Pink Saturday - March 12

It's Pink Saturday and Miss Beverly from How Sweet The Sound, our hostess with the mostess, says we can combine some green with our pink.

So, here is my bit of Irish

My great great grandfather on his wedding day 1833. He was born in Ireland around 1813 and immigrated to Canada around 1830. Don't they look like a happy couple?

For some real green, a pair of handmade sterling silver malachite earrings.

And for the pink, the bracelet you can win over at Lisa's Suburban Retreat.

Happy St. Paddy's Day!

Pink Saturday - Christmas 2010

For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.





My favourite Christmas song-done by IL DIVO. For me, this is what Christmas is all about.



We'll be having a quiet day, enjoying each others company. I am so lucky, my husband does the turkey! So yummy!

Merry Christmas everyone.

*Argentium Sterling Silver is sterling silver with less of the copper alloy. Copper is what makes sterling silver tarnish. Argentium is 92.5% pure silver with the balance a mix of germanium and copper. This makes Argentium silver harder, brighter and more highly tarnish resistant than traditional sterling silver.
