Young Kitchen Helper

I though I'd end the day with this fabulous image of a young helper in a fabulous open-ended kitchen. I had a great day today...hope you did too. Goodnight.

Beautiful Library in Baltimore

I go to the Morristown or Madison libraries at least once a week. A brand new library just opened in Harding Township; the ribbon cutting was Friday and I forgot all about it. It is beautiful and was built with private funds. Many local residents were opposed but I think they will be thrilled with it even if their taxes go up a tiny bit.

The lovely old Morristown library has been closed for two weeks because of an underground explosion that blew out some doors, windows, and an 8' thick hole in the basement ceiling. There have been various manhole cover explosions throughout the downtown Morristown vicinity and JCP&L can't identify the problem. Luckily one of the librarians saw the smoke in the street early on that Monday morning and the library was evacuated before opening bell for the public. The authorities say the violent explosion would likely have resulted in fatalities. I was one of the last customers on the previous day. I had to return my mother's audio tapes to Madison yesterday.

Busy day ahead with the open house for my new listing. Have a great Sunday and I'll see you much later.

Great Soaking Tub

I really like this country bath, don't you? I'm especially in love with the simple shelf design. What a great look. I'm going to wait until tomorrow morning for my hot bath so I'll be squeeky clean for my Open House. Wish me luck. I have a vintage Kohler corner tub from the 1930s that is original to my cottage. The Duchess of Windsor had the same one. Really. One day I'll post a picture of hers.

Dogs Never Need A Vacation

This certainly is true for my dog Webster who is thrilled by a short ride in the car to go to the post office around the corner. If we stop at the bank and get a biscuit he's over the moon. Dogs can teach us so much, can't they? Have a great weekend. It's is going to be wonderful weather today and tomorrow in my neck of the woods. Hope you can say the same.
