    What fun May Day inspirations! I love the vintage images. I made some May baskets using peat pots with my 4 year old grandson. He had a great time delivering them! Happy May Day! sandy

    Happy May to you too, Donna and Spenser. This is my favorite time of year --- because --- the flowers are blooming and nature it at its beautiful best!

"We wish you a Merry Christmas, we wish you a Merry Christmas, we wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!" Mom was the first to get this set of “Cup of Christmas Tea” teacup and teapot. She received them many years ago by a friend in California, Dayna Esquivel. When we moved out here to the country, Mom and I began enjoying tea together in the afternoons. That Christmas Mom found another set of “Christmas Tea” teacups and teapot and purchased them for me! We always get these teacups out at Christmas and sip tea out of them on a regular basis.
