My Pink Tree

MY PINK TREE WITH TRAIN TRACKS & ONLY
ONE PRESENT, I BETTER GET WRAPPING

I have been teased lately on whether I really have a tree of pink ornaments in my home. I often tell people of my beloved tree, but rarely have the occasion to share it with friends. So I break my unwritten rule and I'm posting a few shots of my home.
MY FAVORITE ORNAMENT

SILLY LITTLE SNOWMAN


FOUR INCH ORNAMENT


EVERY BRANCH IS PACKED





Last Minute Gifts

It's the last weekend before Christmas and we have been blessed with snow. Snow, snow, snow and it looks like more is on the way.

HIHO, WITH A BLANKET OF SNOW AT THE FRONT DOOR

It felt so genuine to say "Merry Christmas" as I shoveled with snowflakes drifting in the breeze. Maybe it's the Buffalo in me. ( I was born and raised in Buffalo New York, yup lots of snow.) The small retail shop owner in me is not as thrilled with the snow. But I was thrilled to see my paperwhite bulbs coming up. Lets see, snow and paperwhites it's beginning to feel like Christmas.
PAPERWHITES BEGINNING TO SPROUT
Well the last of the small fluffy owls are all gone and many of the trees in the shop are looking picked over, but we still have some super gifts for you last minute shoppers. We put together some gift baskets!
