    Reflecting on 2018

    ByMary Crozier December 29, 2018December 30, 2018

    The time between Christmas and the New Year is an interesting one.  I love having less cars on the road, a fluid schedule, and more time with my family. The house is a bit messy but I don’t really care. As this year closes and a new one is ready to begin, it is a…

Photos haven’t been edited, but hopefully you will enjoy them anyway! I almost ALWAYS do a white table cloth,…

    Our Thanksgiving Table

    ByMary Crozier November 20, 2018November 20, 2018

    Thank you so much for the feedback on my last post.  Based on consensus, I went with the silver beaded charger~~still surprised I hadn’t thought of it before.  A bit of thistle is stuck into the napkin for color and texture. I was so excited when I made the decision to go silver, but then…

    Thanksgiving Table Options

    ByMary Crozier November 13, 2018November 13, 2018

    Can you believe Thanksgiving is next week?  I’ve been enjoying my lolly-gagging November and just like that, turkey day is around the corner! I ordered my fresh turkey this a.m. and have begun meal planning.  The good news is that I will have my foodie son home from Washington, DC. I will be so grateful…

    A Peek into Our Master Bath

    ByMary Crozier October 3, 2018August 22, 2022

    Our master bathroom is my sanctuary.  It is hard to even remember the original layout. Bathrooms have come a long way since the early 1900s. The original master bath looked like this~~love the dizzying wallpaper. The unique cast iron tub from the early 1900s was salvaged and moved to our daughter’s bathroom. We completely refigured…
