Gray on gray ?
So having my old buddies .. Santa and Mrs. Claus .. cookie jars I bought so many years ago I will not say .. they have traveled to quite a few places with me .. and they are a comfort zone ?
At least they are not buried under snow right now ... for the moment ?

Hi Joy~~ As I was reading your blog, the news was reporting on the blizzard in the NE. I hope you stay warm. No chortle from me. I love those little lights. Sometimes I'll leave the white ones on in the garden until they burn out.
All right Joy, it's time to confess that your rosemary is artificial!
My favorite part of christmas is the lights. I could leave them up all winter. I do leave some of them up. Have a nice weekend.
Wow, I'm amazed your rosemary, parsley, and hens and chicks are doing so well! I brought mine in the house. The parsley that's outside is done.
It's cold here in Michigan too! I can't stand it! The high bone chilling winds are causing havoc every where.
Trees are down, branches are every where and It's so cold I can hardly stand to look out of the window! Today it was only 16 degrees.
All I can do is run from my house to my car..literally, to purchase my daily needs.
people are almost running into each other almost knocking themselves out trying to escape the weather when they enter the store.
It's Bad really Bad!! this is not my favorite season..never have been.
Hurry spring! Hurry!
Great pictures, love the cookie jars! Do the boys permanently reside on the deck, or are they out and about in the garden during better weather? They are a funny bunch. :)
Hi there Grace .. it does seem that winter is on a vengeance path right now doesn't it ? .. I do love specific "comfort" lighting through the house, especially during these long dark winter days/nights .. my favorites though are the orange ones I put up for Halloween ;-)
Tatyana girl .. you have given me such a good laugh this morning !! No one can be as surprised as I am with this rosemary .. I'm not sure which cultivar it is .. the standard or the Tuscan (which is my favorite) .. we shall see how long it will look this good ? LOL
Hi Lisa .. I think it can be considered a section of "light therapy" ? this season .. even when Xmas is over .. I will be keeping these up and naming them Valentine lights, then St. Patrick's Day lights, oops .. Easter lights .. well , you get the idea right ? LOL
Sue .. I am too girl .. I didn't expect the rosemary to stay so beautiful so long .. but the Hen'sChicks can survive in pots here through winter .. I love parsley .. but I think it is almost on the way out now ..
Vetsy girl ! My goodness ! You are having a worse time than we are right now .. I'm sure we will get that weather again no doubt.
OMG though .. I saw what you were describing in my mind's eye and I am still laughing about the people bumping into each other like that .. not funny when it is YOU actually doing it .. but funny in my mind .. YES ! lets hope this season gets over with FAST !
Thank you Rebecca ! .. the boys usually stay put .. maybe move a little around the deck .. but after that raccoon issue last year, they are a little uneasy about bumping into one in the garden .. so they are happy being on the deck : )
I love your twinkly lights over the cupboards! Those little lights always make a scene more festive.
These days, I drive through a couple of extra streets in our neighbourhood on the way home in the evenings with our little guy so he can see the Christmas lights. Seeing how enchanted he is with the lights has really reminded how wonderful they are.
Hello there Ms. S !
I know what you mean .. how kids so enjoy those lights , it makes us enjoy them more too : )
I can't imagine a Christmas without some .. the kitchen and family room are the most used so I say MORE LIGHTS PLEASE !! haha
Your herbs must have super powers, how on earth are they doing so well?? Sorry that outside is so grey and dull but inside is so cosy and chrsitmasy, lovely xx
Hi Carrie girl .. I just did an e-mail for you : ) Yes .. it is wonderfully cozy and Xmassy ? inside and that rosemary MUST have super powers I am sure !
