Favorite Things Friday


Breakfast in bed ~ with a good book too.





Crafting in my studio.




Sitting on the back porch.





Celebrating holidays with good friends.






Vacations by the shore.





And at a charming cottage in the Texas Hill Country.





Shopping for antiques.



And especially up in Round Top!




The feedsack pillows on my breakfast room bench.



And the island in my kitchen.



Red Velvet mini cupcakes.





Blue and white transferware.



Staffordshire figurines



All the Yorkies I have loved.



And even their relatives.  This is Sugar, grandmama to Bitterman.



And of course this little guy.  Bentley!  Love him so much!


Big Texas Hugs,
Susan and Bentley

  2. We share so many of the same favorite things, Susan! I've heard so many wonderful things about antiquing at Round Top. It's on my wish list of things to do! Some day...
    Wishing you a happy weekend!

  11. Your kitchen island is amazing, Susan. You have so many charming things in your home - I would love to just "shop" at your house : ) Save one of those cupcakes for me, ok?

  13. Thank you JoAnne. I love that island. It was purchased locally at a small independent store. It is both beautiful and practical. We got such a good price on it too. Much less than if we had purchased elsewhere. I love to buy local. Yes ~ I'll save you a cupcake. This is Red Velvet Cake territory down here :-)

  14. That tea looked so good (I pinned that picture!) but I love the Holiday photo the most! Only 118 days 'til Christmas!

    Best wishes and thanks for joining the Sundays Down Under linky party sweet friend!

    1. I am soooo ready for cooler temps here. I am longing for fall, but then you are currently still in spring. Maybe I should live half the year in Texas and the other half down under :-)
