Can you even imagine a better porch? I love the high ceiling with architectural interest. The rockers appear to be looking out on the water too. How nice! Charleston or Savannah? Have a great weekend. via

Cat Wedged in Window
This image never fails to make me laugh. This adorable cat has wedged himself in the perfect spot for people and bird watching! Have a great day. via

Joyful Birdsong
I wish this gif had sound.
I have never seen bird breath before, have you?
I must look closely for singing birds when I see my own breath in cold weather.

Memorial Day 2017 Lest We Forget
IN FLANDERS FIELDS
John McCrae, 1872 - 1918
In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place, and in the sky,
The larks, still bravely singing, fly,
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the dead; short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe!
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high!
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

Really Great Kitchen
There are so many things to love here, I hardly know where to start. Of course, my favorite thing is the nook with the stool and one-person table or desk. I think there might be another one on the opposite side, but I'm not positive. Have a great long Memorial Day Weekend. The rainy spell is finally over and I'm happy about that. My peonies are starting to bloom too. I'll post some photos later. xo

I love the look and this would be a fun project too.
Enjoy the long holiday weekend! xo

Fun Vintage Kitchen
I love this old gas stove! There is absolutely nothing "staged" here and isn't that refreshing? via
It's actually in an AirB&B cottage in Nashville and this kitchen is about to be remodeled. Boo Hoo.

A George Washington Collection
The 35 framed antique images of George Washington in Victoria's (The Queen Vee) new cottage in Utah. This photo was posted on Instagram where she is known as @queenv47 and she mentioned it in a recent comment on my blog. It took her 5 hours to hang this arrangement and I think she did a good job, don't you? It's always fun to see the efforts of someone you know, even a virtual friend! Two thumbs up, Victoria. xo

Architectural Aviary
This structure is absolutely amazing, agreed? The best of both worlds for the birds too. via I had a very busy weekend working outside in preparation for a rainy week. Monday's morning rain made me glad I pushed myself. xo

Hallway with a Nautical Feel
The bannister newel post makes this entrance hall really special.
The newel post was fitted with a light that turns it into an indoor lighthouse. See many more photos of this lovely family home here.

Rose Trellis with Benches
You don't see this old-fashioned trellis these days, do you? The built-in benches are so charming and such a good idea. The aroma must be fabulous too when sitting there in the shade chatting with a friend. via

The power of the camera and the person behind it.
I hope you all had a wonderful Mother's Day.
