My Casa Bella

COME IN THE EVENING, OR COME IN THE MORNING;

COME WHEN YOU'RE LOOK'D FOR,

OR COME WITHOUT WARNING.

KISSES AND WELCOME YOU'LL FIND BEFORE YOU,

AND THE OFTENER YOU COME HERE

THE MORE I'LL ADORE YOU!

-Thomas Osbourne Davis



Welcome To My Casa Bella

My Casa Bella- means-my beautiful home- but it can mean so many other things. How you make your home a home. The sounds of children or pets playing. The aroma of scones in the oven or a lilac candle burning. The flowers blooming in your garden. The home grown vegetables ready to be picked. Grandma's quilt at the foot of the bed. A fire to curl up to with a good book. Or just a family spending time together with love, laughter and a good time.

Daydreaming

As I sit here relaxing on my loveseat with my DH and my kitties looking lazy watching old movies, I'm daydreaming. I'm on the laptop looking at pictures online of different decorating ideas. Either on Better Homes and Gardens site or Country Living. And I found some pictures of rooms that are calling out my name:


To wake up in the lovely room

Waking up under those soft, warm sheets on
a beautiful bed.
Don't you just love how cozy and feminine it looks?

Now its time to freshen up:

Do I take a warm bath or shower?
Maybe not this morning but
tonight, definitely,
with candles,
Michael Buble in the background
glass of wine
and a
good book.
Sounds wonderful.


Now I need coffee:

Who wouldn't want to make a cup of coffee
or tea
in this beautiful space?
Don't you just love the colors?
HMMM, ideas!!
I can picture myself rolling
out dough
for a warm apple pie
on that beautiful
marble island.
Or making a delicious
stew
on that gorgeous stove.
Can you smell it?

Now time to relax:

Need my book,
a cup of tea,
maybe a scone as well.
Curl up on the loveseat
with a warm
blanket
with nothing but quiet
and probably a cat or two,
can't forget them.
MMMMM!

It all sounds lovely.
One can daydream.
But I have to say, I do have a cozy home,
comfortable loveseat where
I curl up with a good
book or magazine
or
put on a good old movie.

My bed is wonderfully comfortable,
Can't get up in the mornings,
I enjoy making coffee
in my semi-new
kitchen.
But, every once in awhile, its ok to dream..............
