Au revoir mes amis....

Bon jour...I am excited to tell you all that today my husband and I are leaving for a month in Romania.

We are off to visit our son, Michael, and his family. We have not seen them in well over a year. So needless to say I am very excited about our upcoming visit. We will be staying with them and touring Romania together.



However, that means I must take a "mini vacation" from this blog while we are traveling. Don't worry, I shall return in early June. In the meantime I cordially invite you to take a peek at my first attempt at travel blogging. Please visit us at Posting From Afar

Not sure how successful I will be as I have never blogged while traveling, hmmm.



In the meantime don't forget to enjoy your {View}

See you soon, Catherine

Easter treats...

You'll wake up on Easter morning, And you'll know that he was there, When you find those choc'late bunnies, That he's hiding ev'rywhere.
Gene Autry


All I really need is love, but a little chocolate now and then doesn't hurt!

May your Easter {View} be filled with love and lots of chocolate!

Bunnies and chicks, oh my...

While visiting my daughter in Virginia awhile back we spent an afternoon exploring tiny antique shops. I found several sweet vintage post cards which I will share over the next few days. This postcard has a one cent postage stamp, can you imagine. It also has a beautifully hand written note on the back. A teacher wishing her student a Happy Easter.
If you havn't visited "The Vintage Moth"
please do. She shares delightful vintage clip art.
What Easter sweetness is popping into your {View}...

Pretty roses...


Today is my birthday and my sweetie pie husband gave me a beautiful bouquet of roses. We live in the Pacific NW and it is grey rainy and snow flurries on and off. This is not my idea of spring...lol! But now we have fresh roses in "da house"
Sure hope your {View} includes some pretty spring flowers...
