Honoured to be your host this weekend and I do pray you will all enjoy my theme.
As some of you well know from my Facebook post on Monday has had this song from The Sound of Music in my head, it stuck and I thought , oh well, inspiration..........
MY FAVOURITE THINGS.............
You may interpret the theme any way you wish, but I chose to go literally with the words, though keeping in mind, if I went over the x 3, might get chastised yet again by boss-man Mr Mitch
Raindrops on roses
And whiskers on
kittens
Bright copper kettles
…………………
And warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with
strings
These are a few of my favorite things
Cream colored ponies
And crisp apple strudels
Door bells and sleigh bells
And schnitzel with noodles
Wild geese that fly with the moon on
their wings
These are a few of my
favorite things
Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
Snowflakes that stay on my nose and
eyelashes
Silver white winters that melt into
springs
These are a few of my
favorite things
When the dog bites
When the bee stings
When I'm feeling sad
I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don't feel so bad
From a sunny but cooler South Africa, wishing you an absolute fantabolous weekend.
Much Love
Marianne
Hi Marianne!! Thanks for hosting this week. Nice theme, gives folks lots of scope!! I love your three shots. The 'raindrops on roses' is beautiful and the kitties are just tooooo cute :-)) The copper kettle looks like it's seen some action in it's time.
ReplyDeletea pleasure Mitch, thank you for asking me.
DeleteThat kettle is one of the first electric ones, for sure, and ............. it still works, believe it or not. Found it in an ole antique store at the coast.
Awww, one of my favorite songs...and some of my favorite things, also! They are all beautiful, and they go together so well...same as the words of the song...which you have me singing now. Love it!!!

Beautiful Marianne and they would be mine too. Especially the top two. Love that song too and I do believe you will have all of us singing it by the end of the weekend. LoL

Thank you Shayna and when we are finished with that song, I have got this silly song in my head from the King and I "shall we dance". Must have to do with having all those Disney Videos out for Les' grandsons to watch. It is raining here , the weather is really miserable . Typical Easter Rain and Wind.
