Sing for Your Supper


Today, I thought we'd take a peek inside my cupboards and around the kitchen.




I love my glass fronted cupboards.




And my napkin rings given to me by my sweet daughter!




You can't live in Maryland and not have a set of crab glasses.




And this blueberry creamer and sugar came from my parents who raised blueberries, yum!




This beautiful white platter was a gift from my neighbor last Christmas, I think she knows me pretty well!




The plate above the range came from Giant, the etched bottle was found at a local gift store, and the green bottle is from my dear friend Celia, she gave it to me in high school and I added the slate tag years ago.




On the hutch are some treasured kitchen items from my mother and grandmother, and that wooden block with the beach babe is from the talented and oh so sweet Linda at Itsy Bits and Pieces!  Thank you Linda, I love it!




As you can tell, I don't worry too much about jamming things into my glass fronted cupboards.  Storage is at a premium in this little house of ours so everything has it's place and there is a place for everything.




Gravy boats, milk glass salt and pepper shakers, and even chickens find themselves at home here.




I love my fishy chowder bowls.




The strawberry topped sugar bowl and butter dish peeking out behind the blue vase belonged to my grandmother.




Above the hidden microwave are my fancy smanchy glasswares.




And a few pretties too.




And because no kitchen would be complete without one, here is my cookie jar.  To see more kitchen pictures click here.

Now, go sing for your supper! ;-)

Put a Bug in Your Ear


Sorry to "bug" you all, but I have a few requests, or you might say that I wanted to put a little bug in your ear...ok, enough with the puns already!

1st...if you live in Southern Maryland and know of an awesome barn with a flag painted on it, would you please leave me a comment or send me an email letting me know the location?  Thanks, it's not for me but for a fellow writer who is doing an article for a regional magazine.  

2nd...if you live in the greater Las Vegas area...or between LA and Las Vegas and you have a house that you think is magazine worthy, please contact me ASAP.  We are looking for Vintage, Romantic, Cottage Style, Rustic Cabins, French Country, and Farmhouse Chic!  If you think your house fits any of those descriptions I would LOVE to hear from you.  You can email me at kgwhouse@gmail.com and I will need some low resolution photos of your rooms...the whole room please, and I would need shots of the kitchen, master bedroom (or any cute bedroom), living areas, dining room, porch/patio/sunroom if you have one!  If you have a blog, you can direct me to blog posts that show what your house looks like too! :-)

Ok, I have to run, I have to jump in my car and skedaddle to do lots of stuff today!  Enjoy your Tuesday and THANK YOU for your help!  

P.S. Mr. or Mrs. Cicada, pictured above, was on our firepit this morning!
