I didn’t know. Evidently a lot of people do not know. In Dallas, Texas at Fair Park is the Texas State Vietnam Memorial, and it has been there twenty-five years come this November. Live and learn. While standing in line to buy coupons at the State Fair of Texas, I noticed these wreaths. I left […]
Getting to share my friend Mrs. Ralph’s home has been a treat, and I do thank her for letting me share. Her home is gorgeous any time of the year, but it seems to thrive in the fall. Other post have visited her porch, dining room, living room, and breakfast room. Click on the names […]
Be still my heart. I LOVE Mrs. Ralph’s breakfast room. Oh, I am not saying anything new. I tell everyone how much I enjoy being in this room. The above image will provide you with an overview of this room. Harlequin wallpaper, paired with the tartan plaid wing back chairs look so good. The side chairs are […]

Since our speaker has written […]

Mrs. Ralph created an unusual fall table filled with natural elements and little foxes. Mrs. Ralph has had Little Fox for […]
As a rookie hostess for the ladies monthly Round Table luncheon, it was a little intimidating to think that our committee was responsible not only for the decorations but also the food. When I saw that Evelyn was on the hostess list, I breathed a sigh of relief. Everyone knows that Evelyn is a fantastic […]
Mrs. Ralph – my friend who channels Ralph Lauren in her decorating style – has decorated for fall, and I get to share. From the get-go there is a progression of fall eye-candy. By the steps, urns are filled with crotons and are surrounded by pumpkins. The bold colorful leaves of the croton plants are […]
Sitting royally on the sofa, Maggie appeared ready for a photo session. Oh, I did not plan a photo session, but Miss Maggie was so regal it seemed the right thing to do. I ran to get Trusty Camera, and this is what happened. “Look at me. I am queen of my world.” First there […]
