It seems as if all my blog buddies and FaceBook friends are suffering the ill effects of a very cold winter. Jack Frost brought along a cold hearted hag who has long since worn out her welcome. Don’t get me wrong, I’m always the first to welcome fall and I look forward to making our first batch of simmering chili. We love kettles of steaming soup and I’m a huge fan of hot cocoa. Within moderation! We reached the “all right already” stage three cold fronts back.
I can’t hurry spring no mater how many seed catalogs and planting guides I look at, but what I can do is surround myself with PINK!!!
A PINK tree in the dining room is all decked out for Valentine’s Day. It adds such a warm, happy glow to the house that I’m shaking off some of the cold weather “blahs” that have had me by the big toe. I’m still looking forward to warmer weather, but the PINK hearts and cherubs have put a smile on my face…
Vintage looking fans are nestled among the branches…
Now, isn’t that better? No wonder we all love PINK! Beverly is a genius for inventing this weekly celebration!!
Then my collection of handmade Valentines was scattered on a lighted lace draped display cabinet.
Look at the beautiful details and all the PINK! Many were made by Pink Saturday ladies who spent a year creating pages for each other in our Circle of Friends Journals.
We can spend the day with our favorite hot tea visiting everyone who is posting this weekend. Thanks for stopping by and thanks again, Beverly .http://howsweetthesound.typepad.com/my_weblog/pink-saturday/
I’m in a much better mood now.
