I got what they call a "bridge camera." It has alot of the features of an SLR, but easy like a point and shoot with 15x zoom wide angle. I am having fun with it.
The ivy is really greening up!
The lilacs are in full, aromatic bloom.
Here are some of the goodies I decorated the tables with for our church breakfast, after sunrise service this morning...
A little garden shed birdhouse Mr. Tennis brought home...
And look at this old beauty I found a couple of weeks ago. I an itching to fill her with flowers!!!
Some sunny yellow :) 
I love my Granny's cabinet, so I thought I would add some olden things...
I love all my things, and I loved my Granny especially :)
Do you not just adore this scale??? I have been looking at them on ebay, but found this one in my own area!
And, the cracker tin. So neat!
The lobby at the beautiful Palmer House. My favorite hotel to stay at in Chicago. This is where we hang in the evening to people watch, sip a drink and talk :) 
The Walnut Room in Marshall Fields on State Street. Sorry, but I can't bring myself to say Macy's.
Here is our table. The flower show was at the store, so live flowers everywhere! What luck! 
Looking down from an upper floor...
One of a local florist display...
Looking up at the beautiful mosaic ceiling... 
Another haunt of ours, The historic Berghoff... 
A menu from the 1930's hangs on the wall... 
Let's go inside...
We brought Granny's hoosier cabinet over from the Daisy Inn, and here it sits in my breakfast nook. Granny and I sure did alot of noodle and cookie making on that old cabinet :) 
A larger view of the nook... 
The other end of the kitchen... 
The living room... 
The fireplace and window seat area... 
The dining room... 
And the opposite end... 
The stairway, which leads to two bedrooms and a bath... 
My front door, which is original to the house...
My kitchen cupboards... 
To the left... 
To the right. The wallpaper has been up for around 10 yrs, but I love it so, I haven't changed it... 
My little pantry cupboard...
Take another look... 
I found these sweet little tole lamps... 
Love the painted detail and that sweet little olden switch! 
They are perfect for the Early American mantel. Hope everyone has a great weekend!
