Things I did not buy









The apple of our eye


We 'met' 28 years ago and it's been a wonderful relationship thus far. We adjusted to the going away because we had no choice, we knew as soon as she 'came into the light' that this is what would happen. But we never imagined the circumstances that would bring her back home to us, never in a million years. We take care of her and she does for us what she does best- the apple pies are a bonus.

Another collection



I'm trying to stay away from my favourite thrift store but I could not resist this tea towel to add to my collection, which by the way is the hardest working of all my collections.

Pottery collection







It all started with a gift of a salad bowl almost twenty years ago and since then my Vallance pottery collection has taken over my kitchen. Quite a few pieces I have found at garage sales and thrift stores.Obviously, they did not appreciate the simple beauty of this pottery.

For A













These floral postcards are for my dear friend, Audrey, just to help her feel a little better.
