Fireflies!!

There is so much beauty in Western Washington that it can overwhelm the mind. Sometimes, though, I miss interacting with the intriguing fireflies I grew up with on the East Coast. Thinking of their tiny glow brings me back to sticky summer nights, my grandmother (Babcia) serving lemonade on a New York Brownstone porch and the cacophony of laughter of family and friends. I was more than thrilled to open up an email to find that I had been included in an Etsy Treasury full of firefly beauty. I hope that you will enjoy it as much as I have! Thank you Susan Najarian!

the Art of Life

This week has been crazy busy (just the way I like it). So much to do before my guests from Europe arrive, then family shortly after. The sun has finally been shining (quite brightly I may add) and it all adds up to a wonderfully fabulous week!
I just thought this photo was brilliant!



I am going to try this one day. My husband will probably admit me afterwards.


There is so much beauty to see in the everyday things!
May your day be filled with them.
