Tonight I'm Sleeping In A Swinging Bed
It is almost time for bed and I think tonight's the night I'd like to be out on a limb in this bed swing. Wouldn't that be fun? Goodnight. See you in the morning. It's TV time now.

Winding The Yarn With A Helper
I love the antiques in all of Jessie Wilcox Smith's illustrations. These two young girls sitting on early ladderback chairs are concentrating with all their might because when your hands are small tasks like this are very hard. I hope you can find a willing friend to help you with your work today. This is another wonderful illustration that is new to me. How do you wind your yarn?

Field of Crimson Clover
I've never seen crimson clover. I always plant white clover here at the cottage because it's best for the honeybees. I've been told their tongues aren't long enough to get the nectar from the other colors. Bumblebees (see next photo) don't have this problem. This field is absolutely beautiful, isn't it? Wonder where it's located?

Isn't this macro photo of dandelion seeds absolutely amazing? Mother nature really is quite the designer, isn't she?

In Paris, Everything Looks Like Dessert
Pastry | Paris will take you to the most delightful short movie with great photography and music about living in Paris for one year and falling in love with the pastries. My friend Jill is going there next week. She found this film by Susan Hochbaum on the Girls' Guide To Paris.com in the dining section. Please don't fail to watch it; you'll be happy you did. Thanks Jill.
