This is my 1,600th post since I began blogging in 2012, so I'm offering a giveaway: A tin of Harney & Sons Earl Grey Imperial Tea [30 sachets] and a Gracie China teacup. To enter just leave a comment between now and Sunday. I'll draw a winner and announce it on Monday. Thanks to everyone for following my blog over the years, and for your comments.
Our youngest granddaughter, 6-year-old Ellie, got her turn to spend a few days with us, arriving yesterday. She's the last of the younger grandchildren to visit before school starts back.
The first activity on the agenda was back-to-school shopping with Papa. When she got home and was looking at all of her things she declared, "This is the best day of my whole life!" ;-) It doesn't take much to make a six year old happy.
Showing off her new backpack.
Today we went to the indoor pool and water park.
And after dinner to the park.
Not sure what we'll do tomorrow. Maybe a movie. How are you spending these last few days of summer?
What a long lovely prize - I’ve never tried EG Imperial and I can’t pass up anything with a bird. The last days of my summer will be spent starting up my second/seasonal job and hoping I have some time to stitch this weekend as well. Thanks for the chance to win.

Reading about your fun life in those blog posts has been lovely. Thank you. I love a chance at using one of your teacups.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on reaching 1600!!! Don't think I've read all of them, but have been "dropping by" each morning, cup of tea in hand, to "visit" with you for at least the last four years or so. May there be many more to come!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Phyllis! I have really enjoyed your blog over the years.
