Musings for a Monday Morning

Beth Ann Chiles/ Writing/ 10 Comments/ 441

Good morning (or afternoon or evening or whenever you are reading this) to you. I am feeling a bit reflective at the moment and sometimes it just seems right to spend a bit of time writing those reflections down so I can retrieve them later. Continue reading →

Miniature Tea Set on Teapot Tuesday

Beth Ann Chiles/ Tea and Teapots/ 9 Comments/ 444
