I would have loved this when I was a child




Photo from Restoration Hardware

  The tents that were constructed in my parent's living room were never this cool. Mostly they were made from sheets and blankets and were draped over furniture. This tent from Restoration Hardware is so cool and made from recycled RAF materials. I would have loved it. (Still would).

Vintage Photo's

I love old photographs. These are two from my grandma's school days in the 1930's.

Have a great weekend!

Wine Rack

I recently celebrated my birthday and a dear friend gave me this wine rack. I have never seen one like it. I just need to replace those empty bottles with full ones.

Curbside Find

I found this great vintage stool on the curb. It needs a little work but still a very cool piece and the vinyl is in perfect condition.

Who is Michael Galbraith?

This Good Luck charm came to the surface in our garden a couple of years ago. I put it in a drawer and rediscovered it recently. Curious about the previous owner of this lucky charm,I put the name of Michael Galbraith into Ancestry.com, hoping to find out who he was. No luck. I can't find anyone by that name who lived anywhere near Mansfield. So how did his charm end up in my garden?  One of life's great mysteries.

This is tiny bit of my vinyl collection (thanks Mom & Dad). 

Now I am searching for the perfect piece of furniture to house them. Any suggestions??? 

Wine of the Week

I am in love with this wine. It's the 2009 Arizona Stronghold Vineyards "Dala" Cabernet Savignon. I'm not going to get snobby and wax poetic about it. You can read the tasting notes on the website...or better yet, buy a bottle.

If you're in north central Ohio, you can find it at

The Happy Grape

Check out the website for tasting notes and so much more!
