Hello lovely friends and welcome to my blog party! It's a brand new month and I look forward to what you will be sharing with us.
I showed off my lovely hydrangeas on the weekend which my sweet hubby gave me for Easter. Click here to go to that post.
I also shared a Peaches and Cream Danish recipe. You may click here to visit that post.
And on Sunday I posted an analogy comparing our lives to that of a rose in God's garden of life.

The blue hydrangeas are absolutely lovely!! The only time we could get such beautiful blue hydrangeas was when we lived in Chile - South America for a few years. Your blue dishes and tea set looks so beautiful! I enjoyed the links !!

I found you via a comment on Art and Sand. I'd love to have some Johnson Rose Chintz in my home. I'm on the Sunshine Coast in BC-any idea where I should look?

ReplyDeleteCongratulations on winning Devonshire Scream! I just finished my first tea shop mystery, Shades of Earl Grey and thoroughly enjoyed it. Makes me want to visit Charleston one day. Glad to learn the reviews of this book are so positive.
ReplyDeleteI've never seen a hydrangea in that royal blue shade before. Very stunning! It goes so well with your Blue Willow teaware.
Hope you are getting over your cold.

Dear Sandi:
ReplyDeleteThank you for featuring my post. I have had a very busy week. I wish everything was done but so much depends on my hubby as far as hanging bit pictures, etc. I am not a perfectionist and get things done fast but not always "right" and he wants it right. We really do make a good team. I have to tell you that a few things were broken. My big shabby chic clock had parts floating around when it arrived in Missouri. The man fixed it right before our eyes for free! Then he showed us how to work the green clock which has never worked - for free. We gave him the cuckoo clock to fix and left it. The funny thing is that it cuckooed once for 20 minutes in the middle of the night. Very scarey night. After that we stopped it as it never kept good time. We got it at any indoor flea market cheap and he said it was very rare as it is a Whipperwill-Cuckoo Clock - whatever that is and has 2 different birds. Well, so much for that trivia. Have a great Sunday Sandi!
big pictures - not "bit"
