Look

A perfect look for September weather in my part of California. Mornings are starting out a little bit cool but the afternoons are still scorching.

Wants, Needs, Desires

Love. Wish I had this floor. Just in the wet and highly traveled areas, everywhere else I'll take wood with pretty rugs on top, please.

Art Appreciation

The Artist's Wife by William Merritt Chase. So many shades of pink in one place. I just love the mix.

Fenced In

I adore the idea of hedges in place of fences. Not only are they beautiful but I imagine they are much less costly to maintain/replace. Our fence is slowly wasting away, maybe I should get planting!

Love

I'd never have been able to predict that I might someday fall in love with a drain pipe but look!

Souvenir

I love the idea a souvenir but not the kind that has destination names spelled out on everything imaginable. Instead, I like to simply bring home a special something for myself that will remind me of my trip whenever I see or use it. This time it was gold stork scissors from Purl Soho which I hope will be nestled in with my notions many, many years from now and get put to lots of good use.

Update

I'm a bit delayed in posting about my trip to New York only because I've been trying to figure out just what to say. It was an experience that can't easily be put into words. Put simply, I love New York. I love the pace , the attitude, the style, the variety and the simplicity. I don't think I'd necessarily want to live there but I am most certainly going to go back to visit...again and again and again!

Away

Be back soon!

Imagine

A trailer in the backyard would be so much fun and perfect for guests!
