Mosaic Mondays @ Little Red House

There’s Nothing Better Than “Reds”

Homemade Cherry Cobbler!!!

Red Handled Spoon and Red Striped Vintage Stemware

I really love Red Cherries on a thrifted dish

Little Red Chicken Bowls

The most famous “Red Phone, Call Me”…

I hear that Sue loves Red too!!!

Monday Memories…

Happy Monday…

I just thought I would share some summertime photos that I’ve collected in the past few months…

In other words…nothing new going on here…

Words of Wisdom found on a restaurant’s bulletin board…

This car reminded me of this…

I hope I haven’t insulted some macho guy about his car, but it just reminded me

of sunflowers !!!

 

Just a random shot of some corn…we are basically an agricultural area and we have lots

of acres of corn and soybeans…yes it is an allergy sufferer’s “paradise”…

The ivy is still growing up the front of my front porch…it has been too hot

to do anything about it…

We saw this at a concert recently…he/she wasn’t the entertainment,

just someone in the audience…makes you wonder where I went, doesn’t it???

This is one of my very favorite photos of this summer. Col. and Mrs.. Harding…they lost a political race

but it awes me at what they won…the admiration of so many people in our area for one of the

true heroes of the US… (Col. Harding is the 20the most decorated person in the US Armed Forces)

Barbara is the wife who gave him the strength…I’m so proud to call this couple our friends!!!

P.J. Kellogg, a local Marine, ran 50 miles in the horrible heat honoring his fallen comrade, Izzy O’Bryan, and my blogger buddies

emailed Izzy’s Mom which made me a proud blogger…what a wonderful community we have formed, coming

from all over the world “in friendship”…

RIP Izzy…

A “Man Sized” Rooster!!!

Welcome to my little “Rooster Party”…the party may be little but that rooster…

let’s just say that his growth has not been stunted!!!

Cousin “Fred the Farmboy” might be bringing him…

This little teapot jumped at the chance to come to the party…she even brought her baby chick!!!

 

They came dressed in their finest yellow and orange silks for this special day!!!

 

They are so excited to come today…they came all the way from the thrift shop where they

had been so bored for so long!!! A little fluffing of their feathers and some new silk clothes were all they needed…

 

Their friend “Red Rooster” is struttin’ his stuff to get to the party on time,

he is coming from the same thrift shop but was living on another shelf…

 

Isn’t he a strutter…looking good on his special platter???

 

He came all the way from California!!! He calls home “Poppy Trails by Metlox”…

 

I think everyone is here…have a seat!!!

 

 

I decorated your chair with a couple of “roosters”…

 

Those Daisy dishes and crystal work well with our “chicken” dessert bowls…

 

Your natural fiber placemat and vintage silver are in place…

 

The “City Cousins” are cooped up in the picket fence tray…

 

Vintage silver is tied with twine along with your napkin…

 

Sunflowers accentuate the little “Brown Hen’s Table Cover”…

The tablecover is a specialty of Lowe’s Professional Painting Tarps…

 

Keeping these two behind the picket fence is necessary…

 

No party is complete with out our stars…”Salt and Peppa”

 

 

 

This Rooster Party stars the following…

Fresh “Lettuce” Salad with Fresh Tomatoes

Corn on the Cob
