Memory Lane Monday…A Little Princess

July 26, 2010 By Deanna Piercy 5 Comments

“A Little Princess” by Frances Hodgson Burnett   I was one of those kids who lived in my head most of the time.  Come to think of it, I still do.  Thinking, pondering, imagining, pretending, projecting…my mind was and is a swirl of activity.  Much of this tendency is book-fueled.  I learned to read in…

I had grand plans for a lovely post all about French home life and interior design but this has been “one of those days”.  Not necessarily a bad day but a rather busy one.  I had a hair appointment at 10:30 this morning and a few errands to run afterwards.  I then had a brief…
