I found these little garden boots when I was looking for something else. This is how I usually find things I have “put back” , get off track, and remember what I WAS looking for in a few days. I purchased these at our local Salvation Army Thrift Store last year, and can’t believe my nine year…
The Garden in Winter
It’s not often we get snow in the south, and the huge snowflakes coming down now are beautiful and create a winter wonderland in the garden.

My car came to a screeching halt when I saw a local antique shop was going out of business, and had 60% off everything. Of course when I got there, a lot of things were gone but I found a couple of treasures. These little reproduction cans of fruit, coffee, and vegetables, were perfect for…
