Rednesday - Fun Red Finds

http://suelovescherries.blogspot.com/

These are some fun things I've seen this summer.

Wouldn't this look cute hanging in a sunroom--(with a fishing theme) love it.

On my way to my Sis Deb's over the 4th of July we stopped a barbeque resturant and this was one of the booths.  The red bandanna is also leather.

A new barbeque spot here in KC-this was hangin in the front.  Can you tell we really like barbeque!!!

Hope you're having a great Rednesday.

Blue Monday - Blue Splatter Ceramic Bowl

Weekend thrift find, keeping with my blue splatter in my kitchen I found this great ceramic bowl.

It has a really pretty waffle edging and made really well. Paid $6.00 and it really looks good in the kitchen.

Sally, hope this weeks find you MUCH better.

Pink Saturday - Rose of Sharon

http://howsweetthesound.typepad.com/my_weblog
Happy to back with Beverly this Saturday, I've been out of town for the last two weekends.

Sitting on our deck we see our neighbors Rose of Sharon.  It starts blooming in June and is still going strong.  Our VERY hot and dry summer has not deterred this from blooming.

We purchased this Purple martin house several years ago.

Look at this stinker Purple Martin, he's sitting on top of fhis home but has let the Starlings live there.

Hoping PINK flowers are blooming in your neck of the woods.

{this moment}

A Friday ritual inspired by Soulemama. A single photo - no words - capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember.

Ann - Who do you see?

Vintage Thingie Thursday - Blue enamelware

http://coloradolady.blogspot.com/
Hello all you collectors!! Suzanne always has great things to look at.

In the mountains of Colorado, my DIL was doing a bid to do some painting on a gorgeous home.  The kitchen is so wonderful, along the top of all the cabinets she had many pieces of blue enamelware.

I had one piece, this coffee pot.

I thought I would try and do the same so I have begun looking for the blue and white speckled pieces.  I found this pan last week.

After I get the cabinets done in white, I think a collection would look great.

Happy hunting!!

Blue Monday - Missouri summer temp 2011

http://smilingsally.blogspot.com/

Glad the BLUE TEAM is continuing Sally's blog for her and that she is coming along.


I could'n resist taking a picture of this a few days ago.  This is a local news weather report on one of our local TV stations here in Kansas City.

Tightwad MO, is a small town in the southern part of Missouri--we used to travel by this town many, many times before they built  4-lane highway going to the Lake of the Ozarks as a girl.

Just had to have this for future reference on summer heat.

Have a super Monday.
