Look what a friend brought me today! 3 real hydrangeas! 2 white and 1 blue. I put them in one of my old soup tureens. I never seem to actually serve any soup from my tureens!
How nice it is to have a bit of spring inside on such a cold blustery day! It's around 26 today but with the wind it feels like 10. Which is cold for Atlanta and we're all just not used to it so we're freezing!
I've gotten a few awards that I'd like to acknowledge. Laura from Our Scented Cottage gave me the Reward of Merit (which she designed herself).
Susan from A Southern DayDreamer put a southern spin on the award and gave me the Georgia Friends Award which is to be passed on to a fellow Georgian blogger. So I'll pass this on to sweet Sue at Rue Mouffetard
Kelly Maria Belle Ame Beautiful Soul gave me the following award which is for blogs that "invests and believes the PROXIMITY - nearness in space, time and relationships. These blogs are extremely charming. These kind bloggers aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in prizes or self-aggrandizement." That's my goal!
The very sweet Gloria of Viva La Vida was kind enough to give me the Kreativ Blogger Award.
Thank you ladies! You're all very sweet for thinking of me. I truly appreciate it!

How lovely the hydrangeas are! I was just putting some dried green ones in a bowl. Wishing Spring would hurry on.

Oh my- those hygrandeas sure keep my spirit alive for Spring- it's 10 degrees here today! I have the same backsplash as you- I painted it white. And almost the same countertop. But your kitchen sure is cleaner than mine. I better get hopping!
