A SIMPLE ANSWER..................................
Lately I have been questioning the purpose of doing this blog, beside sharing ideas and projects....I mean, does it really matters? Does anyone get something of value out of my ramblings? You know, that kind of ruminating......Then, BINGO! The answer comes through a multitude of comments that validate my initial concept in spades. Thanks so much for giving me the simple answer I needed.

When you are a house cat life is so EASY! You play, you eat, you sleep.....................
in baskets................................... on the furniture
......................or on the floor...............................basically, anywhere you want! Hmmm.....Just noticed how fat my kitties are getting....must be all that good tuna and catnip treats......
...............sometime we watch the lizards go by......................and wonder what it's like out there............but we are not allowed outside.........too many bad snakes, raccoons and.....alligators...............after all, this is Florida........................
I am in the last few days of editing Romantic Country so I have not done much of anything else. Except taking a trip to the garden center to see what new plants I can add to the garden. I always wanted a magnolia tree. I saw quite a few (in bloom) but they were all way too big for me to plant. Fortunately the nursery will be getting more next week and they will be a size I can manage. My biggest problem is to be able to dig a big enough hole since the sunny spot where I want to plant it has more tightly packed gravel than soil. In the meantime, the nice fellow at the garden center gave me a lovely bloom to take home..............it smells so lemony-sweet.... and it's so soft and gorgeous...........
On the way home I stopped at the grocery store and ended up getting cigarettes (no lecture please.....I know.... if the rattle snake won't get me the cigies will....or maybe I'll get hit by a car! Who knows?), coffee and......white tulips.................I won't get fat on that diet!
......if you look closely you will see how the edge of the petals look like lace...........I had never seen these before............very delicate and romantic...........................
Speaking of romantic, I received these 3 stunning French crystals from ROBERTA
............they hang from the kitchen chandelier........Thank you Roberta!
Of course that prompted me to take a look around the house and take a few photos of some of my favorite things.............................like anything made from wire.....................
..from a funny looking 3 level "thing" found in California. little houses and a cage from Florida..
......an old frame with chicken wire from France, a little metal mannequin perfect for hanging necklaces......
.....and a wire one also very useful for some of may baubles......and plenty of little and big baskets...........................................
............................a decorative tea pot........................................
................and cloches.........................................................
.....and, of course, the Eiffel tower!
So, this is it for today...........................................................................
......................Here is to all you princesses out there.........................
Thinking of you...................xoxoxoxo Fifi
