  2. Sigh, that #13 picture...I could definitely live with that! There's a British show on Netflix called Midsomer Murders which I love, in big part because of the little English cottages. Some of the pics remind me of them:)

  3. Sigh. We are drawn to so many of the same details. Love your selections here. My home projects are currently on hold as I struggle through this course. But we did just select our hardwood flooring that will go through the entire house. That will be a huge change. Hope you're doing well...miss you.. it's been hard to keep up my blogging these days.
