no words for that


Here is my today's inspiration board. I'm swooning over that vintage looking McNeal ad and I love love love the no words for that quote. I wish I knew who's the source. And no, my fellow bloggers, Pinterest is not a source. That's like handing in an essay and writing 'my library' under bibliography! Sorry, I had to rub that in just a bit. [Update: The quote is from Brian Andreas's book Story People. Thank you LittleRus!]

Have I ever told you how much I love wooden stairs with white paint? If I haven't, then now you know. Wish that hallway was mine.

Today I'm having friends over for coffee and probably pan cakes and pecan pie. I haven't quite decided what to make but it will be something delicious. May this Tuesday treat you kindly!

  12. i'm so with you on the pinterest thing. it's my job to correct people's work a lot of the time, and sometimes i feel like reminding the community about best practices. but that's not what i wanted to say...
    i love this inspiration board so much, and i love that you were going to have friends over for coffee and pecan pie... yum!

  13. Such a beautiful, warm post, as are the words to accompany the imagery...

    p.s I agree about Pinterest. I don't mind a credit to Pinterest, as long as there is a further link to the original source. Sometimes I find things through layers of sources that night begin with Pinterest, but the end of it all MUST be credited! So glad you brought this up...
