Tea and a Chat...

Hello my lovelies!

Time for tea and a chat.... 

Join me?

I started a new afghan yesterday. It's a granny square with a little

puffy flower in the middle. The squares are small, so it's going to take

a while. 

I'm a afraid you are going to get tired of brown and beige before the 

thing is done. I might be too! :) But for now, I'm excited about it.

It is supposed to rain this weekend, so I'm hoping to get the house

cleaned up and all my chores done so that I work on this all weekend.

Maybe even put on old episodes of Downton Abbey or Mad Men.

Maybe have dinner in the crock pot? 

Doesn't that sound homey? 

What about you? 

What will you be doing this weekend?

I'm joining in for:

Home Sweet Home

Show and Tell Friday

What's been going on......

I'm sorry! 

I'm really, really sorry! 

I usually do some kind of wrap up after Fresh-Cut Friday 

and thank everyone for visiting and participating. 

Not this week. 

What I mean to say is, that I do appreciate you! 

BUT, this week

I finally gave in,  and had to admit that my trusty little friend, Mac, just wasn't 

going to cut it anymore.  SO! I took my year end bonus and went and got myself

a new Macbook Air. With the help of my hubs, I have been learning it and setting it up to my liking. 

I think I'm pretty happy.  I didn't realize how much time I was spending just 

trying to comment or load some of my favorite blogs.

Ahhhhh... progress. 

If you would like to make a note on your calendar, the next FCF will be May 2nd. 

And just incase your wondering, the flower of the month for May is Lily of the Valley. 

It signifies humility, sweetness and return to happiness.  

Isn't that the a nice thought?

Hearts!

Now I ask you "How perfect is this little mug?"

 I got it at Tuesday Morning a few months back. 

So very glad that they are right around the corner. 

And my husband really is! :)  ha ha

Perfect for tea! 

Oh! P.S. 

Were you wondering if I would do a silly Valentine Mani? 

The answer: Well of course!

Hearts to you!

Grateful, Grateful, Grateful.

Oh, so grateful!

I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend!

It has been such a great holiday vacation. The tree is up

and the house is decorated and the scentsey is 

burning Sentimental Cider. 

Thank you Lord for this beautiful season!

Teacup Exchange

 Sometimes the best way to start a friendship is over a cup of tea.

Don't you think?

That's what Stephani from the Enchanting Rose thinks. 

She is hosting a teacup exchange.

My lovely exchange gift arrived early this week from 

Anne at Stuff and Nonsense

 

  It included some beautiful mix media artwork. The flower on the card is made of hearts

folded in have.  So clever and cute!

The 23rd Psalm (one of my personal favorites)

I love it. Thank you Anne!

To see the rest of the beautiful exchange teacups join

Spring Table Top and Old Stuff

I hope you all had a wonderful Resurrection Sunday. 

We did. Church Service was good: 

The ABC's of Christianity: 

A. Atonement

B. Belief

C. Confess
I love messages that are straight to the point and you walk away the meat of the matter. 

You know what I mean? What about you?

Anyway, we are still sorting thru my Mom and Dad's house. It really does seem to be endless. 

I brought home some old books and took the covers off.  I'm using them in a centerpiece on the dinning room table.

I invested in some new Tea Cups.... Homer Laughlin Chatau. I love them. I'll be using them at the Ladies Tea at our church. 

I'll be joining 

 Table Top Tuesday 

Knick of Time Tuesday
