  • Southern Squirrel IQ Test

    A few weeks ago, I posted about some great project for the birds in your yard as well as a fun little project for the squirrels. Well, I went ahead and made this cute little project. I just got tired of chasing off squirrels and having my dog out after them. I figure, if you…

  • Southern Pretty

    When I was at the Farmer’s Market this week, I saw this sweet little flower arrangement. I thought the pretty creamer it was in was just adorable. It was priced right and only $4.00! I happily purchased it and the sweet little creamer and the pretty flowers have been sitting here on my desk giving…

  • 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…
