4th of July Fireworks Floral Arrangement

 Hello there!  How is it going?  Are you preparing for the 4th of July?  We have plans to go to our cottage on Cape Cod, but the weather is being difficult, and the fireworks displays have been postponed until Labor Day.  What gives with that?  We will find a way to have fun no matter what.  Hope you do to!!!  

In the spirit of the 4th of July, this week I created a red, white and blue arrangement with "fireworks" and all!

The Dining Room as Is, Warts and All

 Hi all!  Since getting away from blogging during the long process of moving last December, I am finding it very difficult to find the time and the discipline to consistently blog again.  Moving closer to my children and grandchildren is absolutely what I wanted and has been a joy but, finding time for the things I used to spend so much time doing has been hard :).  Hence, the reason for such a long delay since my last post.  All is good but, I am working hard to find my place in the new world that I and my husband are trying to create.  Blogging and what to do with my business is part of all of that but, I am certain I will get there.  I hope you will be patient and take the journey with me.
