Love this Lamp

This lamp on a library table is perfect, isn't it. Plenty of light and no glare. Do want!! via

Dining Room with Butler's Pantry

I have always loved a good butler's pantry even without the butler. It's such a great decompression room between the kitchen and the dining room with special places for the finer dishes, glassware and serving pieces. Most of them have dishwashers and sinks so they can be used for flower arranging too. This one has a wet bar and it's all set up for the holidays. via

Beautiful Seascape

Feeding the Birds = Feeding the Bear

I will not be feeding the birds this year. I actually stopped several years ago because the seeds were bringing mice. I'm especially concerned this year having seen evidence of a bear on my own property. These photos have convinced me I am making the right choice.

Great TV, Sun, Reading Room

I am looking forward to Madam Secretary, The Good Wife and Masterpiece Contemporary tonight. I'm sure I won't be able to watch them all but I'll try! Have a good evening. via xo

Old Home to Be Demolished by Buyer

I've always loved this circa 1806 house. It's not visible from the road so most people in the area won't even miss it when it's torn down but I will. I had to drive by one more time to memorialize it and preserve my memory. I'm very sad that the new owner has chosen this path. Such a sad conclusion for what could have been a wonderful restoration. I'm glad it wasn't my listing.
