Thursday, September 30In my younger days, my room mate and I used to spend our Saturday going to thrift stores. We enjoyed sorting through all the treasures. Ya just never knew what you were going to find. At the time I was really into vintage hats. Y’all remember those youthful days of looking for just the right “thing” that was going to se you apart as being uniquely you! I loved finding a vintage hat.

Well I was digging around in my closet the other day and came across these boxes. Inside were all the vintage hat that I had saved. I am contemplated maybe doing a shadow box with some of them an hanging it on the wall in my newly cleaned out sitting room. This all hinges on finding the appropriate shadow box on sale for a ridiculous clearanced out price at the Hobby Lobby. I’m just saying!

The beginnings of painting number 2!

It’s that time again. Or for me it that time for the very first time. When the son was coming around he wanted nothing to do with the rights of passage such as Homecoming dances so at the most I had to shop for a black sport coat which he was probably not going to wear any way.

Now it is a whole different ball game.

With the BFF in tow we made a stop at Kohl's on Saturday afternoon. After a dozen or more dresses this one made the final cut, however we found a rather large stain on front so it got put back on the rack.

The DD has shopped for new make up and is making critical decision such as curly or straight, heels or flats, earrings and other homecoming related issues. All was not lost as we made a stop at an exclusive boutique Called Skoots1mom Daughter’s Closet and thankfully found the perfect dress. Now all we need are the shoes! Since we did not have to lay out any cash for the dress there may be a mani-pedi in the near future as well!

After shopping I had to make a stop at the grocery story and low and behold I just love it when my four favorite words show up in the meat section. Four packages of baby Back Ribs and a T Bone Steak!

Well For today I will refrain from whining about missing a day or three and just forge ahead!

Great dress find! Our granddaughter wore her mother's prom dress and it was an absolute success.
Love those vintage hats. I think they'd look great just hanging on the wall.
Have fun with the painting!

Mmmmm...Panera.

Love, love, love the vintage hats. Here's hoping for that "ridiculous clearanced out price at the Hobby Lobby"! I think you've got a great idea!

Homecoming. How fun!

Love those hats! I have a couple of my grandmother's vintage ones too (if she were alive she might bristle at the word "vintage" since she bought them new!).

Can't wait to see a pic of the "homecoming queen" in her final glory (that didn't sound right - I mean in the dress she ended up wearing LOL).

I remember going to a tea shop in Atlanta back in 2003. When you went in they had each lady pick a vintage hat from the several baskets of hats they had on hand, so we could properly appreciate the whole high tea experience :) It was so fun! I have collected a few myself... down the road I'd love to have a ladies tea and do something similar! Now there's an idea for you, Robin! Throw a proper ladies tea :)

Oh, the bread at Panera. I drool thinking about their cinnamon crunch bagels. *sigh* Adding to my list of foods to eat while in the states :)

Announcing the “I won…You Win Giveaway!!!”

Several weeks ago I was the lucky winner of a book giveaway from Mocha with Linda . Click here to read her post about this book! As I finished the book up the other day I began to think about the two women the story centers around. The story begins with two pen pals in elementary school and they continue with there friendship for many, many years through letters and emails, but they have never actually met, not until things change for the main character. Her life takes an unexpected turn and she finds herself face to face with her long time pen pal. I began to think of the similarities between the two women in the book and all of you, my fellow bloggers. As members of this unique internet community we enter into each other lives as we read each others posts, as we comment, share encouraging words or just a well needed giggle now and then. But what I enjoyed as I read this book was the depiction of the friendship these two women shared. They had been intimately involved...

Project 365 ~ Week 12 ~ It was a Muffinhead kinda week…..

Sunday, March 13   Monday, March 14 This is coming up in the herb garden. My sweet furry family member decided it was his greatest joy to pull almost all my plant labels out of the ground and use them for chew toys.  I think this is marjoram but I am not sure. Tuesday, March 15 Click on the link Southern Eggs En Cocotte for the recipe. It was real good y’all!   No pictures on Wednesday, March 16 Thursday, March 17 Can you tell who was at my house all day?   I guess she figured since her toys were scattered all over the floor that she would join them. She laid down sprawl-eagle and did the back stroke for several minutes then switched to rolling from tummy to back all the way into the living room!   Friday, March 18 Today was cake decorating day. Click here to see the start to finish. Saturday, March 19 Today was Muffinhead’s birthday party at a local park! The sun was shinning and the weather was beautiful and a good time was had by all...
