Carnations

I forgot how much I love Carnations.
One color is more beautiful than the next
The fragrance is subtle
The enjoyment  
endless

My choice this week 
~~Creamy white and apricot~~

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!


In our early marriage I could never cook corned beef like his mom 
Hers was delicious. 
I'll never know what I was doing wrong but magically somehow it turns out fine now. 
But in the mean time we switched to Reuben Sandwiches instead. 
We love, love, love them so that’s our standard to this day  
I’m so looking forward to dinner tonite….
alot!
 Add a side of friend Chris' wonderful homemade dressing to dip it in and voila' 
~perfection~

Also a  nod to my husband’s ancestors from County Cork in Ireland.

David Austin Roses

I'm not entirely sure what prompted to sign up for emails from David Austin Roses 
but I'm so glad I did. 
It's one of those little things that make me close my eyes and smile and 
imagine the fragrances in the air..
I have absolutely no luck growing roses 
but it is such a sweet pleasure to see what someone
else can accomplish.  This is just a small sampling
of  what's available.

Enjoy!
