Libraries are Full of Friends
Watercolor and Pencil
Artist: L. Block (British, 1848-1901)
Title: "In a library we are surrounded by friends."
Another Black Cat with Marble Eyes
This is the window in my walk-in pantry where I have an old drafting table as a desk. I am having so much fun with the camera on my phone. I just about fell over when the lady at the AT&T store gave me $200 for my old phone so this one ended up being free. Well, not really. It could have been free but I upgraded to the 32GB for more storage for an extra $100. If I had stayed with 16GB like my old 4S, it would have been an even trade. It pays to take care of your devices, doesn't it?
This vintage full-bodied tin cat is supposed to be a garden ornament to scare away the birds. It has cat's-eye marble eyes. The cat head at my front door has clear marbles for its eyes. I prefer to use both cats inside as a window decorations since I love my birds. Happy Halloween. I hope you get lots of good candy. I'll have to buy my own and I just might do that. My malware warning went away and I'm so happy! both photos are mine, using iPhone 5S

Halloween Window at My Cottage
Tabitha came along just at the right time to get in this photo. I got a handmade Halloween card from my friend Victoria (The Queen Vee in the comments section) and she enclosed the spider cutouts which are perfect around my tin cat cutout with the marble eyes. I took this photo with my new iPhone 5S which I got today.
If you are using the Chrome browser, you will be blocked from viewing my blog because of a Malware warning. Switch browsers and you will be fine. You can also click proceed and nothing will happen to your computer. I get it myself when using Chrome but have no problem at all when I switch to Safari or when I use Windows on my PC upstairs. Apparently I have a link somewhere on my blog to a person who has a problem and for that reason Chrome is blocking me. It could be anywhere and I'm tired of looking. I have had this problem in the past and the warning eventually went away when a person who follows my blog cleared up her problem. I hope it goes away soon. Just be advised that I don't have any issues here. I think I'm going to stop putting links in my blog. I'll just name the photo source without any links. Sorry. I don't know what else to do. Boo Hoo.

Beautiful Fall Leaves
I've been picking up beautiful leaves when I walk Webster each day and pressing them. Do you think these hearts were cut by hand or with a punch? Aren't they beautiful? Have a great day and I'll see you later. xo

Dutch Door in A Window Wall
This is fabulous. Love the big sidelights and transom windows over this wonderful wainscot paneled Dutch door. Oh, my, such a nice entrance hall. via
Perfect Living Room
Yes. This room reflects my taste perfectly. Unfortunately, there will never be a white sofa in my future because of Webster and Tabitha and Webster's friends who have sleep overs from time to time. I haven't had a fire yet but this photo makes me want to have one soon. The mantel is lovely and so is the built-in bookcase full of antiquarian books and antique smalls. Love the whole room. via the virtual builder
