On the porch

Hey there! Today I am sitting on the porch, it's just too pretty to be inside. What are you up to? I want to show you this quilt I have had a few years and love the bright colors in it. It's just right for spring and summer, well,....I like it in the winter too, it's a mood picker upper! There's a few pillows I have collected over time and of course a glass of sweet tea. Drink enough of this and be on your way to diabetes! Do you ever think how lucky we are to live in this time? A lot of things are bad, I know, but there is so much more opportunity now in ways we never could have thought of in our youth. It is truly amazing to me when I see where my readers are from. That this woman could be communicating and sharing ideas with people all over the world is so amazing to me. That we live in a time that we can share our talents, thoughts, wishes, regrets and prayers with one another as if we were sitting beside one another. There are no barriers here, I see no age, color or gender. It shows how much we have in common, that we are drawn to the infinite gems of beauty surrounding us and we are driven to share with one another. That what I bring to the table is encouraged and delighted by you, feeds my heart and makes me grateful. I am truly grateful for my readers, everyone of you.

Another Painting

Hey! Ya'll doing okay? I am so excited to share with you a new piece of art I have. It's a pretty painting! But first I want you to see this pretty produce my mister brought home this weekend. Isn't it gorgeous? He came across this huge grocery store that sells all organic produce. He and my daughter are foodies. They both cook really well and it never fails that while we are eating they will start discussing how they could have made it better if they had tried this or that. I am very fortunate because I am a simple cook!
And here is the painting...
I have no idea where I will hang it yet. Right now it's beside the dining table on the buffett. That's where I put together a lot of my vignettes. I love placing flowers there from our yard, and it's so great that it's free. Spring has really given us pretty flowers this year hasn't it?
