Good Memories!!!!!!!!

I was a little nostalgic the other day and pulled out an old dress that I used to wear when I was younger.  It doesn't fit me anymore, but I still love it.  I even had matching blue shoes for it!  Perhaps someday I will have a grandchild who will want to wear it.........ohhhhhh what a great tea party we will have!!

I love Alaskan native baskets and beadwork.  Some of these have a wonderful cottage appeal to them, especially if you find them in soft colors like these old Eskimo slippers

   

                                        One of my favorite collections is a really simple one.  Heart shaped              rocks...perfect for valentine's day.  I find these heart shaped rocks on my walks.  Some of the white pieces are coral.  I found those when I was in Maui about ten years ago.  I have a pesky stellar jay who loves  to pick out the white coral rocks and throw them out of the blue bowl.  I guess he has his own idea of decorating and doesn't mind putting his beak into it!!!!!

                                      Since I was being nostalgic I had to include this photo of some of my feathered friends.  The left black and white chicken is "Cruella".  she would follow me like a puppy.  She loved to be held.  She was  one of my best friends with a heart of gold!!  Bantam chickens are such wonderful pets besides being good little egg layers!
