it's all about the hospitable home
Hello Dear Readers!
Today I have a bit of “this and that.”
I have truly been trying to scale down some things around the house,
in that, if I start to pack some things away . . . maybe that means we are closer
to getting into the house. Wishful thinking.
When I combined three orchids together (that were originally in their own containers)
into one container, it started that domino effect.
One Thing Leads to Another and a House Update

Hello Dear Readers!
A while ago, when I did a Monday Morning Blooms post,
someone asked what I do with the flowers when I do a “floral vignette”
using several vases and containers of flowers in one setting.
Today, I shall show you what I did with the many flowers and vases that I
presented in the Citrus and Flowers post.
Hello Dear Readers!
It’s been a while (again). Things are moving and shaking around here with many
decisions to make with regard to the new house. Valentine’s Day was momentous in many ways.
Other than spending it with my Loves, we finally broke ground! Did you hear the earth move?
Now on the subject of special things happening, today is very special as it is
the 3rd Monday of the month which means it is Monday Morning Blooms day,
when I and my most wonderful fellow bloomers Lidy, Mary and Pam
will be sharing some great floral inspiration.
Today’s common theme is Citrus and Flowers.
So sit back and enjoy some great floral inspiration!!
