Gorgeous Photo

Wow. It's got Christmas Colors of Red and Green. via

Boxwood Garden with Vegetables

I love this low hedge which defines the planting area. via The whole side yard appears to be a kitchen garden. I hope that side door opens to the kitchen for easy harvesting.

A Hot Radiator is a Beautiful Thing


Tabitha is becoming quite the expert at finding all the warm places in our cottage. When I woke up this morning she was in my bed. When she came in from the rain after breakfast, she warmed herself in front of the refrigerator. I guess the fan must exhaust warm air at floor level. After she defrosted, she jumped up on this chair in the kitchen and there she will sleep until she gets hungry again. I added the decorations and text with PicMonkey, my favorite free photo editing app on my computer. See you later. xo

Sheep in the Snow

I love their white smiling faces and pink noses. I had a pretty productive day today and hope you did too. Tucking in pretty soon to watch some recorded programs. xo

Great Powder Room

I like the framing of the mirror that also acts as a backsplash for the vanity and wide mounts for the sconces. Actually, I like it all. Designed by Catalano Architects. Image found here.

My Kitchen, A Larger View

Now you can see the scale of my little Christmas scene on my kitchen counter. It really doesn't interfere with food preparation at all. Enjoy your Sunday. xo

Christmas Decor on My Kitchen Counter

Built around a favorite card. An old ironstone platter is the background to hide the electrical outlet.
