Its has been a slow week at the cottage the rainy weather has me feeling a little lazy but I did manage too get a few things done. Someone really sweet;) knew that I'd love this chair and the rusty bucket in the background. So they both became small projects for me but I will only show the chair today and I'll share this@

I also picked up a few items while at Canton and Goodwill that I have yet to share. So take a look:

I also tried a new recipe ranch chicken. I just added ranch dressing to the chicken half way through the baking process and made a quick salad delish! Shan also made an after dinner drink that I loved!
 |
| Fresh Salad of arugula mushrooms roman tomato&feta |
 |
| Orange Cosmo/made by Shan |
Ingredients were simple:1 part Dekuyper (orange flavored) triple sec, 2 parts vodka, and 1 part cranberry juice. We garnished with a slice of orange.

| This sweet surprise arrived from an even sweeter bloggy friend it made me smile |
And we have already gotten a grocery list for the Thanksgiving holidays done nothing heavy. I will set up a cute buffet style table for our guest and I have already put together a centerpiece that is very simple and I love it!
I've been working on adding color to my porch and I am very excited about that I'll post those photos on Monday.
We have to take a trip to Hot Springs tomorrow for Shans appointment so during that trip I will make a list of purchases that I want to make for my kids. I hope Christmas shopping will be done by the end of the month but I still have time to search for specific deals. I have already purchased half the items so half the task has already been done.
I'm off to sleep I have lots to do. I'm looking forward to the weekend and hanging out with friends hope you have something fun planned as well. Enjoy!

I love the make-over on the chair..it looks great! I just adore the colour red.
The ranch chicken looks yummy! I use to love having three cheese ranch with my chicken, but I can't seem to find it over here in England.
Have a great weekend :)
Ok, girl you have some of the cutest kids (lol)! I like the chair, the pop of red definitely goes with the rest of the scheme of things in your place. And what a lucky find, I love that Vera Bradley tote:)!
Love the chair!
And thanks for giving me the option for thinking that those re-borns are weird.
Enjoy the weekend with your friends!

Hi,
Love the red chair!!! The chicken looks simpy yummy. I'll have to give it a try. I am making a shopping list. Going to hit the store Mon. or Tues. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
My Mom was such a collector in her younger days and she had quite the cane chair collection. I guess that is why I love them. I have a few in the attic that I will be draging out of the attic and painting soon thanks to your inspiration! I'm so glad you shared - I truly had forgotten about them.
The red chair is another perfect pop of red throughout your house.
The Cosmo sounds great. It's very similar to a drink I make that's called a cranberry bog martini which has the same ingredients just a little more cranberry and a few dashes of bitters. They're great for the holidays.
Got any good gin cocktails. I have a huge bottle of Bombay Sapphire I'd love to use.
Happy Thanksgiving!
You have been busy this week. I think you deserved that cosmo. :) Love the chair. Thanks for linking up to Motivated Monday at BeColorful

Hi Comeca! I just love the red chair. I want to own one too. It perfectly complemented your white painted wall.
I figure there are very few things that are not improved by a coat of glossy candy-apple-red paint. :) Thanks for visiting my blog!
That chair in red is super. I love red chairs. Have four myself. That dinner sure looks good. Yum!! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
