A Bunny Breakfast Tray

Bunnies abound in the spring and I love them.  I also seem to be

focused on breakfast trays these days.  Remember my Rise and Shine

Breakfast Tray from a recent post?  

Maybe I am hoping that someone will serve me breakfast in bed (hint, hint).

So I was inspired to create a bunny tray for a happy breakfast to get you

hopping out of bed.  I used a floppy eared bunny bookmark to keep the

vintage silver in place.

I love this pale blue hobnail glass.  I found it for pennies at a garage sale a

few years ago.  I am glad that someone decided to give it up because

it has become a treasure in my cottage.  It will make a great vase for the

lily of the valley popping up in my Mom's garden too.

Here is Mrs. Rabbit rocking her babies.

Stay tuned for more spring decorating.  You never know where more

bunnies will be turning up.

Bentley does not want any bunnies in his yard.  He chases them just

like he chases squirrels and cats.  So all of the bunnies around here

are just for show.

Ladies Who Lunch

What can be more fun than to invite a group of your best girl friends over

for a lady's lunch.

I am bringing out all of my favorite luncheon plates and cups covered in

violets.

They remind me of the wild violets that are starting to appear in my garden.

Someone once told me that they are weeds and I should pull them out

before they over run the yard.  I am sure her advice was well meaning ~

but I ignored her.

The sweet violets and tulips welcome spring into the garden.

I found this little print in an antique shop several years ago.  It was very inexpensive.

The frame is plastic.  Technically not very valuable, but to me it is a real

treasure and I love it dearly.  Just as I love the wild violets that grow all over

my garden.

Please join me in visiting ~

Something's Coming

I worked all day today, but I took the time to take a short walk outside for my

lunch break.  It was an unseasonably warm afternoon.  The sun felt good on my

face and I knew ~ something is coming.

Soon we will see pansies...

beautiful irises ...

and bleeding hearts.

We will plan tea parties in the garden ...

and more tea parties.  We will feel the cool leaves of grass beneath our feet

and ...

we will rejoice!  Ah spring.  It's coming ~ and I could feel it in the air today!

Seasonal Sundays

You feel it too ~ don't you Bentley!

Hugs,

Dreaming of Spring on the Porch

It's a cold gray February morning ...

but in my heart I am dreaming of spring.

I'm longing for a sunny morning with the light filtering

through the trees and sweet blossoms to brighten the path

to my door.

I'm longing to sit on the porch with a cup of tea

and planning a garden while Bentley

chases the squirrels.

I'm dreaming of clay pots filled with flowers and

sweet little birdhouses.

Ah well ...

Just a dream for now!

Lets go visit some sunny friends ~
