In Evora, Portugal, there are many men hanging around chatting with their buddies in the Praça do Geraldo or the main square. What a great place to people watch. I wonder what they are talking about. They have probably known each other their entire lives. There aren’t many women of the same age group out […]
I can’t say looking at photos of laundry rooms inspires me to do laundry but looking at the photos does inspire me to get organized! I love these rooms. My laundry room is mango orange (which is really bright) and it has one yellow wall. I wanted to make it bright and fun. With matching […]

Looking at these photos inspire me to add brick to the driveway, completely re-do the front porch with brick and then there is the walkway. I’d love to make the walkway all brick and landscape with flowers and […]
I DVR all the House Hunters International episodes that are on HGTV. For those who don’t know this show, it’s about people from the U.S. or England who are relocating to another country. We join them in their home search. Ultimately they choose between three places. It is so inspiring, especially for me, to see […]
There is pink and then there is PINK. I was never one to like pink. Maybe it was because I am a girl and I’m supposed to like pink. Now that I have a daughter, who absolutely loves pink, she has opened my eyes to the color. It feels like a new color to me! […]
I took this picture in Krakow, Poland. The two chatting ladies remind me of my Grandma and Great Aunt who was/is Polish. They would always dress up and never dress down with a pair of pants. I wonder who these ladies are and what they are talking about. Does looking at old pictures inspire you? […]
