Hello everyone, It looks like Christmas here already both indoors and out as I have been focused on decorating for Christmas so we can relax and enjoy it all. My granddaughter painted the wooden house on the left for me as it was gold and brown before. The one in the middle came from a new shop at the North River causeway  called Cottage Living. The little one on the left was from Homesense. You can see the white stuff out the window!                                                     Yesterday, I decorated our library                                                                 so whenever we get a brighter day                       ...

Hello everyone, With the snowy weather we have had here lately it is easy to turn my thoughts toward Christmas/winter. So my tea time today is in our little sun room where I can enjoy the snowy scene outdoors. I am enjoying Holiday Chai tea today with my oatmeal scone an a healthy apple. The cute mitten cookies are way to pretty to eat though.                                                                Are you getting into the holiday                                                                mood yet?                       A wintry shot of the garden outside the               ...

Happy weekend! I hope you are enjoying your weekend so far. We just had our second snowfall in four days    and it is already a winter wonderland outdoors.   But indoors my tea time is a pastel aqua theme       with crumpets (buttermilk biscuits) and chai tea. Love raspberry tea with warm biscuits.                                                                       Aqua and gold teacup. The pretty aqua pedestal plate was a gift from a friend. Couldn't resist a little Christmas aqua touch. Help yourself !                                                        And just a little peek at our world today!             ...

Hello everyone, It seems like winter has arrived early this year as the temperature has dropped and we had a surprise snowfall accumulation that has stayed and more on the way tomorrow. So, I am enjoying a cozy tea by the fireside. I confess I have already started to    decorate for Christmas in our family room as I love the coziness of the      Christmas lights on these chilly long  evenings.                                                                      My red and white transferware                                                                      is a favorite all year but especially     ...

                                                                      Hello everyone,                                                  I was home alone at lunch time today                                                  so I made up a tray to take to the sun room                                                  to enjoy my lunch.                                  ...

                 Hello everyone,                       I mentioned earlier that I had more photos that I wanted to     share from our recent trip to Quebec .                         The photo above is my husband walking down the sidewalk in               a little village on the Isle d' Orleans. The colorful umbrellas where in Lower Quebec. I love how they decorate so creatively for every season. I would love to go back in the summer next time as we haven't been there in summer for several years.       The windowboxes are always enchanting. More window boxes on the shops.                                                         ...
