a rainy day with beauty all around

On this cool, rainy day thought I would share a few treasures from the kitchen.

Monica Potter Home Lavender candle is burning, so lovely.

A vase full of lilacs from our yard, they also smell heavenly!

My son Chris sent me this pitcher vase filled with flowers several years ago.   I use it all the time!

The Monica Potter Home rustic barn box is holding little milk bottles filled with delicate wild violets.  The cute bird holding string came from the Monica Potter Home store in Garrettsville, Ohio.

Sitting on top of the box is my Dad's "work" bible, he carried with him everyday day at work.

I have my Grandma's diary from the 1950's displayed here as well.

Sharing the inside cover and first page of her diary.

So sweet.

Happy Whatever Wednesday

It's a windy day out there!!

sunny, temps in the low 60's

Not bad for the middle of March

I didn't mention yesterday, that we also had a huge taco bar at Kelly's baby shower in addition to the fabulous cake and yummy pastries. SO much good food and everyone really enjoyed it.  I didn't take a pic of the taco bar but there will more photos to share later taken by the photographer. 

Speaking of food...I had a scrumptious snack last night...

An English muffin with blackberry jam from Hiram Farm and tea in my MPH mug..so good!

Oh and ambiance courtesy of my MPH lavender scented candle. 

I mentioned earlier this week that my laptop had issues. Well, guess what? It has been working fine since I posted that! Too funny! I am still not ruling out getting a new one.

Here is an awesome verse to ponder on today....

Saturday Sweetness

Saturday Sweetness

It is Monica Potter Home Store's 1st anniversary! Congrats to Monica and the whole team! They are having a big celebration today at the beautiful and cozy store, which is located in Garrettsville, Ohio. For various reasons, I wasn't able to make the trip down there for the festivities. 

 But I am there in spirit! 

Monica herself, is delightful...very sweet and is a kind soul. The shop and all of the team reflect this same sweetness and kindness.  You feel so at home and cozy at Monica Potter Home.

A few pics when Mom and I paid the store a visit in May, 2015.

Today Monica and the team are posting pics from today's event on their Facebook page..

MPH & welcome Autumn

I ordered a few items earlier this month, haven't had a chance to  show them here till now.

Monica Potter Home lavender hand soap and lavender hand lotion.  These smell awesome,so luxurious and are a must have to have in the bathroom or kitchen.!

I also ordered another Sea Buck Thorn Balm .  This little jar of balm is fabulous! Good for minor skin abrasions, zits, bug bites, etc.  I left my original balm at the cottage, so now I have one for home  and one for the cottage. Also a tiny bit goes a long way.

I treated myself to Monica's Beachcomber bag, which is Molly's pick for September. This is perfect for all of our travels. 

So happy it's my favorite time of year!! I love fall!!

accidental combo

Most people who know me, realize I love Monica Potter Home products

 and I am constantly talking about the products and sharing them.  

Today is no different. 

Today it is a big shout out to Molly's Dream Cream

 and  Grapefruit body cream!

I never imagined using these two delicious creams together, but that's what happened this morning.

I put Molly's Dream Cream, which is a lavender body cream 

on my legs 

and the Grapefruit body cream on my upper body.  

What a gorgeous pairing of fragrances!

Thank you Monica Potter Home!!
