Happy Anniversary to me!

Yes 1 year today I wrote my first post!

What was I saying? I don't blog, I don't look at blogs, I don't want to seat on my wonderful fit b...in front of a computer? Well here I am and yes my b is bigger and you know what? Here is a list of reasons that makes me want to come back and post some more!

1. My English dictionary is expanding the more and more I write. I don't make sense sometimes and I make some of you smile when instead of goose bumps I write goose pumps! Kerri and I always said we need to write a new dictionary with all the new words I come up with!"Engletaliano"
2. I don't have to fly too far to meet my blouguettes friends, it feels we are in the same room.
3. I learned so much from everyone of you, your quotes, your comments, your like and dislike.
4. I am creating every day new things because of visiting with you.
5. I opened my etsy shop, that is doing well.
6. Yes I love telling you about food, what I will make for lunch or dinner. Who came to visit me or who I went shopping with. Why not!

and if one of these days I loose my memory it's all on my blog. Just check post #1 for Barn Sale, check post # 4 for soldering class, check pics of chickens post # 44.....and

On to new business

this tray is full of all the goodies that I got during last weekend shopping day with "Peperoncino" , Raffaele, Christie and Lisa.

I also on the tray have some vintage bottles. Jackie B. came to see me at Cottage Antiques and brought me a box of bottles and buttons.

I was thinking of having a give away and I will probably use something from this tray, maybe I will gift a bottle? a charm? a spoon necklace? a crown? what do you wish for?

I would love for you to # 1 leave me a comment with your wish ( one of the 4 items listed above) # 2 please spread the word to double wish. # 3 Pick your favorite photo from below and post it on your side bar linking to this post.

Arrivederci Rita
