I was playing around on Facebook one particular morning while nonetheless in bed, you know, that morning when you are suppose to get up but it is just so comfy, when I came across a timeline photo of a buddy of my lovilee sister’s. I wanted to visit this lovilee location and my mother + I hit the road. We soon found ourselves chatting away with the owners Divan Botha & Jaco De Witt at a trendy coffee shop in Linden even though getting lunch and taking pics.



I get in touch with areas like Whippet “the contemporary office” where you are met with individuals on laptops whilst sipping on some of Whippet’s ice teas in a enormous Consol jars, meetings taking location at the corner table over coffee and stacked goodies, white noise of lunch break gatherings and girls meeting for lunch.

Merry Christmas And A Few Stories

I'm sitting here tonight writing this while sending hubby off for a quart of milk and a bag of Werther's Caramels. I like the soft ones but they weren't available so he picked up a bag of hard creamy caramel filled ones. I just may die from Caramel Overload. Werther's are the best caramels in the world. Oooooh and the fact that I told him to read the label and only bring home the soft ones just flew out the door. These are delicious.

More on Miss Caroline. I told my granddaughter to frequently send me things she does because they live 8 hours away and we can't see her but a couple of times a year. Here's what she sent this past week.

Every night she tries a new ploy to get out of bed. Caroline calls Dad into her room after bedtime.
C: I have an idea. I think there's treasure under my crib. Want to get me out and look for it? (Didn't work.)

Dad is kissing her all over. She's protesting that she's a big girl and he needs to stop. She grabs his face with both hands and looks him in the eye.
C: I'm a big girl. Do. You. Understand?!

Naked toddler running around kitchen demanding skittles.
Mom: We can have skittles but the priority is getting your pajamas on.
C: Priority?! Priority?! I'm scared of priorities!

Mom and Dad having conversation. C holds up hand to us and in the best Valley Girl voice ever says:
Shush! You guys are being soooooo loud!

C is telling Dad about somebody (a friend) being bad and needing to be "written up." Dad writes them up in iPad rather than actual notebook. [This actually gets her to behave if told she's going to be "written up." None of us can figure out why but it works, so whatever works.]
C: That's not a notebook. That's an iPad, you silly man.

Another red and pink bedroom for you. Notice the hanging bed by the window.


Can you tell I love eye candy? I'll always post it...FOREVER!


I love that sweet lamp.


A profusion of tulips!


Your own castle and island. Wowzer.


Cute place mats.


A vintage lunch hamper with French details.


A sweet cottage in the U.K.


I didn't make these but I did make one for each of my great-granddaughters...even prettier than these. ;-)


Another view of European cuteness.


Pretty soaps.

And this sun room also.


Love the floating flowers.


No cars down these streets. :-)
