Sunny and Warm

The Mister and I made a quick trip to sunny and warm Arizona last week.

I wore my flip flops for three days!

To see these cute kids get married.  (Our nephew and his new bride)

There was yummy cake.

And a delicious dinner.

And on our way home, in a little town out in the middle of nowhere, I found a new project.

I wonder why the mister said NO?

He can be so unreasonable sometimes!

Irony

Snow Jealous!

A big thank you to the blogs from Southern California, Florida, South Carolina and other warm places for showing the

beautiful blooms that are showing up in your gardens.  Well, I just thought I'd show you what showed up

in my garden last night.  Don't be jealous!

I know!  Aren't we lucky?  You girls in your flip flops should

spend one moment tomorrow thinking of us northern girls who are

still in their wool socks and boots.  And share some more of your pretty

flower pictures with us!  We'd sure appreciate it!

Soup and Salad Dinner

My car is full of salad makings for our annual Soup and Salad Dinner

at our church.  Lots of work and lots of fun.

Thank goodness for Costco!

It's a Sickness

In the past couple of months I've added a few dishes to my ever growing collection.

These adorable Johnson Brothers dinner and salad plates...

 

 And these plain white dishes found at the Dollar Store...  (I saw them last spring and went home to think about whether I should buy them or not, and when I went back for them a few days later they were all gone.)

 I love white dishes.  They look good with just about anything.  Love them at Christmas with a red and white checked tablecloth or for Easter dinner with pastel linens. 

 Love their details.  A big thank you to Robyn at The Pink Peony of Le Jardin for letting her readers know they had a new supply.

 I bought a few...
I just couldn't help myself.

Gray and cloudy days make for shadowy pictures, sorry.
