Folks, as you know it is Monday and that means another CYS link party. I hope you all enjoyed the Mother’s Day Celebrations, as that wonderful May date is usually the official kick off to Summer! Yep! Summer fun like swimming, hiking, picnics, family outings and just plain hanging out in the shade, sipping on…
Wow! I mean double wow! I watched the Kentucky Derby and was shocked that there was such drama. For those who did not watch the fastest two minutes in sports, let me fill you in. The favorite and winning horse did not win after all as a legal protest was filed immediately after the race…
Happy Monday my dear readers, It is such a beautiful day here in SW Florida, And the week-end was perfect for cleaning up and planting gardens. The Captain and I worked in the Secret Garden as well as the front garden, stopping only to go to church on Sunday and to treat ourselves to a…
As we wind down this past Easter Holiday and move towards Spring and Summer Holidays…I hope you are able to take a breather. Replacing a few windows and adding a French Door has gotten me in the mood to make a few other changes in my efforts of preparing for Spring. Like updating a couple…
Hello dear readers…this past week has been a busy one. The Captain and I had several functions to attend as well as the usual Spring maintenance around the house. We try to put down new mulch around all the outdoor plants in the Spring, although in Florida, the time of year is not that important….
It is that time, dear readers, to get out the sandals, sunglasses and sun dresses and begin to enjoy Spring. Sundresses???? Yeah right! Like that is gonna happen for me! I haven’t bared my upper arms since 1998, unless it is to wear a bathing suit, which by the way, I swore off of until…

Link Party time my friends and we have some special tablescapes that I want to share with you as my favorite featured links. This week has been a very busy week, it seems like the Captain and I are meeting each other coming and going. Have you ever had weeks like that? I am sure…
Where has the week gone? Is it me or are the days flying by? Perhaps it is because I had company family visiting for the last part of February and the first part of March. Perhaps it is because I had a head cold and was sidelined for a few lost days. Or perhaps I…
Good Evening dear readers and I hope you are not digging out from under many, many inches of snow and/or ice. I have been absent for a couple days as my only daughter and grand daughter #3 escaped the 13 degree temps of the midwest, for some warm rays of SW Florida. We had a…
