G Guests for Tea

H Home

I Inspirational Authors

J Jane Austen book
Sense & Sensibility

K Kitchen Gadget
My Bosch mixer is so great.

L Laundry Help
We keep two baskets in the closet and sort our clothes into lights and darks as we go. Saves time when I do the wash. I then put all my folded clothes in one basket and Sweetheart's in the other as they come out of the dryer. It makes putting things away easier, as well.

M Musical
Oklahoma!

N Naptime
I love naptime on a rainy afternoon when I’ll snuggle into bed with a book and a cup of tea, read & relax awhile then drift off to sleep.

O Organizing Tip
Always clean up the kitchen before you go to bed.

P Pride & Prejudice Character
I figured asking which movie version had already been done enough!
In the 2005 version I like Jane the best. In the A&E version I like Elizabeth.

Q Quote
"You can never get a cup of tea large enough or a book long enough to suit me." ~C.S. Lewis

Currently, the Ginger Bear Cookies are at the top of my list. In fact, I may go make some as soon as I post this!

V Voyage You’ve Taken
My trips to China have been the best voyages.

W Water Feature; Lake, Creek, Ocean, etc.

X X-tra Special Treat for Yourself
Soaking in a bubble bath with a good book, chocolate, and a cup of tea by candlelight.

Y Thing About YOU!
My smile, though not in pictures where it often looks forced.
