We've had a lot of rain in the northeast and the last few night the temp was in the 40s. Crazy weather. Stay cool.

I love the idea of a grouping of paintings of women.<br /><br />You must know how much I love seeing the interior shots of Plum Cottage. I love the details. :)<br /><br />Of course your flowers are ALWAYS beautiful. After a week of wonderfully moderate (even cool) weather we enjoyed in KY, we came home to humidity and heat. We got in a walk in a nearby woods, but just in time! The heat has definitely settled in.Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08740950362293427086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5353873250655389819.post-82712693129975722382016-06-10T13:42:04.490-04:002016-06-10T13:42:04.490-04:00Your plum cottage is just charming!

We needed the rain and were grateful for it. <br /><br />I love it that you don't like matching bed linens! I bet I have 5 different patterns all at once on mine. Some people look at it a little strangely when they see my bed but I love it. <br /><br />I had been the caretaker of my children's teddy bears ever since they left home. In our recent move I told them it was time for them to treasure them.

We finally stopped raining here in Texas and the sun is heating us up to summer like days now.<br />Enjoyed seeing the pretty rooms in your cottage. I simply love your hearts with the gorgeous crocheted edging. Just beautiful.<br />I love the granny square throw too. I have one my mother made years ago in a twin bed size for my son's bed when he was a toddler. She used brown in place of the black and it was so pretty. I still have it and bring it out now and then in the winter.<br />Love your floral sheets. I look for them too but lately not had any luck.<br />Your garden blooms are so pretty. Have a nice evening.

My Father-in-law lived in Florida after his retirement and we visited a few times before he passed (a long trip from WA state). The weather would sometimes change suddenly and once we were sitting on outdoor tables at a restaurant and a bolt of lightning came right down and hit a little nail behind our table. My ears rang for weeks! Love your beautiful beaded heart. The crochet edge is very pretty. Also love taking little tours around your sweet cottage. So many lovely memories and you have a special gift for making everything so cozy. I have a soft spot for pretty flowered sheets, too. Love your summery decorating and seeing your beautiful gardens. Hope things settle down for you weather-wise. Take care, hugs xo KarenKaren @ Beatrice Euphemiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08631972741518142563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5353873250655389819.post-20234211604867422842016-06-08T14:07:03.614-04:002016-06-08T14:07:03.614-04:00You were the first person to think of when they an...You were the first person to think of when they announced the storm. The other two people who now live there in the winter are across the street right now enjoying Iowa weather. It is fun to change things around. I find that things can be in a rut if I don't move things and place new things out on display. L.

I love stuffed animals too and can't bear to part with special ones that have been given to me over the years. Mostly I have packed them away except for one long legged leopard that my grandson gave me when he was about 5. Back then he put a sticker on it's tummy and told me it was it's tattoo. Thanks for bringing that memory to mind and a smile to my face.<br />Much love, CarolCarol- Beads and Birdshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11062821517519300477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5353873250655389819.post-85679694182522139632016-06-08T02:15:24.661-04:002016-06-08T02:15:24.661-04:00so glad Colin didn't hit hard there, it also p...so glad Colin didn't hit hard there, it also pretty much passed us by as well.......we just got some rain and that is good for all our plants and the seeds I have coming up.Enjoyed all the pictures.
