Our porches are in full use.  And I can’t tell you how happy that makes me.  The weather has been excellent here in Ohio for outdoor living.  I briefly mentioned before that normally, we don’t plant annuals and hang ferns until Mother’s Day.  But the two week forecast was so good that our flowers have […]

Wow… what a whirlwind that last couple of weeks have been.  We have been getting all of our outdoor spaces spruced up for summer.  What is so funny is that today is May 10.  We have had such great weather here in Ohio this spring that we got everything cleaned and planted a lot sooner […]

I recently shared a video of a spring kitchen refresh on Instagram and TikTok, which I will be sharing here soon.  In that spring kitchen refresh, I added some rabbit prints into the new look.  I have had these prints since last year but I love them. They look vintage. One of the most asked […]
