I saw this sign recently; and, I thought that it describes my marriage to Lowell perfectly. On the 24th of May, we celebrated 22 years of marriage. Prior to that, we “went steady” for four and a half years. So, for the last 26 1/2 years, he’s been my man. We were in high school [...]

Harvest Lane Cottage
I have a new handmade crocheted cotton dishcloth in my shop.
I’ve been busy making items to sell in my little cottage business.
I just love hand crocheted dishcloths!
There’s just something so old fashioned and homey about them.
I offer these cloths in unbleached natural cotton as well.
I’ll add photos soon.
In the meantime, leave a comment [...]

I invite you to visit a new blog I’ve found this morning. It’s called Cottage Remnant. I read her post about finding God’s Will for her life. I thought it was insightful and thought that you might like to read it, also.
Enjoy!

Happy at Home

Hello Friends,
I’ve noticed lately that a couple of my friends are using the phrase, “I’m a user not a collector.” Many of us who like to scrapbook, whether it be Creative Memories or an eclectic style, like to collect supplies. There’s always a new set of paper that would be just right, a cute sheet [...]

“It is preoccupation with possessions, more than anything else, that prevents us from living freely and nobly.” ~Thoreau
How true!
I watch one television show weekly, Extreme Makeover, Home Edition. Last night they did a two hour special In New Orleans. They built a house and a church. They also showed pictures of the widespread devastation that still calls [...]

Where does your family gather? Your friends? What can we do to make our homes the gathering place? I’ve been thinking about this. We don’t have a lot of “latest greatest” type toys or equipment at our house. We do however have games, a basketball and goal, a baseball and bat, a trampoline, and lots [...]

I want to invite you to read my Lowell’s new blog. He’s the editor of the Kingdom Business Journal. Now, before you just shut me out and click out of here, think of this. Lots of times, the things that business people read, study and write can be interesting, motivational, and helpful in real life, [...]

I had great fun going garage “saling” last Friday and Saturday. It was our City Wide Garage Sale. I found a wonderful dark red sign, lettered in white, that I really liked on Friday night. It said, “Always Kiss Me Goodnight” .
Buying that sign, in the country primitive style I love, and buying a second [...]
