Good morning! Happy Friday, happy weekend and happy almost Spring!

So many wonderful sights and stories in my favorite blogs this week it was hard to pick just my favorites, but I think you will enjoy these posts. 

If you are a murder mystery fan, you can order Cara Blacks Murder in Monparness and also register to win a trip to Paris! Follow this link for information, Here

If you would like to imagine a weekend away in the City of Love, then visit Dust Jacket.

Are a fan of hotel silver and hotel ware? Than take a look at the interesting finds from Splendid Market this week.

Or perhaps you would love to read the “Impossible Dreams” of many fabulous bloggers that join Marsha at Spelderosa once a month for her By Invitation Only Link Party. One of my favorites was the life of Cocoa Chanel written by Sharon at My French Country Home.

I also loved the post, “Use Your Good Stuff by For the Love of a House, a gentle reminder that everyday is special. 

Do you have any favorite blog posts this week? As you know I love to learn about new blogs, recipes, books are more so do share.

I hope you have a wonderful weekend!

This is how I feel tonight, as if I am seeing life This is how I feel tonight, as if I am seeing life through the blur of tears and sorrow. Sunday night my friend of 34 years lost her husband of 36 years, because of Covid he did not get to meet or hold his newborn grandson. Then just an hour ago we received a call that my husbands best friend died of a massive heart attack this morning. Sometimes life just knocks you to your knees and all you can do is pray for the  loved ones you’ve lost, cherish their memories and let your time with them sustain you until you meet again. Then you ask God for the strength to get up and move forward. #life #loss #givemestrength #givemestrengthlord #pray
Although I see signs of spring, a daffodil popping Although I see signs of spring, a daffodil popping up from the ground, bright and colorful flowers in the garden center the weather and the calendar tell me otherwise. So I am hunkering down and taking solace inside enjoying the details of a collected home and life. This tapestry is a piece that we purchased over 25 years ago in Paris, it hang in the dining room and makes me smile every time I see it because it reminds me of such a happy and beautiful place. What do you collect? What brings you joy in your home? #collectedhome #collectedlook #homedecor #myhome #homesweethome #interiordesign #frenchprovincial #france #frenchdecor #tapestry #instahome #instahomedecor #acolectedlife #collection
Good afternoon friends, it’s a frigid day here. Good afternoon friends, it’s a frigid day here. How is it in your “neck of the woods?” We took a long road-trip a few weeks ago to the beautiful @colonialwmsburg . I love this place, there is so much to see and do and even wearing masks and social distancing you can still enjoy the history and the beauty of this living museum. Today I am home doing the weekend chores, and of course doing a little baking. I hope that you have a fabulous weekend. #colonialwilliamsburg #williamsburg #colonialhouse #livinghistory #livinghistorymuseum #museum #winterfun #roadtrip #wanderlust #weekend #weekendvibes #weekendmood

This has been a strange winter and I am sure that for the 4 million people without power in19 states they are hoping spring is sooner rather than later. I hope that you are all well and keeping safe.
