A Winner and Some White

Because I'm not feeling up to snuff I didn't take photos of the drawing.  But Mr. Tide did his usual magic and picked a winner and that winner is Linda from Coastal Charm!!!  If you've visited Linda's blog lately you'll know that she just joined Weight Watchers, although she already looks very svelte to me, so hopefully these earrings won't weigh a lot so that she can wear them to one of her meetings!  Congrats Linda!!

Now for some White!  We have more of the white stuff coming down outside!  It's unbelievable here, I've never seen weather like this except with a hurricane or tropical storm.  The winds are howling, and the snow is blowing sideways, so instead of being pretty it's really quite unnerving.  Looking out our windows, you can't see anything but billowing clouds of white snow swirling all around.  We used to live in the high desert of California for a short time many years ago, and this is like being in a dust storm in the desert.  They have even pulled the snowplows off of the roads, and Meg from Pigtown Design just emailed me to say that the roads up north in Baltimore are closed to everything but emergency vehicles! 

So since I'm still sick, and definitely not going outside, I thought I would share some of the white I have around my house.

White beans in an old Ball jar on the sill in the kitchen.

My faithful white teapot.

 

Some white baby's breath.

The little white pitcher that sits atop our white bucket bench.

 

The creamy white mother of pearl picture frame that holds a photo of my dear mother.

My favorite little heart shaped embroidered pillow.

 

A set of initial coasters and a Belleek dish from my wonderful friend "J"!  And the beautiful white ginger jar lamp from my Great Aunt Frances.

  

Some icy white branches in a white vase, sitting on the white TV cabinet.

White seashells.

And the white ceramic balls that my kids say look like either bingo balls or eyeballs...but I still love them anyway!

For more white don't forget to stop by ...
