She makes the most beautiful, and no doubt delicious delectables, if only I could sample everything. The charming 24 CORNERS has also dropped this bouquet in my lap, so I am doubly blessed.

Thanks You are the best really got inspired to do this because of you. The world of images whatever discipline they maybe in, is fascinating, exciting and compelling and I wake up everyday to ride that wave.

ReplyDeleteDear Gaye,
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your support and this delightful surprise! One of the exciting things about blogging is touching in to the passions and worlds of other bloggers, growing through that experience, and being spurred on to share more, and in creative ways. You certainly set the standard.

Love seeing lists of the best new blogs - thanks as always! Also enjoyed the music in the newer posts! Hope you're surviving the cold snap! xo
ReplyDeleteJust discovered your blog and was immediately drawn to an older post, the one on Charleston and Virginia Woolf. I loved reading it and looking at the gorgeous photos. I recently visited Charleston in June, 2010 and was thrilled to finally see it as I have been an admirer of the Bloomsbury group and Virginia Woolf for a long time. I collect Hogarth Press books and Bloomsbury art. Thanks for posting such a gorgeous post on one of my favorite topics!
