Looky Loo

Let me introduce you

to one of my lovely

new bloggy friends.

Bonnie is new to the

neighborhood and is

the proprietor of the

charming blog,

Love your Place.

I first commented to her

about her darling profile

photo of a sweet giraffe

looking through a window

at Giraffe Manor in Nairobi.
We spoke of our mutual love

for these gentle animals and

she was so kind to send me

these wonderful photos.
When you visit Bonnie’s blog,

be sure and read about

Giraffe Manor

and introduce yourself to

Looky Loo.

Margaret

Most babies measuring 5ft would be

considered big, but newborn giraffe,

Margaret, at Chester Zoo, UK

is seen as unusually small for her species.

HOW SWEET!!

She is one of the smallest giraffes

ever born at Chester Zoo

but pint-sized Margaret will soon be

an animal to look up to.

Little Margaret,

who is the first female Rothschild giraffe

born at the zoo,

is being hand-reared by her dedicated keepers.

The Artist

Women

are the artist of the everyday.

We need to cherish this wisdom

and pass it on to those we care for.

A Privet

You

may remember the post

I featured on Hound Hill Design.

Imagine my surprise when yesterday

a package arrived on my doorstep.

Inside was a beautiful little box accompanied by a

a handwritten note from proprietor,

Nancy Toon.

This, her gesture of

appreciation was so humbling

that I felt compelled to share it with all of you.

Delicate

green walls defining nature's space.
In spring, tiny white blossoms form lacy pyramids

on the branches' tips.
They send a fresh, clean,

astonishing fragrance into the Hampton's brisk evening air.

It's a very special fragrance from a very special place and a very special blogger friend.

Thank you, Nancy, I just love it!

L'Hotel Particulier

There are some days

when you just want to politely excuse yourself

from the hustle & bustle.

Today was one of those days.

Enter

L'Hotel Particulier. 

Of course, I would have to bring home

this little lovely as a souvenir

for my own front door.
