Picnic Days in all Seasons

Hello everyone,

I hope you had a lovely weekend.

It was a bitter cold one here...colder

than it has been in many years.

Although I like winter I am happy

that it has warmed up.

Thank you Laura for the suggestion that

I do a picnic theme for a post.

I went through my old pictures to
collect some for this post....
hope you enjoy it!

Winter picnics with a thermos of hot cocoa and

a sweet treat are fun if you are dressed warm.

Another autumn picnic by a lake.

A sweet picnic at the park

I have collected some old vintage picnic

baskets at thrift shops over the years.

This one got a coat of green paint.

I think this one is from my early years

of blogging. The mock orange in the

background was in full bloom and

has the most beautiful fragrance.

Thank you for visiting me today.

Take care,

    Carolyn

                                                               

Hammock Days

Hello everyone,

I am back today with a hammock theme.

I love winter shots of our hammock

as much as the summer ones.

I am not sure about you.....maybe you

only enjoy summer hammocks.

                                                          A snowy winter day

A touch of red 

An early morning shot with a mist

on the pond.

A vintage quilt to add color to

the hammock.

An early autumn day

A good place to enjoy the beauty

of the garden.

                                      A shady spot to enjoy a book and a cool drink.

Summer days by the sea.

Well, that is all my hammock shots for today.

Thank you for visiting,

Carolyn

Blue & White

Hello everyone,

I hope your week is going well.

January is flying by or so it seems.

As I mentioned in my last post I am

sharing a blue and white theme today.

Blue and white is my favorite so I

have lots of photos today.

A corner in our cottage~ Ocean Song.

Blue and white in our garden.....

a pretty tea time.

Our bed nook at our cottage

Croquet anyone?

Tea in the garden with the fragrance

of roses anyone?

Ocean Song again

Of course, as a lover of blue and white I

have collected lots of blue and white china

over the years.

Blue and white tea with pretty lilacs.

I love this teapot that my husband gave

me several years ago. The bouquet

from our garden makes my heart sing too!

Lots of beauty in our June garden.

Biscuits and tea anyone?

Another garden tea

A charming little cottage in Provincetown Cape Cod.

Our little blue garden shed.

Since,I have shared several summer teas,

I will now share some winter teas which

are more in keeping with our present

season.

I hope you will let me know if you enjoy

my color themes and if there are

any other themes you would like to see.

Have a wonderful day!

Carolyn

Mellow Yellow

Hello everyone,

On this sunny winter day I am sharing

some of my sunny mellow yellow

photos . These were taken over the years

that I have been blogging so it is

a yellow theme day today.

A sunny Easter Tea in our little sunroom.

Love these yellow Celebration roses from

David Austen with the pretty tea cup.

Yellow flag iris around the pond

look pretty.

A beautiful yellow peony was added to

my collection of peonies a few years ago.

A beautiful yellow heritage home with

a tea setting.

Some pretty handmade quilts add to

a tea time in our terrace.

Yellow always looks so cheerful.

I will end with my pretty teacup again.

I hope you enjoy my themed posts as I

am going to do a blue and white

theme next. I will have lots to

choose from there as I could

probably do a whole book

on blue and white.

Thank you for your visit!

Take care,

Carolyn
