Partridge NOT in a Pear Tree......
For a hand made ceramic piece this has tons of detail. I was going to put it in my etsy shop, but my daughter loved it. Her fav part is the eyelashes.............It is interesting what draws us to things. I know right away if I am going to get something. First comes the rush of adrenaline and then the grab!!!! She is 18, and try as I may to block out the fact that she will one day move out, she is getting her own design style!

It is turning cold here in South Georgia. I have been finding some really neat blogs lately.

Eye Candy
My Grandmother Stella May Boudreaux gave these to me. She has great taste and has a birthday tomorrow. She will be 88 years old. She is a blessing to me. I call her and my Grandpa almost everyday and have the best time chit chatting. I am 46 and still have them in my life. It is such a comfort to me to know they have each other and are there together.

antique find
While I did not buy this, (I think it was 45.00) I had never seen one except on Flickr. So it was fun to get a picture. Fernandina Beach and Amelia Island are such neat places to find "treasure"......
