If you haven’t been following me long you may not know that along with my passion for Paris, I also have a thing for farms. It may have something to do with all those episodes of Little House on the Prairie and The Waltons I watched as a kid. Whatever the reason, there’s a part…
Learning to Love My Home

Sneak Preview ~ Fabulous Fall
I’ve been living in denial but the calendar doesn’t lie. Tomorrow is the first day of autumn. I honestly don’t know how that happened. Didn’t summer only arrive about two weeks ago?
