Wonderful Window Wall with Door

 
Isn't this a spectacular floor to ceiling window with concealed door? It is cool and windy and feels almost like fall after that heat wave a few days ago. Mother Nature can't make up her mind. via
Have a great weekend.

Limeade Leftovers


Photo is mine.
I made a big pitcher of limeade yesterday and today I'm drinking limewater made from what was left in the bottom of the pitcher. Just like Martha!

The Cat with The Heart-Shaped Whisker


It's a very sweet image, isn't it? I makes me sleepy just looking at it and it's way too early for me to be thinking about going to bed. We had a very lovely day today with sun and the first blue sky I've seen in ages and very comfortable temperatures. I was so happy to turn off the A/C before retiring last night. See you tomorrow. G'night. via

Listen to A. A. Milne himself read from Winnie-The-Pooh in 1929 on a gramophone recording. This video is delightfully illustrated with family photos and illustrations from the book. Click here if you are unable to view.

This is the only convertible I would ever consider owning. via

Knitting Mouse | Beatrix Potter


I love discovering new drawings by Beatrix Potter that I've never seen before. This knitting mouse delights me. Signed lower right H.B.P. for Helen Beatrix Potter, her full name. via

My Next Kitchen


Wow. This is really all you need, isn't it? You would never know this free-standing cupboard was complete kitchen, would you? When it's closed it looks like this:

Rolling Garden Bench

Wheelbarrow bench, Abbey House Gardens, Malmesbury, Wiltshire. via

This is my favorite garden furniture design ever! Could anything be easier to move when you need to mow under it? I have a page bookmarked in an old gardening book with the following photo:

I blogged about it ages ago here. The photo still resides in my sidebar. I added the text to the photo to make this bench mine!
