But I had to show you what I got in Calico.
Candles!
Actually BH was busy picking candles while I was looking around. Some of them have fun names like Buck Naked and Sex on the Beach. I don't know what those things are SUPPOSE to smell like but the candle version was very pretty.
This is our snacky jar. For the tea party I thought it would be fun to put all the candles in the jar. It's not quite right though. Maybe I'll put some shred in there. I don't know.
This was my find at Calico. Potpouri rocks! Rocks! Quartz if you must know. Is that wild! I'd never seen that before so I had to have some. They had bowls and bowls of these rocks. Different colors and scents. This one is Cinnamon Apple. Yum! I have it by the stove.I am cleaning like a mad woman. The house is really more dusty than anything else. BH said I could bring the girls into clean and I am still thinking about that. I know they wont clean all the little stuff like I will. I may have them come in to vacuum and scrub the kitchen appliences and the bathrooms.
I want to decorate for the tea. It will have a fall theme. All my fall things are out of my control for the moment so I will have to improvise. I hope to get some fresh pumpkins and dry corn to decorate. It is still a little early in the season and I've not found any yet.
IN OTHER NEWS:
I ran out to the barn where I keep all my stuff. While coming out I stepped down and saw something move. Looked like a lizard head and it recoiled back into the brick. Lizards don't move that way so I carefully stepped to the side to get a better look.
Snake!
Little bitty snake. Very pretty. Looked like it might be. Could it be? A rattler?
Indeed!
I jostle BH from football to take a peeky.
Sure enough. A baby rattler. I grabed my camera but I was busy worrying about BH who was bent on killing the MF.
He did. Without harm to himself thankfully. No pictures, sorry. To bad. It was very pretty. And small.
