Bells & Whistles @ CCC

CCC

 I made a Publix run yesterday, and treated myself to some pretties for the house. Roses were on sale $10.99 for 2 dozen gorgeous roses. Here is the first arrangement on my coffee table.

And peach roses in a wicker hurricane. I bought this at HG for candles, but it makes a great vase.

And a beautiful heirloom pumpkin. This grey one is named Jarrahdale and is more common in New Zealand and Australia. It is often used to make desserts.

It's so nice to be done with the heavy lifting at the house and to be able to spend time on beautiful details like this. Later this morning I have on tap a great Bloody Mary and Scottish Smoked Salmon. Living well is the best revenge. Happy Sunday and stay safe.

    1. Yes, I love Publix. I realized that in the South things are called "heritage" that we call "heirloom" up North. Interesting.

  8. The roses are perfect for those beautiful vignettes. I didn't know the grayish pumpkins were edible! I'll have to find one. My kids love pumpkin pancakes.

    1. Yes, most of the heirloom pumpkins are great for cooking - the white and knucklehead are the two exceptions.
