This is another picture from the Tasha Tudor book I bought, they are so sweet. 
Since spring spring has not come to Acorn Hollow I have decided to fake it until it makes an appearance.
I went out on the porch and cleaned the last of the Christmas greens out and redid my door. OK they are silk but nothing would last at these temps. I still like it and it makes me feel hopeful that spring is just around the corner(I hope)
I even put a real nest with a fake egg in it. I am joining house in the roses to show off my spring door.
We hit a few stores and then for fun we went into the April Cornell outlet. we felt all the fabrics made a wish list and then I decided I would splurge on a set of sheets. She has such pretty colors and I need color, but no king size so we left with nothing but my daughter is going to drop in now and then to see if some come in. Next stop was Stonewall Kitchens. Their store in York Maine is not to be missed. But this is the outlet so we stumbled on some bargains. The blueberry jam you heat it a little and put it on vanilla ice cream it is amazing! The cleaning stuff was a big bargain I like it and it actually inspired me to clean a little.

Your door looks great..and I love the color of it too! I put a pic on my header of our crabapple tree..it was taken last April..all bloomed out. This same tree doesn't even have any blooms yet because we've been so cold and snowy. The snow's gone but I'm afraid of surprises! I feel your Spring woes. Maybe we'll all bloom out together!

So glad you got to spend time with Miss Baby and DD.
No snow here in Ohio but damp cold weather that just won't leave!!!
I always wonder about losing followers, too. I want to be like Sally Field ~ "you like me, you really like me". (It was Sally, wasn't it?)
Hugs :)

Spring is coming! Love the bunny pic
I saw the PBS special on Tasha Tudor a couple times. I was enthralled with her life style.
I'm still here! You are so lucky to have a Stonewall Kitchen store not too far away. I'll be thinking of you while I am faking spring too!
Love,
Susan and Bentley
