It forced us to move all of our downstairs furniture…

Autumn greetings! It definitely feels like fall here in Northern California as the trees are slowly shedding their leaves. I gave myself a few days to recover from my trip to Paris and Amsterdam and now I’m feeling back to normal. I ordered supplies for a few DIY projects I have planned for the holidays which are just around the corner. We’re hosting both Thanksgiving and Christmas in our California home so I’ll be doing more decorating this year since we were away last year. Thanksgiving is only six weeks away! Time always seems to fly a little faster this…

The Dutch are proud of their botanicals, their world famous tulips are not only a major export but bring crowds of visitors to their country to see them in bloom each spring. I decided to visit in the fall instead and arrived by train in Amsterdam in late September just as the leaves were beginning to turn.

The calm I felt strolling around Amsterdam was a most…
