Weekly Flower Flaunting

I am a little early in posting my Friday flower-flaunting.  I expect to be very busy in the next few days, preparing for some guests from England.
 I have formed the habit of walking around the garden, photographing  current blooms. I bought two nice fall mums at our local supermarket, for more autumn colour. I planted one in the border to fill  a bare spot left by my ruthless disposal of some unwanted perennials, and placed one on a table just outside the dining room window.
In the collage are some other flowers which are still flourishing. There are lots of dahlias , a limon plant, cobea, garden mums,and various coleus.
If you wish to enlarge the photos, just
click on them. 


Join Tootsie on Friday to see a listing of other flower-flaunting friends, and check out her knock-out garden at http://tootsietime.blogspot.com/

Victoria…and Me

To see larger photos, click to enlarge.. The May-June 2009 Victoria magazine is one of my favorites, featuring blue and white... one of the open pages with an article on linens...it just happens that I have one of the patterns... There is also a feature on blue and white Wedgewood ... I have photographed some of my pieces alongside the article... ....here is my interpretation of blue and white... As a nod to the current issue of Victoria, which features some tea tables in green, I have  set out my own little tea table, with some scones... ...or perhaps you'd like to help yourself to a chocolate-cherry morsel? On this spring day, I am joining in with : Celebrate Spring http://blissfulrhythm.blogspot.com/ Mary's Mosaic Monday, on whose blog you will see some lovely snowdrops: http://dearlittleredhouse.blogspot.com/2011/03/mosaic-monday-snowdrops.html Also,   Sandi is having a special tea party today, so be sure to go over there and enjoy her lovely blog
