Flowers always make people better, happier, and more helpful; they are sunshine, food and medicine for the soul.

This week it has been hovering around zero degrees or below! I thought it would be nice to share my indoor gardening photos. It gets me through these next few months until I can really get outside and start!

Stay warm my friends....Spring is coming :)

I gratefully did not have a blue Christmas this year by any means. However, I am feeling blue after the Holidays as I always do now that my favorite time of year has past. So this year I thought I would accept that blue, surround myself by it and look forward to my second favorite time of year! My inspiration? Cupsogue beach, West Hampton.

I have been lucky enough to live half my life on the beaches of Long Island, and half my life enjoying beautiful mountains and lakes. This life has allowed me to fall in love with all that is nautical and really all that is blue.

Beach sand surrounding candles and a touch of blue in the carpet.

My beach inspired art work that were wrapped like presents.

Blue after Christmas...

And finally since it's still below zero in Vermont, a cozy blue blanket to cuddle up next to the fire. Looking forward to coming back home this summer to the beaches of L.I. and looking forward to boating on the lake...sigh......
