  6. Wonderful selection of purple. I am so jealous that you had a fire in your kitchen. (We go years without using our fireplace...it LOOKS good though.) A crackling fire does sound so cozy and relaxing. Dr. Porter would probably want to curl up on the hearth and snooze (if it's not too high - not a big jumper, he wouldn't win jumping ribbons). Gucci looked ready to get on with the chores. Let's go mom!!

    Porter is so-so tired of the heat. Even with fall beginning this week we haven't seen any sign, yet. Enjoy your delightful cool evenings. Nice post!

  7. Nice collection, I think the one with the Dahlia in it is my favorite. And I must say, I like your paintings better than the ones by the artist you featured in the post below.
