Bell House

Paige and I usually go out to lunch when she comes over. One of our favorites is Bell House. It’s located right here in Shelbyville. The house where it’s located was built in 1902, and has been lovingly restored by the owners Bob and Sue Andriot. It’s a beautiful addition to the heart of the town where we live. The food is fresh and wonderful. They are open for lunch and in the Fall they plan on being open for dinner on Friday and Saturday nights.

Here is a peek inside. It’s great to have a local restaurant with such a lovely ambiance.

Our hosts Bob and Sue Andriot

Here is a look at what we had. Yummy , Aunt Emma’s Chicken Salad with fresh fruit and a warm bread stick and the best potato soup I’ve ever had and ,of course, a mouth watering brownie with ice cream,chocolate syrup topped with a strawberry.

Would you like a look at the menu?

My new model

I had Paige model these earrings for me. I’m pretty pleased with the way they turned out.

I think she’ll work out.

She’s been working hard with rehearsal’s for  Suessical the Musical, and sitting for me to take pictures of my earrings (not easy, it takes me forever to get it right). Busy girl.

Hope you all have a lovely week-end.

 

Where oh where has my living room gone?

Paige was here on Wednesday and had fun being a clothing designer. She used my mannequin that I display jewelry  with. She’s such a fashionista.

 

She’s my great pal and we always have fun together. We have a lot in common. We both love going to the antique shops in town, having lunch at McKinley’s, also in town. And, Barnes and Noble is another hangout for us. Half-Price books gets our business too.

But just hanging out to be together may be my favorite thing to do. BTW you’ll be seeing more of her since I’ve decided to use her as my model to get photos of my jewelry.

Now, on to the question of where did my living room go?

Tyler and Grandpa have a new toy. Thomas the Train……

Of course, They can’t put it away when they’re done playing because the track would get messed up. We can’t have that after all the trouble they went through to build it.

Hmmmmm, there’s a truck on the track….What should we do?????  

 

I think for these two boys I could get used to a train in my living room.

I’ve been featured !

 

Kim Ries of the Bluegrass Etsy Street Team posted  an article about me on the team blog. I’m so excited!!! This is such a wonderful and generous group of women and I’m pleased to say that I’m a part of this group. Check out the article and while your there click on some ( or all ) of the links there. I promise you’ll see some delightful things.

How do you like these?

I’ve still been getting more photos.These are some of  the latest.

Still doing a lot of  fusing.

I’m trying to get a lot more earrings going for all the shows that I have coming up.

I’ll be posting a list of those soon.

Time with Ty

Hubby had a day off yesterday so we had Tyler spend the day with us. Went to the farm down the road to buy some watermelon and corn to have with dinner. They have a petting zoo there and we stopped so Tyler could feed the animals.

  We had a good time. It was hot out so we couldn’t stay to long. I think he looks so cool in his shades. I must say he ate well at dinner. Besides dinner he had his fill of the wonderful juicy watermelon and corn on the cob,fresh from the field. Mmmmmm.

 Our DIL gave us some tomatoes and a red pepper that she grew in containers on their deck.I cooked up  the pepper with some olive oil,Italian seasonings and garlic. Oh so good.

Hope you all have a lovely week-end.
