Lovely Wet Bar in A Butler's Pantry

I love the sink, marble countertop and backsplash and especially the faucet. The framed black and white engravings are perfect too. I like everything I see in this Birmingham, Alabama home. via

Have a great weekend!

Sunroom Windows

I have always liked these industrial windows. The roof overhang here is a nice detail for the patio.

I've never heard it before, have you?

Could anything be more beautiful?

I think not.

The Dressing Room in My Cottage

I have photographed this room before but not this view. The table is at the foot of the antique bed. All of the floors in this wing of the cottage are painted this color, the hall and the smaller bedroom where I sleep. That room has no closet. So now you have another small peek into my home. It rained all morning but cleared up nicely by late afternoon. 

I didn't watch Masterpiece last night but recorded it for later in the week. I am on the very last Season of MI-5 and should finish tomorrow. I am going to miss the best espionage thriller I have ever seen. I am so lucky to have such a good library chocked full of DVDs to entertain me. There is almost nothing on regular TV these days that holds my interest. The BBC Video productions have me thoroughly spoiled! See you soon. xo

Breakfast in Bed and Masterpiece on PBS

Not my bed. Not my breakfast.

But I did have a very leisurely Sunday morning with coffee in bed watching MI-5. Now I am ready for a Sunday evening with the Brontë Sisters on PBS.

To Walk Invisible The Brontë Sisters follows the Brontë sisters in the eventful three-year period that saw them rise from ordinary, unmarried women, taking care of the household and their widowed father, to the secret authors of the world’s most sensational literature.

MASTERPIECE brings these remarkable literary geniuses to life with a beautifully filmed and acted two-hour drama, premiering on Sunday, March 26th, 2017 at 9/8c. Enjoy. xo
