My photo
I'm just a fan. A new fan. I'm restless, always looking for something new to see, learn and do. My lastest thing is NASCAR. It Happened when I drove a "Richard Petty Experience" car during the week of the 50th running of the Daytona 500.

my first quiz...

I just took my first quiz on the internet! Gosh, I hope I pass! I haven't taken a quiz in over 35 years, no lie, really! I suffer from the "Red Pen" syndrome.

I was lookin' for a recipe for Bread Pudding to take to a dinner party tonight. I decided to mosey over to Ree's site, The Pioneer Woman, to see if she had anything that sounded good, her photo's alone make the recipe look great! I'm going to give her's a shot.

I forgot what the purpose of this was, oh yeah, I remember now, the quiz. The "Smartypants" Qualifying Quiz #1 to be exact. I thought what the heck, I pay a large cable bill every month to get well over 325 channels, I'm bound to have picked up some knowledge through osmosis and channel surfing, it's not like I've ever been to any of these places. Maybe she'll grade on a curve, we'll see. Wish me luck.

Remember the squirrels in my yard...

It's Bot Fly season

EICHLER...MY NEW FOUND LOVE

Ok, Eichleresque. My husband was putting in a pool at this house, then ended up doing the remodel on the house, too. It's located in Orlando.

He knows I love Mid-Century Modern. With my camera in hand I toured this house and now I want him to build me one just like it! I truly LOVE the pink & blue bathrooms. There's also a couple of other pics of homes on the same street.

The original owners stopped by one day and gave us a little background. They had it built in 1958.

Can we say...IKEA! I will try and get some new pics now that the renovation is complete.

Fought the new "Black Friday" crowd and found these...



I found these great looking coasters at Anthropologie. I'm not going to use them as coasters; instead they'll be admired as 4" squares of beautiful art!
