I just love reading blog awards, where you have to list things that you love, hate, do, don't do and the like. I got this fun Tag you're it from Heart's Desire Beads, Debra, a lovely lady who is about as active as a person can be...for example, she home schools her kids! That is a major full time job but she manages to run a thriving BEAUTIFUL wrapped wire with gems jewelry business.
Just for a treat jump over and check out her talents, her stuff is just gorgeous. http://heartsdesirebeads.silkfair.com/ I would be jealous but I like her too much! Well without too much further ado, here we go:
YYYYY Tag....I'm It!

5.) The fruits from my garden, hopefully peas soon.
6.) Hitting the thrift store today, that will mean that I have put the last coat of paint on my kitchen cabinets.

this is randomly last on this list but I LOVE THIS BLOG.
So hard to pick my favorite links, I am suited for the Internet and the Internet is suited for me, it is a garden of information, and I spend as much time as I can spare gathering those lovely little wildflowers for a mason jar on my table. Thanks again to Debra, who by the way has a lovey blogspot of her own, http://heartsdesirebeads.blogspot.com/, a treat every time I drop by!
And many thanks to Debra @heartsdesirebeads.blogspot.com for the beautiful pictures in this article.
