I have been tagged by Cher, The Texas Women. Well, here goes... (1) I have lived in the same house for 37 years. (2) I was born in Seattle, Washington and grew up in Norman, Okla. (3)My favorite TV show is Friday Night Lights. (4) In the 70's my picture was in Texas Monthly, at a Gary Hart rally. I have also met Bill Clinton, Ann Richards and Alice Cooper! See Char you are sorry already you tagged me! (5) I once traded an antique trunk to a producer for tickets to a Oprah Winfrey show. (6) I met my husband in college on a geography field trip. (7) I am very afraid of bridges, heights and spiders!

Our "Country Home"

noreply@blogger.com (Whispering Pine Cottage) — Sun, 15 Feb 2009 21:59:00 +0000

I just finished reading the last issue of Country Home, and with sadness I close the magazine. I have to wonder if this is the end of just another magazine or perhaps the end of an era? Almost 10 years ago I opened my shop and "country" was a big part of my purchasing decisions. I wanted my store to have a feeling of classic, casual comfort - using antiques to decorate a cottage or cabin or home. What direction are we headed now? Antiques, collectibles and vintage seem an answer to me at a time when "green" is such a part of our lives and economy is everything. What do you think?
