Weekend Pics Around My Cottage, Inside & Out

This is the second year for these snowdrops that were transplanted and they are loaded with flower heads.

Wild raspberry hoops swaying in a gentle breeze.

The beginning of a walk to the way back to pick up sticks.

Heading back home. I like to keep my property stick free and it's easy to do every day when I go out on stick patrol. 

Everybody likes this little room off my kitchen. It was once a screened-in porch. I love sitting here with my computer, looking out the front window with the tin cat figure. A geranium is wintering over at the back window. 

Another view showing more of the floor space.

Happy Monday. Hope you are having a nice day.

That's a very inviting room for sure! Much cozier than my computer corner which I call "Siberia."

Like everyone else, I absolutely love the room which used to be a screened porch. I would sit thee all day with my computer, given the chance. Your cottage is delightful.

Gretchen Joanna -- That's so funny. You are posting from Siberia and I am reading from my pantry/office which I love. I can move around with my laptop to the sofa in front of the tv so my office is really all over the house. Sometimes at the kitchen table too.

Susan, Thank you, I love it too. That tiny space packs a big punch and it just sort of evolved when I moved in. I have a dutch door there but never close the top. I put the screen back in the front window when the weather gets nice and raise the window for a nice breeze. It's a fun place to pay bills too. I'm glad you like it.

Great pictures, Rosemary! Those raspberry hoops are such a lovely color against your landscape. I can just see you picking up sticks on your daily walks. Very ambitious. The room off your kitchen is a delight. So glad the builder had the foresight to put in those wonderful windows. Your home has great light.

Pam -- I just pick up the sticks and throw them in the woods. I don't gather them for firewood or anything like that. I love that little room off the kitchen and honestly don't know what I would do without it. It's so great for the overflow that won't fit in my kitchen cabinets. My collections look great on the shelves too. Once again, this is the only place for displaying my platters, pitchers, and antique copper pots. I'm glad you like it too.

Love the raspberry hoops such a pretty color. And I love the shot of the property where you pick up sticks! Love the room it’s quite cozy.

Noelle -- I love the raspberry hoops too. That's how they multiply. If I didn't cut them back they would take over my entire front yard. They send out the hoops and they make a new plant at the new end. My little pantry/office is quite cozy and it's my happy place.
