these are a FEW of my favorite things......

(besides my family, of course!)

~the Crave Salad at the Flying Star Café in Albuquerque New Mexico
(Bleu cheese, toasted almonds, field greens, fresh strawberries, tart apples, oranges & dried cranberries tossed in Tomatillo Lime Vinaigrette) i'm craving one now!

~the ocean…..every part of it

~antique stores….i don’t know anything about antiques….i just buy what I love

~rainy days…….. love the way it makes the whole day an experience

~music……all kinds….music is like a fragrance to me…..i can remember a time in my life when i hear certain songs

~photographs.....i love spending days just going through pictures….it is a moment stopped from running away….to be shared again

~chandeliers......i only have two that are special….but if I could, I would have them all over the house

~dishes……rather than shoes, or purses or clothes…..i could buy a new pattern of dishware about every couple of months….i fall in love with colors and patterns….

~hydrangeas…......i wish I would have known I loved them when I lived where I could grow them!

~mermaids.....i would love to have a figurehead of a mermaid off an old ship in my house
