Christmas Vow

I vow that next Christmas our empty mantel will have stockings.....something like this.



Because I'm obsessed with burlap and lace. Maybe I should have titled my blog Burlap and Lace....hmmmm.

This year our fireplace is naked.....well except for some evergreen garland.

Homeless Wildlife?

We have a neighbor who religiously feeds the various Clifton wildlife at certain times during the day. He also calls them by name "Blue" and "Burt"are the ones we have made out so far...

Today I found some forgotten rolls leftover from Thanksgiving in the breadbox and needless to say I was a little worried when my husband proceeded to take them out to our sun-room, open the window and yell "Caw-Caw" while tossing the rolls out to the forest below. He said instead of tossing them in the garbage, we should feed the "homeless wildlife".

I'm worried there may be something in the water....

Bon Appétit

So last night I watched the movie "Julie and Julia" with my Mom and was pleasantly surprised. Julie Child? Sure...I know who she is, but I've never held any certain kind of fascination with her as I have with other television icons (ah hem...Diane Sawyer). After watching the movie, I went into stalker mode and found myself wanting to know her story and research her history.....who was her husband? were did she live? how tall was she really? I must say...I AM intrigued.....

Also, I would like to mention I've discovered a fondness for Amy Adams...how cute is she?
