Can We Do This Quickly ?

This is an Oasis on Key Largo ,in the Florida Keys.

This is the pool at the house in Key Largo.......let's keep moving.....

[ Now , I am running around getting ready for this guy, my brother. He is flying in from Nevis with his wife today]

So, if this post is not seasoned enough with my dark & sarcastic humor, then I do apologize.

Since I am rushing.......OH LOOK , it's a pool !

Nice. We love venetian mirrors, don't we ?

Well, my evil twin Brenda loves them !

See ......the ocean ! " CHOP CHOP " , let's keep moving please.

White silk sofas. These must be really clean people , with really clean friends, and really clean pets.

Oh yes.......they probably have no pets. C'mon, let's keep moving........

Isn't this nice ? Hurry , hurry !

I told you I have got to get going............

Okay. I 'm done.

Antiques And Country Pine

"This is a very fine George I Mahogany and Rosewood Crossbanded Bureau Cabinet. The upper section has a domed and broken architectural cornice centered by a carved crest with urn finials sitting above two arched glazed panel doors that open to reveal 45 drawers and 19 pigeon holes. The hinged door bureau section opens to a leather inset writing slide, two book stands, drawers, a central cupboard and even more pigeon holes! Eight serpentine drawers are below enclosing a kneehole cupboard and drawer flanked by brass mounted pilasters. The original piece was circa 1740 and is now in the Althorp Estate."

I don't need to say a word about these.

Well , maybe one word; fabulous!!

I have seen this style dining room chair, but not the counter height and bar stool. This I will keep as a source.

This, I love. Bamboo trim is my fave.

I Can't Help Myself

I LOVE HATS !!

But, tomorrow it is back to the business of interior design blogging.

If you haven't guessed.... this is 5th Avenue in NYC / Easter Day Parade.

"21st April 1946: Huge crowds on Fifth Avenue, New York, for the Easter Parade."

"Circa 1924: Jean Wilson gives the Easter parade on Fifth Avenue a novel touch, appearing in her modified Japanese pyjamas."

"10th April 1898: Men and women walk with their backs to the camera, wearing formal top hats and dresses, in the Easter Parade, on Fifth Avenue, looking north from below Forty-First Street, New York City."

Don't Worry About What To Wear On Sunday

I have something cute, an it is 'One size fit's all. '

Easter is colorful and fun

but it can be quite a job !!

That's why I have hired these little guys to paint, and hide the eggs.

Easter is about bunnies.

And these little bunnies.

Not these Bunnies !

Yes, Sweet bunnies.

And baby chicks.

And Easter Parades.....................
