These beautiful rooms were designed by Scott Sanders, and can be found online here.
ENJOY
I have always wanted a greenhouse, and when I do finally splurge, I hope that it will be so beautiful.
This garden is featured in Traditional Home magazine online in the Gardening and Outdoors section.
The property has an overflowing herb garden.
This outdoor room is a perfect place to enjoy the beautiful view and the fragrances of the garden.
Can you imagine walking up to pick the oranges for your orange juice after you take your morning dip?
I am ready to roll up my sleeves and get my hands in the dirt. Spring has finally sprung, and I have the bug!
THE GOSSIP GIRL CAST
Well, the season of Gossip Girl will continue tonight, after the winter hiatus, on the CW. In our home, and my daughter's college dorm, this means a place in front of the tube on Monday nights.
I am surprised that we found a show that we could enjoy sharing this much after Girlmore Girls ended (sniff, sniff.) We were joined at the hip when that show was on. It was a date not to be broken!
Nothing will ever be able to take the place of Gilmore Girls, but we do enjoy sharing notes on Gossip Girl. The fashions are great, and you can just about be assured of finding out what the next trend will be.
So here's to you ~ Serena, Blair, Chuck, Dan, Jenny, Nate, Vanessa, and the newbys!
Wishing you continued success !!!
Chuck, Chuck, Chuck...
and Blair, Blair, Blair...
Serena...

Dan...

along with the rest of the cast.
So grab a plate of nachos, along with your favorite soda, and ENJOY!
I will not be on a regular schedule this week. It is exam and paper week :(.
Embracing Etiquette will be back in a few.
See you soon,
Teresa

Embracing Etiquette with Teresa continued... see introduction post (1-29-10.)
Handling Mistakes
It may be embarrassing to get a name wrong or totally forget a name, everyone makes mistakes, and it is not rude.
If you can’t remember a name …
Do Not Panic! At least attempt to introduce the person. The person may see that you are having a difficult time and introduce themselves. If the person is wearing a name tag, look at it. Otherwise, apologize quickly and tell them you have suddenly forgotten their name. Do the same if you can’t remember their last name. Call them by their first name, and let them know that you have forgotten or do not know their name. Then … drop it.
If you get a title wrong…
This is difficult to remember at times. Do they want to be called Mrs., Ms., Miss? Do your best on these, and they may correct you. If you are wrong on rank, they may correct you. If you are not certain, ask them later. These are not bad mistakes and are not rude. Try to remember the next time you see them.
If you mispronounce a name …
If you know that you cannot properly pronounce a name, ask the person how to pronounce it. Try not to make the same mistake again, but it is an acceptable and understood mistake. If you know that you will be introducing someone with a name you are unsure of, you should ask someone who knows.
I hope that you have enjoyed this post.
See you soon,
Teresa
