Spinach, Peppers, and Swiss Cheese Omelet

My Saturday morning omelet in the making. So yummy and healthy too.

Webster. His first animated GIF.

I am so happy I finally learned how to make a Webster gif. The wonder dog is so worthy, isn't he? He's rolling in clover and loving it. xo

How did I do it? It was very easy. I downloaded the Google Photo app to my iPhone. Then I selected these photos that had a similar background. Then I clicked the + sign on the tool bar and the rest was done for me automatically. So fun! Joanna Stern from the Wall Street Journal has a great tutorial here.

My favorite fabric. This chair looks like the perfect place to curl up with a good book, doesn't it? I hope there is an ottoman somewhere. I love that the owner dragged another chair beside the easy chair to hold all the books because there were fresh flowers on the table. 
We had rain all night but it stopped at daybreak. Enjoy your Sunday whatever you do, inside or outside. xo

Hello Nantucket

Such a nice compound. Looks like the lawn person is there today. We have had an entire week of rainy days and the grass is ready to be cut but I'm waiting for several sunny days first. 

Wonderful Container Garden

Simply beautiful. This gives me some ideas. Must buy a large bag of topsoil when I go to Costco today. via
