Great Quote about Possessions
I love this quote. I released lots of snow on my walk and on my car this morning and it made me happy. The bright sun is doing a nice job of melting the driveway, just as I hoped it would. Happy first full day of spring. Have a great weekend. xo

First Day of Spring 2015 New Jersey Style
Mother Nature is having her last hurrah before ushering in spring. I took this photo about 5 minutes ago and it's still coming down hard. I am going out in it with Webster in a few and we are going to walk all the way to the rear of the property as we have been doing for the past few days. The road is black from all the salt. I am going to phone my plow man and tell him not to come tomorrow and hope this white stuff melts on its own quickly as I think it will.
Life Inside a Birdhouse
Happy first day of Spring. We are supposed to have snow later this morning that won't quit until midnight. It should melt tomorrow when the thermometer climbs to 50°. This little bird video made me smile. It looks like my life -- tidy all day, watch tv, and look in the refrigerator.

Perfect Easter Place Setting
This is absolutely wonderful. If you don't feel like making these adorable napkin rings, you could fold your napkins into bunny ears. via
A Truly Beautiful Scottish Landscape
This takes my breath away. Gribun Rocks on the West Coast of the Isle of Mull, Scotland via It has everything I love to go with the perfect cottage and outbuildings -- a stream, the sea, the mountains, a meadow, a big sky view, and sheep.

Breakfast Food Quote
Agreed. via
Who is Ron Swanson? I have no idea. I googled him and he is a character on Parks and Recreation, a show I have never watched.

Screened Porch Love
A preview of what's to come. I like this arrangement so the people to prefer to be outside in the sun with the bugs can still be close to the shade-loving, bug-hating people. Nice. via
Irish Blessings for St. Patrick's Day
I made all of these Irish Blessings over the years and still love each one. Wear something green and have a Happy St. Patrick's Day.

Wonderful Porch with Fireplace
This is precisely the time of year you'd enjoy sitting out here with a roaring fire. You could watch spring emerge and be cozy and warm while doing it. Of course you'd be reading a good book too. via

Delightful Cottage Wing
Something much larger was added to the right of this perfect cottage. Don't you love the way the eyebrow windows open upstairs? I think it's perfect as a stand alone dwelling, don't you? via
The Standoff. Cat vs. Dog
Tabitha never misses an opportunity to torture poor Webster. She is sitting in his favorite spot and he's afraid to walk past her. He turned around and made a complete circle from the kitchen to see if his spot was still occupied.
Fortunately, it was available once again. Tabitha was just exercising her power over the world's sweetest dog.
Red Covered Bridge in Sangamon County Illinois
Bridges of Sangamon County By: Javed Rassi
It's easy to understand why this covered bridge over Sugar Creek in Sangamon County Illinois is painted red. It's nice to have a spot of color in a black and white world in the winter.

Cute French Bulldog Puppy
This breed is especially cute in puppyhood, especially when posing on a skateboard. via
Yesterday at My Cottage
What a difference a day makes. Yesterday was picture perfect and today is gray and rainy with a touch of fog. I'm happy there is almost no snow on the roof surfaces and no ice in the gutters of my cottage. I haven't walked to the way back with Webster in ages and I'm anxious to get back to our old routine. Have a great weekend. xo
