I love to write, but have been hijacked to the Facebook world--HELP!!!! Since I've been spending most of my time between FB and Ancestry.com, my poor blog has been neglected. I'll try to get back into this eventually... *****PS The blog list is at the bottom of the blog*****

My February Kitchen



I am trying to take a picture each month of my kitchen to share the different looks it takes on through the year. Mom and my sister, Shell give me the inspiration to do this fun little tradition we have going in our family.

I remember as we were growing up, Mom had a dark brown corkboard covered wall next to the kitchen where she would put up pictures that went with the seasons and the holidays. She'd keep them in folders and would tac them up each month. It was a sweet touch that helped us all appreciate the specialness of that particular time of year. What a fond memory...



Now we get more into the dishes--from thrift stores and garage sales, of course. We find some pretty good stuff for great deals, so it is doable. Good thing some months use the same color dishes. My Honey let me use a cabinet in the garage for the "dishes in waiting".



My sister's yard sailing buddy found me some blocks to spell words around the house. I was hoping to find an "I", but no worries, I found God...



Isn't is nice to know that even though people come and go, and are up and down, and sometimes don't seem to care, that God is always there loving you... Ahhhhhhhhhhhh...............

  2. You need a few white daisies in that red heart vase thing on your shelf. You've been at it since you got back. Looks real prety in there. Maybe I'll get a few minutes to make things picture worthy before V-day. If I would just stop aching and my nose would stop running!!!
