Strolling through the garden, then sitting down to enjoy the flowers and view with a glass of iced tea is one of my favorite things to do. Especially after a long day working out in the yard, it is peaceful to sit back and enjoy the fruits of your labor. I think one of the the...

Hi Tiffany! I apologize for my recent comment and called you Niki. Although I corrected it, it was too late because I have already posted it. I was reading your comment in Niki’s blog, and for some reason her name stucked in my brain. Lesson to learn: proof before posting Jeanne - July 1, 2009 - 2:42 pm
LOL..you are so funny! Way to arrange the crap! Katie Galbraith - July 1, 2009 - 12:32 pm

Oh, I sure got a chuckle from your comment about if you arrange it your pile of crap looks good… you certainly make it look great! I need to try that! Don’t know what my DH will say… it’s worth a try! Debbie - June 29, 2009 - 5:48 pm
Oh, this is such a sweet post. Your junk looks great! I love your bunny too! We had 3, and they all passed away. Our oldest was 6. I think we need a new one! elyse - June 29, 2009 - 5:12 pm

Little Marshmallow is too cute! Nice little guy to work with!! Robin - June 29, 2009 - 6:17 am
“Display your crap: it makes it look good” is a perfectly reasonable motto to me! Kathy - June 28, 2009 - 11:12 pm
Awwww, you know that I adore Marshmallow. I am going to have to come visit him again soon and get a bunny snuggle. Can’t wait to see your cards. amy - June 28, 2009 - 8:49 pm

I’m starting to work on a little private sitting area/garden in my own yard. Unfortunately I have no sweet cloud of a bunny to make it as pretty as yours! Linda Lilly Cottage - June 28, 2009 - 6:02 pm
Oh sweet little bunny, my husband would love to have a rabbit but it is illegal to have a rabbit as a pet where we live. Probably just as well, we seem to have every other kind of animal! Joy - June 28, 2009 - 5:48 pm
Great photo shoot. What a Marshmallow treat that little bunny is! Samantha - June 28, 2009 - 4:21 pm

Speaking of sitting and relaxing with a good book, your article and your pictures are fabulous in the latest issue of LIFE! I just received my copy this week and smiled when I came across your spread… Kathy - June 24, 2009 - 10:26 pm
I need to borrow that magazine, it looks beautiful : ) Donna - June 24, 2009 - 9:16 pm

Solace and a cup of tea… Lorrie - June 23, 2009 - 8:42 pm
A cup of tea and a new magazine full of inspiration is a wonderful way to while away an hour or two. Lisa - June 23, 2009 - 3:10 pm
Really good idea! Thanks! LindaSonia - June 23, 2009 - 9:46 am
Ooo, please share what the magazine is, I’ve never seen it before. It looks lovely. Have fun! LindaSonia Samantha - June 23, 2009 - 9:09 am
Sigh…that sounds lovely. And the dress on the cover of that book is gorgeous! I would love to be able to wear something like that, but somewhere along the way my hourglass figure seems to have picked up a few extra hours. Florence Muma - June 23, 2009 - 8:11 am
You are so right, when I get a new magazine or book I love to sit down with some tea, put my legs up and go ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Stephanie - June 23, 2009 - 7:36 am
Makes me want to make some tea and read a book ! Jackie - June 23, 2009 - 7:24 am
Sounds pretty perfect to me!! I love Fortune Cookies. Always have. I think they are prophetic nonsense, but yet every time one comes around on that shiny silver tray, I chose mine carefully, as to insure the proper outcome. One must not choose randomly, but with purpose, because if not, your entire future may depend on it. It... Martha - June 29, 2009 - 9:29 pm
How fun is your blog? I love the cookies and the fun you have. I am new to your blog and I just love it. Thanks for sharing. Martha Stephenie - June 29, 2009 - 11:50 am
What a cute post Tiffany!!! What great fortunes you got there…. Jeanne - June 28, 2009 - 7:22 am
Very cute post! Karen - June 27, 2009 - 9:10 am
Love your blog! Florence, from Essences of the Past mentioned it, and I had to check it out. Funny thing about how to pick a fortune cookie! I always do the thing where I get the last one, because for some stupid reason I think it was the one I was supposed to have. Karen Cleaning Melbourne - June 22, 2009 - 10:42 pm
thanks for the thoughts.. elyse - June 21, 2009 - 6:41 pm
this post gets an A for adorable. we got chinese food tonight. the perfect take-out for a rainy father’s day. kana conger - June 21, 2009 - 11:02 am
Very clever post!! Zita - Mlle Magpie - June 21, 2009 - 5:24 am
How nicely those cookies go with your colour palette, Tiffany. karla nathan - June 20, 2009 - 9:45 am
I think that fortune cookies are 95% air, so you could probably have a few more if you wanted and not hurt your diet too much. Or just hang on to that “happy and harmonious” one and stop while you are ahead! Katie Galbraith - June 19, 2009 - 8:02 pm
My favorite one is, “You love Chinese food.” Jennifer - June 19, 2009 - 6:44 pm
Hee! Hee! Silly girl! CUTE post!! Kathy - June 19, 2009 - 6:34 pm
I always listen to the cookies, they say “Bite Me” ; ) Lisa H~ - June 19, 2009 - 3:33 pm

