It's an absolutely beautiful Saturday morning here. Sunny and crisp outside. Quiet and peaceful inside.
Hubby's gone to play a round of golf. Son No. 3 is still in bed.
And I have a new stack of reading material.
Romantic Homes. One of my favorites of all the "romantic" decor style magazines.
At first I was going to take my cup of vanilla biscotti coffee and the pile of new mags outside on the deck, but it was still just a bit too nippy. So, I decided I'd venture off to a place I rarely visit . . . well, rarely visit for the purposes of relaxing, that is.
The living room or sitting room.
Off I went.
I plopped into one of the soft, oversized chairs, threw my feet up on the ottoman, and got lost for a while within the pages of all that new inspiration.

And, yes, that's a tattoo on my ankle. That was my "turning-40-midlife-crisis-I-need-to-do-something-crazy" moment. |
Joy! The new issue of Country French.
Always a great source for cute and quick paper crafting ideas.
Oh be still my heart . . . the new PB and Ballard catalogs. Well, not fresh off the presses, but they've been in my mail basket for a while and I'm just now getting to them.
What a nice way to start out the day.
Why don't I come in here more often?
Thanks for visiting!
Leave a comment so I can get to know you.
I just finished looking through that new Country French magazine, Carla. Yesterday I did my subscriptions for Romantic Home and Romantic Country. I put that off until we had moved because I know they wouldn't have made it from NY to Ohio! It sounds like you had some good "me time".
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great way to spend the morning.
ReplyDeleteI too love to read over magazines, get inspired and relax.
Have a great weekend!
Ahh I feel so relaxed now! I love all those magazines, so much inspiration.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful here is KY too, think that means your good weather is destined to hold out another day.

Hi Carla,
ReplyDeleteI hope you enjoyed your quiet and relaxing Saturday. It was gorgeous here this past weekend - Indian summer. I wish the leaves stayed this color all year round.
