Weekend

Sweet Dream
I'll eat my breakfast under morning sun on the patio
and wash my breakfast dishes in this sink.
Look at those tiny subway tiles. They look like chiclets. I want to pop them in my mouth and chew.

I'll nap in the backyard and
eat dinner by candlelight.
Then sleep under a magical green canopy in the back garden.

It's cold here again today....

But, a girl can dream.

Wow, how lovely! I am right there with ya! I can't get over the glass in the kitchen cabinets. *gorgeous*

I am already shopping for new cushions and tablecloths for our deck. I can't wait to move meals outside!

We've had a wonderful week. And now it's cold and rainy. But a girl can dream and remember those good days!

More snow for us but those pics are so inspiring and I feel like spring really is around the corner. Also, everything can be better with fairie lights.

LOVE the PHOTOS!!!!
I'm taking a break from cleaning (waiting on the floor to dry) and I checked in and found NEW inspiration! I had talked myself out of tiling my kitchen but now I HAVE to! AND I'm painting the inside of my cabinets seaglass blue (I think! LOL!) and now I'M dreaming of French doors leading to the backyard! Sigh....
Thanks! XOXO - Cindi

The enchanted home said...

If I could crash in that hammock for the weekend I might be anticipating it a bit more:) Mustering up energy and brain power to go out in an hour for what I know will be a looooong night, hence my mega tall cup of Starbucks.....yes at 6:20 at night. Those pictures are dreamy!

Dearest Nita,

Blogger seems to have a problem with the thumbnail of your (our!) first photo that is not showing on the sidebar of other bloggers... To fix it do the following, as I managed to do and solve it right away (you do this for each new blog and the present one!):

Here we go!

To have the first picture of your blogpost showing as a thumbnail on other blogrolls, you go back into Edit post and click the HTML button, Scroll down until you find the HTML code for the first picture in your post. Within that code you will find, once or twice this:

- https://...googleusercontent.com.

You need to make a couple of modifications, this is what you want -

http://...ggpht.com....

To RECAP https becomes http:/ / and googleusercontent.com becomes ggpht.com

Lots of love,
Bea
