The Reading Room

I would have to sit in this unusual chair first before giving it my leal of approval. I would probably trade it for a comfy armchair and ottoman. via Amanda Patterson

BROADCHURCH tonight, Episode 3

View a trailer for tonight's episode 3 here. Thankfully I have FiOS and can watch this BBC America series "on demand" whenever the mood strikes me. I watched Episode 2 again this morning and saw things I missed when I watched it "live" last Wednesday at 10pm. That's not my finest hour and sometimes I find myself dozing off. I look forward to this weekly series because the acting is so good and the story is fascinating. In other words, I'm hooked.

Door for A Walled Garden

How lovely is this garden gate/door with a round opening? I like what I see of the walled courtyard too. I have someone coming later this morning to give me an estimate on painting and repairing my cottage. I love the color of this door and am considering going "dark" or "all white". I'm leaning towards dark because my cottage is near the road and next to deep woods. Road dirt and mildew would be less visible on a darker color. Will update you later. Have a great day. xo via
