new chick

Had 6 chickens, 2 were taken by something, added 4 of these little puffs- so no we have 8! Hows thats for some homeschool math? And a reason to add some serious cuteness!

Inside on another evening listening to soft summer rain I am catching up on some of my favorite blogs (which have pretty much completely taken the place of magazines at this point). I came across a Pear Tree mention in Daryl's Vermont Cottage.  Daryl has steadily been renovating her fabulous home in the most fun french cottage style. I just love that she isn't rushing the process and seems to be enjoying every step of it.  

Oh, and here is what the rain does on the lady's mantle:

Everything will be okay

Facebook!

The Pear Tree now has a Facebook Page, thanks to Wendy for figuring out how to make it happen. Please join, it might be the easiest way for me to share with you Pear Tree news, specials & events.

I am not sure what these two images have to do with each other. The first is a picture of The Pear Tree before it was The Pear Tree. Right after we bought it- pretty different isn't it? It looks good in all white, although I didn't consider it at all when it was time to paint. I have been digging up some old pictures lately and will post some of the process up to date. Its nice to see how far we have come.

New jewels!

Sneak peek- I have been waiting for this order and it's here! Such favorites in pretty blues and greens. All will be on display as we ramp up for spring. I am also hoping to grow the new web store and add some jewelery.

Sweet little birdhouse, isn't it? 

We had a satisfying blend of manual and mental labor today,  allowing for some well-earned deck time with Bob Dylan & a beer. Days like these remind me why I live in the country. 

By the way, I saw the first peeks of seedlings in the cold frame. Soon there will be fresh salad.
