Hello everyone,
Finally we are getting some warm weather that is melting the snow at a faster pace. I was excited to be able to go out and do some clean-up in Martha's garden if any of you remember that is our little enclosed garden that is more sheltered and so it warms up a little earlier.It is such a good feeling to see so many daffodils, tulips etc. starting to grow.
I haven't had a chance to take new photos lately so I am sharing some of my favorite whites that may or may not have been posted before. The photo above is taken in our little garden cottage which I will soon have cleaned up and be ready to enjoy again for another garden season.
This bouquet is a store bought one but soon I will be able to pick my own from the garden. I do have some crocus blooming but that is all so far.
I love this white teacup with the Lady's Slipper on it . The Lady's Slipper is the flower emblem for Prince Edward Island (my home province).
I took this shot a few weeks ago with my macro lens- I do need more practice with it.
I know I posted this before but hey,I love my cake!
Sunshine in the sunroom.
Two little cousins(our granddaughters) sharing secrets. I am looking forward to those cottage tea parties again.
Lilacs are one of my favorites.
White teas are so elegant,I think.
Well, soon I will have lots of new photos to share but for today it is simply whites.
Thank you to all who have left such lovely comments for me lately and welcome to my new followers.
I am joining Kathleen at Faded Charm for White Wednesday today.
Take care,
Carolyn

Oh, so lovely! I fell in love with the first photo, beautiful dollhouse, and so nice with the sunshine too.
Your grand daughters are cute. :)

I hope you come and look at my site! (we own the same teapot! I've got a post about it!!!!) enjoy my site, xxx
Hi Carolyn.
AS usual, your photos are so dreamy and sweet. I love the lady-slipper cup and saucer. I am sure your garden is just waiting to blossom out.
Beautiful whites. Your Grandaughters are beautiful and they look like such good friends. I always love seeing pictures of your garden cottage. I looks like such a lovely and serene place to relax. ~~Sherry~~
Beautiful white photos. Love the teacup with the ladyslipper on it. The girls are so cute. V
Dearest Carolyn,
Funny that you are still at the crocus stage but it makes a huge climatic difference this enormous distance between your and our garden!
Anyway, the lilacs are one of my favorites too, their fragrance is so special. Just made the garden tour and looked at our healthy bushes but the heat always impacts the blossoms. Hope that once we get lucky to allow me some photos.
Lovely post as usual and the china and everything is attractive and inviting.
Lots of love,
Mariette
Oh my...just lovely as always. But the photo of your little grandaughters is so adorable and so wonderful that it is special in itself.
Lilacs are one of my favorites too. I planted a white lilac last year. Can't wait to see it. Am anticipating my garden and yours. I love your pictures. Happy spring and many blessings!
Always a treat to see your whites! Gorgeous photos. ~ Sarah
Lovely whites today, Carolyn. I love the one with the pitcher of lilacs. I can't wait until the lilacs bloom! I'm your linky neighbor at WW and your newest follower. I thoroughly enjoyed the pretty photos you showcased today.
God bless,

Lovely whites Carolyn, so crisp and clean.
When we were in PEI I bought a mug with the lady slipper on it as a momento of our great trip to your province.

Some people say that white it's not a color. But I think that wite is most beautiful and romantic color of all other colors :)
Lovely! You seem to have so many talents! Photography, gardening, decorating, etc. Please share some helpful hints on how we can achieve some of your beautiful gardens and photos! Love your blog'
Your photos are gorgeous!Little girls are so lovely!
Hugs from Italy,

Yankee Candle has a new Ladyslipper fragrance you might like! Love your posts!
LOVE your Lady Slipper teacup. I grow several Lady Slipper orchids and they should be blooming soon. The grand daughters are adorable. I just recently found a child's white wrought iron table and chairs. I bought one for their home and they play tea party all the time but I have decided I need one at my house for them too. This Sat. I am taking my two grand daughters to a Cinderella Tea taking place at an historical home in our area and the tea is hosted by our local Ballet Co. Next month the Ballet Co. will be performing Cinderella. I will definitely be taking my camera to this Tea.
This morning in N FL we awoke to temperatures at 39*. I'm not sure where you will be traveling but I would definitely pack a sweater.
Enjoyed your white post as always.
