  • Southern Wonder

    I can’t believe that it is already Labor Day, which to me means the end of summer. We even had a bit of a cool down in the weather here for a few days so it really felt like fall was arriving. Of course, it will still be a couple of weeks before fall really…

  • Southern Ramblings

    I’ve been “rambling” a lot lately. By rambling, I mean walking. Generally, I spend my day at my desk, creating websites, blogs and social media as well as other internet marketing activities, so my daily walk is very important! I thought I’d show you a couple of the more challenging parts of my walk. This…

  • Southern Dogwoods and Daffodils

    Okay, the truth is that dogwoods and daffodils don’t actually bloom at the same time around here. There are still a lot of daffodils blooming but they are starting to fade as the dogwoods take center stage. Oh, and the redbuds are pretty spectacular too! Truly, one of the most wonderful benefits of our morning…

  • Southern Wednesday

    Getting ready for my next appearance on The Margaret Banks show. This week is about turning your passion into profits, which is actually perfect for bloggers! In the meantime, trying to get time to be still a bit and enjoy the world around us. Like a red sunset. You know the saying: Red sky at…

  • Southern Spring Countdown

    The daffodils are starting to pop out and soon the most wonderful metamorphosis of all will be taking place. Soon it will be SPRING! I have even added a Spring countdown clock to the sidebar on the left. This seems to have been an unusually cold winter and, although I have Spring Fever every year,…

  • Southern Winter Color

    Yesterday, I was writing about the monochromatic color of the snowy world. Well, Jim Gaston of Gaston’s Resort in Lakeview, Arkansas proved me wrong. He has such an eye for finding that spot of color in the midst of the snowy white. Thank you Jim for once again reminding me what a beautiful area we…

  • Southern Stuff

    Here we are in Arkansas having yet another snowfall! Okay, it was pretty the first couple of times, but I’m ready to see some color! I’ve posted the above picture before and received many nice comments on my black and white photo, however, it is actually a color photo. Just not a lot of color.…

  • Longing for Southern Spring

    It is warming up a bit around here and I am really, really getting antsy for Spring! The other day, I was sitting in the car while my husband ran into a local store. While I was waiting, I noticed a lovely robin that landed on a winterberry tree and was having a feast. It…

  • Southern Winter Blooms

    It is that time of year. Time to bring in some of the branches from your forsythia and quince branches and force them to bloom inside! I love the early Spring when the first blooms begin and bringing in a few branches to get an early start just gets the fun started sooner. The quince…

  • Southern Garden Dreams

    I really used to dread January. After all of the color and celebration of the Christmas holidays, January just seemed so dull. What changed my mind about January was gardening! Yes, gardening in January. When I finally got around to enjoying gardening, I was in my late 30’s. As with most things, I got into…

  • Southern Wanderings

    While we were away, we enjoyed some beautiful things. If you missed yesterday’s post about the goats, be sure to check that out! Before the blizzard, we went out and saw some of the Christmas lights. Of course, we played Christmas music as we drove around looking at the lights. It just wouldn’t be the…

  • Southern Fall Colors

    Fall around here is just beautiful. I love the colors and the crisp bite in the air and even the more common warm days and cool nights. If only fall could last forever. Of course, I say that about every season, well, except winter. I don’t mind winter for a while but I am usually…
