Saint Malo, France

Before I turn off my computer for the night, I though it would be nice to visit Saint Malo, France. I'll definitely have sweet dreams after seeing this lovely photo. Love the sun rays. Goodnight.

Easy Chair Covers Made From Dish Towels

Don't you absolutely love this idea? I have two bistro chairs and I think I'll make covers for their backs out of some pretty dish towels that are too nice to use for drying dishes. So beautiful and so easy too. Wouldn't you like to be invited to this picnic?

Reading In The Attic Of A Cottage

I could almost do this but Webster would have to move. I think I'll go downstairs to finish my wonderful book. See you later. Rosemary

Tulips Standing At Attention

What a riot of color. These tulips look like soldiers standing at attention. Hope you have a happy spring day. It's still cool and rainy at my cottage.

Acorn Drawer Pull

I love acorns and oak leaves in any form. I have an antique sewing table with these wonderful brass pulls.

The Beekeeper's Apprentice

The Beekeeper's Apprentice by Laurie R. King. (The author has a great website.) A novel of suspense featuring Mary Russell and Sherlock Holmes. This is the page-turning mystery I'm reading today. It's soooooo good.

I took a little break to whip up two batches of homemade yogurt. I scanned the book cover to share. Highly recommended. Back to reading now. Later, Rosemary

A River Of Blue Flowers

Isn't this river of blue flowers beautiful? I'm engrossed in a good book and it's raining hard outside so I'm seizing the day. My taxes are finished and I deserve some time off. Later, Rosemary

Monday Kitchen Love


I love everything about this kitchen, the white subway tiles, the white cabinets, the gray granite, the gray and white checkerboard floor, the stainless appliances, the artwork, the blinds, absolutely everything. I especially like the cabinet above the sink with side cutouts resembling an antique hanging cupboard. This is absolute perfection in my book.
