How To Stay Cozy During This Cold Snap (TFT Party)

Hi dear friends, welcome back to the Thursday Favorite Things party. If you are one of those stuck in the below freezing, below zero, blizzard areas of the U.S. you have my deepest sympathies and heartfelt prayers for warmer weather ahead. I, honestly, cannot even imagine. However, I do love to get Cozy on these winter days, whatever the climate. There were definitely some wonderful ways to warm up, hunker down, or just warm the heart, which is the best way of all, right?
So, then, onto my Features for this week.
Michelle from Thistle Key Lane's How To Create a Cozy Winter Bedroom was just exactly on point and so beautifully done, I had to share to of her Cozy room! Don't you just love quilts and trays?! My go-to's for cold weather, as well.

Hello Sweet friends and welcome back. Well, Memorial Day has come and gone and it seems we are all focused on the Summer months ahead of us.  I hope you had a chance to enjoy the weekend. As for me and my family,  we were abundantly blessed to celebrate my Dad's 86th Birthday this past weekend, birthdays are not something we take for granted anymore. As well as my eldest Sister.s big 60th! Yes, my mother was kind enough, back in the day, to have their first born child on my Father's birthday! It was a great day.
This is just a few of us. We are quite a large crowd now, when we all get together.  So, on the thought of celebrating and the new Summer Season arriving, I chose some Features that I felt reflected this time of year. I hope you enjoy them. Thanks for joining me once more.

Not only was I struck by the Royal Wedding last week, but also by the abundant need to spring flowers in and embrace the Season's changing times. I was so pleased to see I was not alone.

Spring Is In the Air on this Thursday Favorite Things

Hello Sweet friends. One thing is for certain, Spring is in the air. Even if it is still a month away, it seems to be popping up all around from the daffodils and hyacinth in my mother's yard to our wonderful TFT party. There is no shortage of creativity and beauty. With the flu season as serious as it has been this year, and no, my family was not immune, I was happy to see this recipe for Elderberry syrup in the party. Such a great way to combat it. I believe one of my co-hostesses, Nina from Vintage Mama's Cottage wrote about it, as well,  here.
Okay, off to check out all your beautiful links. Thanks so much for joining me.
