hello gorgeous

I love this floral Gucci print.  

Here you see it on the 
back of a beautiful magazine.  
I would just love to wear this blouse.  I believe
that this Gucci print last circulated in the 19880's. 

Good morning Spring time

It's always nice to have fresh flowers in the house.
What's better? 
A pot of flowers right on the kitchen window ledge.


Then, i don't forget to water them! 

I love this song

Birthday, birthday, birthday.
My friend VE is celebrating her
birthday today.

also a very special
young lady and lad celebrate
their big days today.
Neither of the young'uns
will appreciate the following video,
however i'm quite certain it will
make them get up and Dance.

Nancy Sinatra brings this Sassy song
to get us all dancing around.
And of course, this also brings us to footwear.
We All Need to think about Shoes and Boots.

but of course.





I love, love love this song.

joys of springtime

Some of the lilacs that i have the
pleasure of viewing,
in the back garden . . .

Easter Flowers

hello, Easter bouquet.

I love the rich hue of
these blossoms.
I have no idea what they're called.

I couldn't resist when i saw them
in the shop. And to be
entirely truthful, the price was right.
The blooms were all
tightly closed when i brought them home.
i think these flowers
look so magical yet surreal.
to me, they
look like flowers from a painting.
I thought it fitting they sit in
front of my painting.

Mondays are for Birthdays

Monday: but not
just any Monday.. .
Happy Birthday Monday to a special
friend. One who may be knitting today.
(well, we can hope).
Happy Birthday to Mona !

dotty orchid needs a drink

time to water the plants.
Must not forget again this week.

I'm in the mood to try knitting
with some linen. Have you ever tried that?
Hmm. maybe after i've tried it
i'll be the one complaining that
it's stiff . but i won't know
if i don't try it for myself.
