"Pink" and White Wednesday at Spring Creek

The Valentine bug has bit me,

down at my little space at Spring Creek.

Pink and white are the colors of the day.

My little "Piano Babies"...

and a lunch basket with sweet things.

An altered train case...

tray with roses, and and oriental tea canisters.

A bookcase full of treasures...

Pink floral tole tray, young Mozart, and a dolly pin cushion

Silver basket, powder tins, and old photographs.

Shabby cherub lamps and
 a pink Parisienne dresser tray.

Sweet prints...

And dainty dishes...

pink crocheted pin cushion...

and a little lamb lost.

Altered framed collage...

And chalk swans in a jewelry box.

Mon Petite Boutique

is ready for love.

Kathleen at Faded Charm is our

wonderful Hostess.

Have a sweet

 White Wednesday!

love,

Debra

Adieu, doux ami

I am not a big dessert eater.

I love a piece of cake, or pie like the next person,

but I don't keep it around the house.

I don't eat dessert on a daily basis.

But this Christmas my St. Louis kids

 gave me a little box of chocolates.

They're not big candy eaters either,

 but were just celebrating the joy of giving goodies.

Who would know what lurked inside

this plain brown box.

4 chocolate truffles,

(with sea salt)

that were as delicious as anything I'd ever tasted.

I have a lot of willpower in some things.

Candy is one of them.

Once I opened this little jewel I made the decision

that I couldn't overdo it.

Two bites a day.

That's all.

Willpower.

But now they are gone,

And like a friend who has moved.

I miss them.

Good thing there isn't one of these close by.

What kind of candy is YOUR favorite?

And do you indulge,

or ration it?

Goodbye, "sweet" friend.

Debra

Silver Sunday on the Dresser

A stack of little silver boxes...

on an antique vanity mirror...

A sterling silver pocket mirror as a wedding gift...

And an old mercury glass perfume atomizer...

These are all evidence of my love of silver.

I'm joining Beth today at Gypsy Fish

for her wonderful Silver Sunday Party.

Have a shiny weekend!

Debra
