Happy St Patrick day!!!

Happy St Patty's day everyone, and remeber St. Patrick is one of the few saints whose feast day presents the opportunity to get determinedly whacked and make a fool of oneself all under the guise of acting Irish, so everyone have fun.

Deco Dames

If you ask my mom, she would say I am no where near being what a deco dame is. I am by no means glamorous or elegant. But I have always been entranced by ladies of old, the customs, manners, traditions and beauty of them. I have always been in love with history. Even as child, I remeber watching little women and little house on the prairie and wanting to climb into their worlds. So I guess this blog is my way of climbing into that world if only for a little a bit. I hope you enjoy it.
