Hello,
Come right in, as I am excited to tell you about a beautiful new book that just arrived in the mail today.The book is from Norway, and it is Sanselig Sommer( Summer for all the Senses) by Franciska Munck-Johansen.
Grab a cup of tea and sit here in the sunroom and enjoy a peek through it.
But take a minute to enjoy the beauty of the flowers on the windowsill too!
I am enjoying going out to the garden and just helping myself to a pretty bouquet.
Now part of the reason I am so excited about this book, ---10 pages of my very own photos are featured in this beautiful book!!!
I have to admit I am pretty proud to see our garden in a lovely book from Norway!
I love that two of our little granddaughters also are in the book and our little garden cottage is also featured.
Some of you may remember some of these photos from my blog.
I want to thank Franciska for including my photos in this beautiful hardcover, that will proudly sit on my coffee table for years to come! If you would like to see more about this book please visit Franciska and also if you would like to buy the book there is a list of places to order it from on her blog. I do know that my friend Ria has a few copies left at It's me if you would like to check on her sidebar.She is also having a lovely giveaway that you can enter while you are there!

I am joining in Show and Tell Friday at My Romantic Home today.
Take care,
Carolyn
