Lucky Lucky Me

Yes...Monday was a lucky day for me...my Romantic Prairie Style book arrived in the mail and the best part of all...I WON it in a giveaway!!! The giveaway was hosted by Tami from HIGH STREET COTTAGE...she is a super friendly gal and I have enjoyed blogging with her...also she is loaded with creative ideas...go by and meet her...you will glad you did. As you know I have been sick, so this book came at a perfect time. I know Mr.CC is thinking...is she ever going to put that book down...yes honey I am...just hold on and give me a few more days. Thank you Tami...I LOVE IT and I will always think about you when I see it.
                                               Thanks for coming by and I hope you
                                                               come again,
                                                                    Linda

                                                        Look how cute Tami sent it!
                                        A cute little bag of seashells...just perfect for me!
                                           Also there was this darling "BIRDIE" gift tag
                                                and an"old" key...how do you know
                                                  that I love creative gift wrapping?

                                         Take a peek and see for yourself, why I LOVE IT!
                            Mr.CC and I are hoping that our new headboard turns out as
                                                     pretty as this one!
                                              It's fun to see things that you already have
                                                             in your own nest!
                                                A porch that's full of CHARM!!!
                                           Ohh...what an incredible looking dining space!
                                        Nifty Thrifty Tuesdays is still going on, so click here
                                                           to join in on some fun!

    Congrats on winning the new book! Don't you love getting packages when you're feeling under the weather? It's like an instant pick me up. And to be able to curl up under a blanket while thumbing through Fifi's new book has to make it the best possible package to receive. Love the packaging, too! Thanks for sharing.

    Hi Linda, no doubt that beautiful book will keep you happily entertained for hours on end. Hope you are feeling much better by now! I see you have red geraniums sitting atop your lovely new center island with stainless steel top. :) Can geraniums live indoors? Mine sure don't like the dust and wind. Take care and have a great weekend. Tammy
