Booksigning was fun, prompted us to clean up!

You know how inviting company motivates a little house cleaning? Lydia Harris' booksigning did that for us. Come quick before it wears off!

For those of you who missed Lydia's booksigning for her new book, "Preparing My Heart for Grandparenting", she will be at Third Place Books in Lake Forest Park tonight, Saturday, October 16. 6 pm, I think.

So, no sooner did we clear up the cookie crumbs after Lydia's tea party, another consignment came in. As if the empty table were calling them through the ether...



...these 12 ceramic frames came in and took over the table. One for each month of the year. Aren't they charming? I could see a creative teacher making use of these in her classroom, but my imagination can't cover all possibilities. Where might you use these cute frames?

By the way, this is the last day of our "Make Room to Swing (with) the Cat" Sale. Hope to see you on this sunny Saturday.

Blessings...
