A Kinder, Gentler Life

In life, there are certain things that separate us from one another.

There are kind souls who truly feel compassion for others.

I have been behind those racing through the toll booth to find out that my toll was paid by a kind person ahead of me.

Often, we meet someone who is just unbelievably rude in life or someone that flips us the bird for  turning right. 

It truly boggles my mind.

However, civility would rush over all if we simply used place cards for dinner parties!

Here’s the link I found, thanks to HGTV that I wanted to share you all of you!

Thanksgiving Place Cards

Although I own Christmas Place cards, I have lived a unruly life at Thanksgiving. 

Thank you HGTV for bringing order to my life!

Hope you enjoyed the light hearted post today!

Hi Deb...such a sweet post...I would use place cards but I already know who's going to be sitting at our table on Thanksgiving...It's always just me and the Boss....I like to think of us as Ina and Jeffrey....Ina can make a dinner party out of two people!!

Good Morning - I agree with you about the kindness going around these days - I wrote about it today too.

We have a very small gathering at Thanksgiving too, but the site is one I am saving. I never thought about going there and getting information and things like that. Thank you.

A Peak at 2010 for Fellow Taureans

Year 2010 Overview Taurus always gets tagged with things like "pleasure-seeking" and "materialistic." That's probably unfair, in most cases. You're just as good at dishing out the pleasure as you are at seeking it, and who doesn't like a few nice things around? Sadly, there's been just too much struggle in your life the last couple of years when it comes to those two very important parts of your life. Thankfully, 2010 marks the end of that long uphill struggle . Your pleasurable pursuits have been a little more restricted than you'd like over the course of the last two years or so. That's over with now, so ... game on! The big events this year will not so much be a matter of major happenings as they will be things that have been in the works and are slowly revealing themselves . In the last two years, you've put a lot of work into what makes you happy, while Saturn transited your solar Fifth House. Now that those pressures are finally bei...

Christmas in July Give A Way

What better way to celebrate the middle of summer with a give a way for one lucky blogging friend? Just because I want to, I will be giving away a Christmas box with an accordion album. This happens to be my design and I have already given one away last December. Sorry, Kate , you will have to sit this one out! This paper mache box holds an accordion album inside. More than likely, I will make a minor modification to the box before shipping it to its new home. I really love these vintage papers from Melissa Frances Scrapbook . Her collection of designs and patterns reminds me of a little sea side cottage. I can smell the ocean spray right now. These papers bring me back to a time when I think I would have loved to live…The Victorian Age. But let’s not fool anyone, I want all of the modern day luxuries. This paper on the left takes me back to a time when I played with cut outs. I was never a doll kid, but give me cut outs and I was happy for days. S o if you think you would ...
