And it's ...Sweet dreams to you too, dear Poppy! And it's about time for that where you are, isn't it? <br /><br />It is odd how much a magazine can comfort and inspire. For awhile I thought blogs would replace magazines and some favorites folded but new ones are appearing. I remember the day I got rid of all the early years of Country Living and Country Home--wish I had them back! <br /><br />Goodnight dear friend!Dewenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07330797553600987145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7334613666852273616.post-46006410480655330382017-06-24T12:03:35.412-07:002017-06-24T12:03:35.412-07:00Like you, I know when it's time to go to my st...Like you, I know when it's time to go to my stash of old decorating magazines, knowing that once I start to leaf through one, my mood will lift, so that by the time I reach the last page, one usually dedicated to black and white real estate ads, as opposed to all the glossy, colourful photos of enchanting homes before it, I feel as though I've visited each of them, had tea in their gardens and heard stories about each one's quirks. Upon my arrival back to reality, I feel refreshed, as I ponder what I will tell my hostess next time, at tea, when she asks me what's quirky about my own home, out here in the country.<br /><br />Yes, let's make time enough to dream, my friends, to awake renewed and inspired until the next time.<br /><br />Sweet dreams, my dear Dewena!<br /><br />xoxo<br />Poppy<br /><br />Poppyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08980323586402386609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7334613666852273616.post-344572534923551932017-06-24T11:33:16.818-07:002017-06-24T11:33:16.818-07:00Yes, she is!Yes, she is!Dewenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07330797553600987145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7334613666852273616.post-72578462422804741192017-06-24T11:27:08.517-07:002017-06-24T11:27:08.517-07:00If I am the Poet and DeWena is the Writer, then su...If I am the Poet and DeWena is the Writer, then surely, YOU, Ms. Tam are the sTory Teller!♥Poppyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08980323586402386609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7334613666852273616.post-53140503920627541232017-06-23T16:07:41.447-07:002017-06-23T16:07:41.447-07:00I think I sometimes do live in the past, Tammy, es...I think I sometimes do live in the past, Tammy, especially the 1950s and early 1960s. But that seems a harmless pastime, doesn't it? At least I'm not out honky-tonking!<br /><br />But if I ever do decide to be a Honky Tonk Angel, I'll invite you to go along with me, my dear friend who flatters me with praise.

I wish I had saved some of my mother's. don't ever get rid of them! either of you! <br />it's not that I live in the past. but they have a peculiar way of calming me down and making me feel good! like everything is right with the world.<br /><br />and I wouldn't recognize an herb if I saw one! not even rosemary. well. that's not true. I've seen rosemary used as décor at Christmas time. LOL.<br />and I think I've never eaten a flower!<br />this was a delightful post!<br />a celebration of JUNE. I love the way you describe things. <br />yes. just as poppyk is a poet. you DSM are a writer. XOXO♥Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
