This and that

Here are some photos from the past week or so.

I impulsively ordered this placemat from Anthropologie when they offered free shipping on orders of any size.  I love it!  I ordered some extra for gifties too.  :)

Tea tastes (and looks) even better when it sits atop this lovely placemat!

I cleaned out the cabinet under my sink the other day and found (brand new) things I didn't even know I had-like this cute candle.

I found this pretty pinecone tart burner (and tarts) too!

November nasturtium-the last one, I'm sure.

After a week of gray skies, I finally saw some blue on Saturday.

This was this morning-we had clear blue skies-beautiful!  (Hello, purdy girl!)

I found dandelion seeds this November morning.

The mighty oak leaf

My beautiful Roc on this fine day!

Star cut-out on a barn near my home.

Oh, yeah-it's Election Day.  I did vote.

I was digging through some old photos the other day and found these black and white ones from 2001.  (I must have been going through my black and white film phase.)  Anyhow, this is Hope and Rover-my in-laws' rottie.  (He's gone now.)  Then I remembered that Hoper was holding Rocco the same way on prom day in 2010.  I think these pics look so cute together-some things just never change!

Have a wonderful week!
