Three Nice Porches

Which one do you like best? Porch season is here. It's drizzling rain at my house today but there's a little chill in the air so I'll have to choose the first one because it's glassed in. When it gets hotter I'll move to the second one. The third is a nice place to sit and watch the world go by since it looks out on the front. I'll sip my morning coffee there and watch the bluebirds fly around catching insects to feed their babies.

Bluebells On A Country Path

I thought you'd all enjoy taking a morning walk with me down this country lane to look at all the bluebells on this slope in the UK. Aren't they beautiful?

Goodnight, Time For Bed And Primetime

I had a busy and productive day. I just took my laundry off the line and made my bed. Can't wait to jump in it and watch TV. Monday night is my favorite. See you tomorrow, Rosemary.

I Love This Old House

Dibs. I saw it first. This is exactly my kind of house. I wouldn't even have to go inside. If the price were right, I would just buy it. It breaks my heart to think it has been abandoned. Wonder where it is? I love the tall broom grass too.

Sunrise With Swans

I thought this sunrise with swans in Bruges, Belgium would be the perfect image to get your week off to a good start. It's beautiful, isn't it? via Pixdaus

Flowers Growing In The Grass

My grass could use a good cutting but I can't make myself mow over the grape hyanciths and wild white violets. Could you? I just learned that the New Jersey State Flower is the common meadow violet. Maybe that's why I have so many. I have purple ones too but I love the contrast of the white ones against their dark green leaves and the grass. They have such sweet pansy-like faces.

Images captured this afternoon in my front yard with my Nikon D40 + Nikon 18-200 lens.

Reading In A Pretty Chair

I've always loved the charming illustrations of Jessie Wilcox Smith. These two children reading together in a wonderful wing chair slipcovered in chintz is one I haven't seen before. It's perfect for today since they seem to be dressed in their Sunday best.

Justin Bieber + Tina Fey SNL Rehearsal

I should have stayed up last night to watch this. Did you see Saturday Night Live? I must admit that I'd never even heard of Justin Bieber until I saw all the promos but now I love him too.

He has a new Audio CD: Justin Bieber ~ My World 2.0

Life's Little Instruction Book | Volume II | Page 9

I like the last one on this page. Some people don't live up to their relatives and others surpass them. Focus on the individual. It's a beautiful sunshiny Sunday here at the cottage and the spring leaves that are beginning to pop make the trees look like impressionist paintings. Have a great day, Rosemary.
