While I'm honing my computer skills, (still can't manage to create a link for you!!), I thought I would post this lovely image of what I wish my kitchen could look like...

This past weekend my husband and I spent both days cutting back the ivy growing on our red brick house. Don't be alarmed...I managed to convince all the males involved with the renovations that it was staying as it was!!! We trimmed back just enough for them to work around the windows, so they could replace them and the shutters. As you can see from both the photos, above and below, the ivy, which has taken me approximately thirty years to grow was not going to be removed! It borders the stone walkways and is even climbing up the stately old trees... Today when I checked up on the progress of the framers, they had sheets of plywood and 2x10's laying on the ivy border near the front door...I gently and quickly re...
