I love the gold fixtures.
A picture perfect view.
When was the last time you wrote your sweetheart a note just because? I admit, I love the idea of writing notes to my darling. Place your note in a coat pocket, sock draw, lunch bag, etc. Ask if they saw your note, just in case it was missed.
I WAS BORN TO LOVE YOU ~ LOVE YOU TO HEAVEN AND BACK ~
YOU COMPLETE ME ~
YOU MAKE ME GIGGLE, WHEN I THINK OF YOU ~ YOU ARE PERFEC TO ME.
Start something new, remind your love ones how much they mean to you with written notes from the heart.
Thanks for stopping by.

This Saturday is a cold one. Enjoying a warm fire with my darling husband and daughter in the morning is one of my favorite things to do at home, before the day gets away with things to do and places to go. If you don’t have a fireplace, don’t worry. Instead, light a few candles and enjoy a cup of coffee or tea. A little quiet time with the special people in my life, on a cold Saturday morning, warms my heart.
Add a special touch with heart shaped marshmallows and tea bag tags for your sweetheart.

How do you update your room during winter? I look on the bright side and add color in my home and clothing to cheer things up. Purchasing flowers each week for the family room and kitchen counter is my way to brighten up my home on a gray, cold day.
A cup of tea and cookies with the kids is the perfect break from work.
A little pink and red is certain to warm the heart. Pink and red add energy to my small room.
In a few more months, the birds will be singing and everything will be green and colorful, again. For now, enjoy the time to reflect and renew.
Thanks for stopping by.
Stay warm and stylish during the winter months by adding a fun hat to keep your head and ears warm. Add layers for comfort and ease. Visit my Pinterest board for more inspiration.
What’s your favorite look?
Last night, I was singing and dancing to Daryl Hall’s music. Yes, the fabulous Daryl from Hall & Oats. We love Live from Daryl’s House. The show won the 2010 WEBBY Award in the Variety Category. Daryl invites his friends and musical artist and they jam in his engineered recording studio, cook and share memories in his historic home in Amenia, New York.
Live from Daryl’s House has featured a mix of well-known performers, as well as newcomers. Have you noticed all the period details and his blue and white pottery as they enter his home? I was happy to find images of his house. Apparently, it was up for sale in 2009. It is a restored Revolutionary War Georgian Colonial. The house has museum quality with 24 rooms, 9 fireplaces, indoor pool, 4 guesthouses, pergola and groomed 245+/- acre estate, fields, woods, ponds and Catskills views.
Daryl constructed a rambling 24-room main house. He combined two historic Georgian style homes, one from 1770 and 1786. He had them disassembled and moved from their original locations. He then had them painstakingly re-constructed as they were originally built on his property.
The two structures were joined by a beamed, barn-like and sparsely furnished great room with a catwalk that wraps around three sides and one of the meandering mansion’s 9 fireplaces. It is approximately 8,400 square feet.
The kitchen features a fireplace for lingering after dinner.
After enjoying the garden and breath taking hillside, this lap pool is perfect for a dip. I’m putting out there in the universe: Daryl, if you are ever in a mood for a Dominican feast, I’m ready to cook.
