my dear readers… Forgive me for being hit and miss the last few weeks. A lot has been happening and I promise I will share it with you soon. You will note that we are missing one of our hosts. Benita has had to take a leave for awhile. Hopefully, she will be back soon. …

A few days ago, I talked about ordering clothes through Stitch Fix, so naturally, I was drawn to a clothing post and the ordering and designing of a wrap dress. My first choice is from Laurie on the other side of the pond. Laurie at Vanity and Me designed her wrap around dress and she…
I talked to a table….. I know! I said to the little roll up table… “You know you don’t have to be limited to just picnics in the park, or camping trips… ……how about joining me for a sorta, kinda Glammed up date?” At this point, Some might question my sanity, but I do talk…

Celebrate Your Story (CYS) Link Party! Good afternoon dear readers! I love the red, white and blue and use any excuse to decorate with it. Such as this Patriotic Picnic in the Grass last week.

Al fresco dining???…..our weather has been hot! hot! hot! or rain! rain! rain!… But I wouldn’t trade it for anywhere else. I love living in the Cape in SW Florida. And I love it when the Captain and I manage to get away to one of the nearby islands as we did a couple weeks…
Don’t you love it when a plan comes together? You know, the dishes are done and the kitchen all cleaned after supper and you are just minding your own business…. Propped up in bed with your feet higher up on pillows….thumbing through an old issue of Southern Living magazine and you see a picture of…
The Captain and I love the Red, White and Blue and we really need no excuse to celebrate, but here are a few tablescapes and vignettes we have used in the past and present.
