeking out...so very pretty!

  8. There's no way that you could have left that cabinet behind - it's perfect.
    I bought primroses on the weekend, to fill the pots on the veranda that had been full of cedar and pine boughs since Christmas. I can't wait for the rananunculus (spelling!)to be in the shops, as they are my favorite.