LOL! Now that one should really be for me! Weren’t those fortune boxes from the Funky Junk Sisters sooo sweet though? Cute Idea! I am recooperating from a whirlwind weekend again today! This time it was for my first solo performance at the Funky Junk Sisters Show! What a blast. I have never done an entire booth to myself before, and I must admit I was a little nervous hanging with all the "big dogs" who had done... Holly - July 8, 2009 - 5:50 am
Hi, Tiffany! I thought I had left a comment here on this post but I don’t see it. Must have been some other funky junk post! ☺ Natasha Burns - July 6, 2009 - 7:57 am

Oh sweetest Tiffany! So wonderful to actually have time to visit with you. I’m seeing so much in your pictures that you had on Saturday that I would have loved to buy. That’s okay, I do love my cute little tote. Need to add some flowers and I’m good to go! We really do need to plan that birthday weekend we were talking about. Until then, we hope to get to see you at Barn House in July! elyse - June 16, 2009 - 6:34 pm

Wow Tiffany your booth was GORGEOUS! Well done girlie, and I loved the parade of aprons you donned in your photos – they are all beautiful, and so is their model The Funky Junk Sisters - June 16, 2009 - 4:04 pm
Tiffany, Leah Robinson - June 16, 2009 - 4:00 pm
Oh Tiffany…that is the sweetest post ever. You are fabulous…I can’t believe this is your first show. This is only the beginning for you. Jaiden was amazed to see herself with you on the blog. When I asked who it was..she said ME! And I asked who else was in the picture and she said.. “My best friend!” I look very forward to meeting your daughters too. Thank you.. Zita - Mlle Magpie - June 16, 2009 - 3:50 pm
Tiffany, you and your booth look absolutely gorgeous! Wow! How exciting! Your daughter looks so sweet too – I’m glad she was such a great help (I know it can be tricky at that age). And those pink roses from your garden = to-die-for beautiful! Jill - June 16, 2009 - 3:42 pm
I would never have guessed you weren’t a “big dog”! Stephanie - June 16, 2009 - 3:15 pm

I am soooo glad we made it up there… It is always fun to see you!! Boy, you did sell a lot on Saturday, I didn’t see much of that great “junk” on Sunday!! Jen Grenko - June 16, 2009 - 1:27 pm
Awesome post. Looks like you had a wonderful time. Love the old gowns, Nadia and the typewriter. Especially loved the smile on little Jaiden’s face. You can’t buy that and it’s worth the most of all. Heather - Speckled Egg - June 16, 2009 - 1:19 pm
Your booth looks gorgeous! I bet the show was a blast! Jackie - June 16, 2009 - 1:00 pm

Wow! What a fabulous show, and your booth was amazing! You fit right in with the “Big Dogs.” The pink roses ~ to die for! And Jaiden, so sweet ~ what a treasure! |
