Something new....

Just sharing a new arrival in our house -


Not exactly the anniversary (46 years on the 16th) present we might have chosen, but a necessity when the repair bill on the other one was greater than the cost of this replacement!  Smiling while I do the laundry here today!:-)

Does this mean....

....that fall is approaching?


The Burning Bush will be a vibrant red in a couple of months!

Bright and shiny....

....and ready to work on those grapes pictured yesterday!


Our latest kitchen addition, a new food mill replacing the ancient one (45 years old) that had turned rusty!

The first!

I'm happy to share with you today the first grapes harvested from our vines!


Yes, there are some that are still green, but those ripe ones are delicious!

How far....

....do you have to travel to shop at an American Girl store?


I was recently able to have that special shopping experience with City Girl and The Husband!  Truly amazing!  

Munchkin will be surprised!

Welcoming....

....the morning sun!


The perfect spot....

for early morning solitude....


A nice place to revisit this morning, especially when the washing machine won't start, and the clothes are already loaded in it!  More Monday "merriment!"
