Breakfast on the Patio ~ Hummers



It's been really cool in the mornings the last few days. A great time to take my cup of tea and English Egg muffin with Provolone cheese onto the Patio for breakfast.





I made myself an English Egg Muffin



Along with my cuppa Tea!

I love my teacups with the butterflies on them.


Sitting there enjoying the cool air and my breakfast, along comes 3 Hummingbirds fighting for the feeder.













They were so cute but one of them would sit on the pole with my birdhouse and watch for the others, when they would come it would fly over and chase them away. Silly hummers! Why can't they share.

Have a Blessed Day!

Project Complete, Finally!



 Years ago (in the home we downsized from,well 11years ago) my hubby built in our back porch, to make a small sunroom. We bought an oval table and chair set for it. I have been wanting for so long to restain it since it has faded so badly.

This is the before photo.


                                                                                                                                                                        



Now the After!



 Love the after!



It's hard for me to get started on projects these days, but I do like the results.  Now I would like to stain the concert floor of the patio, but can't decide what color.



I have enjoyed many a morning there listening to the birds sing and having a cup of tea.


 Hope you are enjoying your day!

Special Girls Outing




Saturday on our way for a day outing with just 'us Girls', we stopped at a friends house that was having a yard sale. Well it wasn't her house, she was having it at the house of a friend. I fell in love with the landscape.  As we were about to leave, I asked permission to take a few photo's.


This is the house, isn't the greenery and flowers pretty!
 The house is pretty also!








The back yard was even prettier, but I didn't ask until we were leaving so I didn't get photo's of it.

The main reason we stopped by was she had told me that she had her china for sale. It was hers when she was first married, her husband passed away a few years ago.
You know me, I always, always have to buy anything with teacups,,,LOL! My daughter said "Where are you going to put them".  Well I have a very special place for them, but that's a secret I'll tell you later.



On the bottom it says, Noritake Ireland Patience.
 It's a placing setting for 6.


 I love the feet, kinda looks like a stand, don't you think!



The flowers are so pretty with a white Lacey look



Trimmed in silver.

 

I told her I would have a Tea Party and she wanted to know if she could come, she will differently be invited. 

Have a Blessed Day!
