Good Morning from the garden. Nothing like a garden to lift one’s’ spirits. It certainly has been my savior through all of this. I am popping in for a quick post, Sunday Fun Stuff, and News.
Since we have been spending so much time in the garden I am thinking about sprucing up a couple of areas with some inexpensive fixes. Everyone is having sales. Why is it when everything is so cheap we don’t want to spend any money?
The only store I get in (well any of us) is Target so I always make a quick swish through their home and outdoor section while I am there if the store isn’t busy. They have some great inexpensive outdoor pillows. Pier 1 does as well. Here are a few of my favorites.
Janet from Shabbyfufu has a recipe for vegetarian sliders that look amazing here Vegetarian Walnut Sliders that are Better than Meat. I can’t wait to try these.
Is anyone else obsessed with Jane Pauley on CBS Sunday Morning? She is a breath of fresh air every week.
Do you read Emily A Clark’s Saturday Six? She always features a pretty home or two. Yesterday she featured this beautiful Illinois home by Alexandra Kaehler
Do you follow Karen Bunch of Garden Home and Party on Instagram? Karen has a knack for seeking out the most beautiful traditional interiors and gardens. Oh, and if you are in Southern California, she is now doing garden design.
And now for the news. Tomorrow I am super excited to be joining Vicki Archer, Beth Djalili, and Sandra Sallin. We are dishing on gray hair, how we care for it and why we love it. If you have been struggling with maintaining your color and are thinking about throwing out the dye join us! If you have no interest what so ever I am giving you fair warning!
Thanks for stopping by I so enjoy your humor, insight, and comments. They truly make my day. Thanks for reading Sunday Fun Stuff and News. Hope to see you tomorrow bright and early. You are going to love it.
Watching the Today Show was my morning ritual… until the network treated Jane Pauley so shabbily and dumped her for the younger Norville! Never watched it again, out of protest in Jane’s honor. Yes, I watch CBS This Morning now solely because of Jane.
Cindy,
Thank you for the shout out. I consider the garden my favorite way to relax and rejuvenate, especially now. Your garden is lovely and the first bloom of roses is always the best.
I’m happy to hear your healthy. Maybe by the end of May things will be a lot better.
xo,
Karen
Love love love your gardens! Showed my fiancé your climbing rise trellis just yesterday…swoon!! Love all the links today, I will be back to explore!
Love Jane Pauley and have watched Sunday Morning for years!! Can’t wait for the gray hair tutorial tomorrow. Not being able to get to the salon has me rethinking the dye. Actually starting to like what I’m seeing, but not sure I’m willing to endure months of growing it out completely. Looking forward to everyone’s ideas!!
This post made my Sunday morning! Love all the wonderful tidbits, sales and suggestions. Can’t wait for the “going grey” post..I now have a 1 inch stripe at my part line and a silver frame around my face😳
Your garden is an inspiration to all…..makes me want to go out and plant! I think I will start with an herb garden tomorrow!
Have you tried the Loreal root spray? It was a lifesaver when I was growing my dark brn hair out.
Love love my long gray hair. Don’t give up. I know it is hard.

Your garden is so beautiful!! I cannot imagine how you keep up with it!! We are working on the vegetable end of things!! It will be very interesting how things play out here in Umbria.
Cindy, I know I would be very interested if you could tell us about your Weight Watchers experience, and how that worked out in January. Which program do you follow, and what are your go to tips. Perhaps you will do a blog post, or could you email me directly? Between the homemade sourdough, focaccia, tortillas…. Are you still following along with Elizabeth Minchilli? This cooking and eating are a “thing”, for me at least.
Thanks for your positivity during this time. I really look forward to your posts.
Your garden is absolutely gIorious! Mine is finally beginning to green up — I walk around daily encouraging every sprout! Looking forward to your “gray post” tomorrow. I stopped coloring my hair years ago, but now thinking the grass needs a boost of care!
Have a great day!
Thanks for the “fair warning” about your topic of taking care of gray hair tomorrow with such great ladies…my transition is taking a lot longer than anticipated. Being I haven’t been able to get in for a good trim and blending of the grays since late January it’s so over due! A hair appointment and massage is first thing on my list of things to do when businesses reopen!
Thanks for sharing your beautiful gardens. Your posts are a breath of fresh air during a difficult time.
Love, Love Jane Pauley. Could you please help her with her style?
Or is that part of her charm?
