House and Garden

Rarely do I sit and read a book that is full of gorgeous pictures. As is often the case, I flip through the pages devouring the beautiful scenes before me while overlooking the printed page. Not the case with this book. As soon as it was delivered I found myself sitting at the kitchen table actually reading what Bunny Williams had to say about her An Affair with a House. It was like sitting with an old friend as she shared her life and the details of her home.

As I read, thoughts of what I should be doing crept in. I promptly swept them aside, grabbed a cup of tea and headed for the living room and a comfy chair. The afternoon was spent visiting with Bunny.

I finished the book in just a few short hours and closed it feeling uplifted and inspired. As I looked around my humble home, I found myself thinking, "I could do that there" and "if I just moved this like this . . ."

Bunny also wrote On Garden Style which was just delivered to my door this morning. Guess what I'll be doing this afternoon?
