As the season is about to change into a softer more gentle phase, so will my lifestyle.
During the winter I like to hunker down with comfort foods, fluffy down comforters and pages filled with various forms of entertainment.
As spring arrives I look forward spending less time indoors and more in my flower beds, catching up with neighbors after a long winter, and evening walks on the beach.
This photo was taken of my bedside table after a Blogger Book Swap. The pictures represent my life as a toddler on the lap of my mother {my favorite choice of seating} and as a wife on the arm of my husband just before dashing off to a formal event.
As with the seasons, our identities as individuals change over periods of time.

What a sweet b&w glimpse into your life!
Such a lovely corner view of your life! Love it in B/W!
Beautiful photo!
I feel the same way. It takes a lot to get me out of the house during the winter months. I would rather stay here in my cozy home surrounded by my family and favorite things, but look out when the weather breaks!!
Enjoy your day!

This is just beautiful. Thank you for sharing. What sweet reminders on your bedside table!
Great picture! Here's to spring and long walks on the beach...I'm so jealous!!!!
A lovely photo! I love the reflection in the table of the bottom book (things are too dusty at my house to EVER have a pretty reflection like that, so I tend to notice these things ;D)
You and I have very similar items on our bedside tables. I'm always reading books - can't get enough! Love that you have Jane Austen on your table - did you see "Persuasion" on PBS the other night? Loved it!
very pretty!!! : ) hoping that spring comes soon...
What a beautiful photo!

Your bedside table is so organized and pretty, I'd be so embarrased to shoot mine, LOL!!
I too like to hunker down in the winter, looking forward to sun, warmer temps and being outside, can't wait. ;)
Jo, I love this one. My nightstand is covered with books and magazines currently. I just can't seem to put them away!
Thanks for sharing!

What a lovely arrangement and perfect in b&w. I love little areas with frames and books and comfy things arranged.
I'm with you on the Spring thing. I think I can smell it coming in the air.
