Like all bloggers, I LUV reading sweet comments (and writing them too!!).<br />Up to now, never had any problems with the Papyrus font - I used a different one in my earliest posts, too. I find it much nicer and cozier than the std blog fonts.<br />Until my next visit to your lovely blog, take care and have a great day!Ritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16444960022589594755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8068759024071897566.post-8870835326549834342009-11-23T12:54:42.513-08:002009-11-23T12:54:42.513-08:00Same with me!

Ever since I was a little girl I imagined myself living in a little thatched roof cottage surrounded by a cobblestone fence with a white gate. Right now I live in a southern style home on a golf course, so no cottage yet.<br />However, I'm still dreaming.Sissie's Shabby Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01142205878984008123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8068759024071897566.post-19993977795756270882009-11-20T09:17:51.636-08:002009-11-20T09:17:51.636-08:00What a wonderful collecction!!!

If while living in the burbs working software jobs, someone had told me that Hubby & I would be building a cottage ourselves in the middle of the woods in our mid-50s, I would have laughed.

I should post my collection. It's small but much like yours. <br />You know, Mary Engelbreit (I'm never sure how to spell her last name!) wrote about the cottage-style home (it was large though) that she walked by as a child. She bought it a few years back! Who ever gets to do that? If you find one of her books that she published several years ago you can see it. <br />I need to look for my pictures. They would make a great photo grouping in my newly-remodeled downstairs area. <br />Love this!<br />Karen<br />Ladybug CreekKarenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04323076493744748557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8068759024071897566.post-69274677932847290872009-11-20T05:24:47.887-08:002009-11-20T05:24:47.887-08:00Such wonderful cottages and memories too.
