Lavender and Lace
Happy May!
You know, I have determined that IF I didn't live in a yellow house, I would have to live in a PINK house! And it would have flowers blooming in the gardens like these....
Yesterday, lucky lucky me, got to spend the day with Rhoda! She is just adorable AND loves to do the same things that I do... and yesterday we did several of those things - shopping, talking AND eating! We visited several shops that Rhoda will share on her blog, Southern Hospitality, AND we stopped and smelled the roses at this delightful tea room -
And as if this place wasn't SWEET enough, we treated ourselves to one of these delicious desserts too......
Sigh. What a WONDERFUL day ... thank you Rhoda for the extra sweet memories! Friends Forever!
xo,
Kim




























It is so wonderful that the two of you have been able to spend time together.
Lavender and Lace looks absolutely delightful. We have a fine linen store here by that name, and it is wonderful, too.
I can't think of anything more perfect than a pink or yellow house.

HI Kim...what a delightful little tea room! The tea houses in my city have all closed up for one reason or another and I certainly miss going there. These photos remind me of some sweet moments with my girls.

I discovered your site and have so enjoyed it. I love the Paula Deen Tour. We plan a vacation to Hilton Head and we will now spend some time in Savannah.
I like your yellow house and I dream of a front porch.
My husband and I pastor a church in WV.
I am a mommy of 2 children. CK out my site, I am adding you to my favorites.
The tea house looks devine... Nice to meet you.

Kim, you took my breath away with this magical pink post. I loved everything from the pink house to the pink flowers and that decadent looking dessert.

Hi Kim, I must admit I'm a little envious of your lovely afternoon. But ahh, I will think of that wonderful tea room, the beautiful roses, and the lovely lace curtain in the window when I get stressed today! Thank you, Cassie

I must admit....I'm so jealous! I want to spend a day like that with you too.
Isn't Rhoda sweet? I'm so glad she and I have been able to spend time together several times...and will again soon.
What a cute place and those desserts look delish!

I agree Kim!
I love Pink and I would love to have the opportunity to decorate a little cottage completely in the soft shades of pink.
I love all of your pictures. Thanks for sharing!

Sounds like a perfect way to spend the day and you have the wonderful pictures to show for it.
The gardens are beautiful and so is that cake-lol. Yummy.
Have a great weekend.

hmm.. it's nice, but you know, it's really floofy. i know that's the style they're going for, but it's OVER THE TOP. and your place is perfect... for me. i love all the red you use in it. and yellow is a sunny bright colour, but it's not so incredibly feminine that it hurts. you know?
