It's been a while...

Oh, it's been too long I know. Still settling into the new digs and adjusting to the new location and having a fun, fun time making new friends.

Watch for more posts as I catch up on the blogging business...have lists of ideas.

You have got to shop here...

Whilst driving around in a daze in April trying to find a home, we drove past this place. Turned around to snap this picture, just had to.











Well, it so happens that when I drove past earlier this week , this sign was posted:









Curt, who owns this lovely place is wanting to move closer to his grandchildren. He wants to sell the house and inventory or find someone to run the business. In the meantime, he's selling all this stuff for really cheap! Told him what I was looking for, and he pointed out where I should "go look".

After a guided tour of the place, all I can say is WOW! Incredible house, and does he have the stuff! And it's all sorted, not just piles of junk. And he knows where everything is.

I'd love to own this place, I really would. The courtyard is incredible!

Spring on the Lake

Ahhhhhh! Spring has arrived - the temps are climbing and there's just a bit of a breeze off the lake, just enough to fly a kite. And the asparagus is up. It's so delicious that I've eaten every bit I purchased at the farmers' market on Saturday. Good thing I have a chance for some more at the Wednesday farmers' market, provided I get there early enough.

Busy, busy today upcycling fabrics into totes, purses and credit card/business card pouches. I've taken the plung with my good friend Soozee, we're selling our "stuff" at the local farmers' market. We are both aficianados of all things recycled and upcycled and urban gardening. So we're takin' our gig to the market. I love farmers' markets and all they have to offer.
