I Love This Marblehead Kitchen

Marblehead cottage renovation, MA. Molly Frey Design. Eric Roth photo.via

I took this photo yesterday of my mature rosemary topiary that has tree bark on the trunk! It isn't that old either, maybe four years, and I started it from a cutting I rooted in water. It had a few tiny purple blooms over the winter that looked like tiny orchids. I have some of her cuttings rooting right now and I have four with tiny roots that I planted in a pot along with a geranium. I often do this so they can get encouragement from another plant until they harden off. How does your indoor garden grow?

Best.Porch.Ever

Porch season is almost here. Today it's going to be in the 70s but will get cold again with rain for four straight days. Isn't this a fabulous porch? One can only imagine the happy times spent there. via

Blue and White Chairs and Rug

I love this cozy room and especially the fabric on the two easy chairs. So cozy. Nice living room, family room, or library. via

I love this photo found here.

Corner Bookcase to Love

Embrace your corners and fill them with things you love. via It snowed last night and we got about 9 inches but it's melting fast because it's already 41° at noon. Time to go outside and clean off my car after I shovel the walk. See you later. xo
