The Lord will indeed give what is good,
and our land will yield its harvest.

Greetings Sweet Friends,
Hope this finds you doing well, and maybe starting to
enjoy a bit of Spring weather.
It is cooler here at night but fairly warm in the daytime
and all the new growth and new leaves are showing up
everywhere, the grass needs mowing, and our neighbors
large azalea bush is gorgeous, and loaded with hot
pink flowers, so pretty and makes my heart happy
every time I look out our front windows.
Pictures today are of our 3 in one Birthday
Celebration from last weekend here at Cozy Place.
Since the house is still decorated for Winter,
I decided to go with a Winter themed table
as well.
Now on with my thankfuls...

#8
Thankful that our friends 102 and a half yr. old
Father is doing better. He had a bad case of
RSV flu, and had to go in the hospital on Sun
day evening, but he is doing considerably better
today (Tuesday) and hubby was able to go
visit him, so it seems the meds are working
and he might be able to go home in a few days.
Happy March Sweet Friends,
Hope your week has been a good one and that maybe most of you are seeing signs of Spring, we are, and then it was cold again yesterday but 78 degrees today. Likes to keep us guessing!! lol
This week has mostly consisted of celebrating
a lil bit, and get ready for our all 3 birthdays
in a week birthday bash on Saturday. Made
the Beef Stroganoff today, and lil darling
made the banana pudding, tomorrow I will
do the salad and bread, and that will
make everyone happy!! All gifts are wrapped
or should I say bagged!! lol Still need to set
the table, but pretty much know what I
am gonna do.....so that is helpful...
Pictures today are of a birthday table
from the past here at Cozy Place.
Just so you know the dinnerware is
paper goods...so if you don't have
china you can still set a beautiful
table for any occasion.
So on with my Thankfuls...
#1
Thankful that I finished refreshing our guest bath for Spring/Easter, and it didn't cost me a penny, and love how it came out.
#2
Thankful it has been sunny and warm enough to sit out and get some sun for a few minutes the last few days. My legs are not quite so white now! lol
Thankful for "Sweet Loren's" pre-made cookies you can bake yourself. They were buy one get on free at our Publix recently, and love the have clean ingredients and taste really good. We had her brownie cookies and her oatmeal with cranberry ones, and they were great!
#4
Thankful that our Son, lil darling, and our Daughter and Son-in-love are all meeting in Savannah for the week-end for an early celebration of lil darlings birthday. They always have such a great time together, which makes my Mom heart happy!
Thankful that I am able to turn my
attention to planning our 3 in a row
birthday dinner celebration for next
Saturday, All cards done, most gifts
purchased, menu planned, working on
the tablescape next, already have some
things in mind, so once that's completed
will just need stuff from the grocery
store to make it, pretty much.
#6
Thankful we put 6 new cards in our shop today.
#7
Thankful for a sweet and unexpected text from
lil darling telling me that were having fun in
Savannah, and they were going shopping. That
was what she wanted to do with her Aunt Dina
for her birthday, so she was excited!! lol
#8
Thankful we saw our bunny that comes
to visit, always happy to know he is still
alive and kicking. Have also been seeing
a lot of birds on the ground lately. Wrens,
and Cardinals. Guess they know it is
Spring, so they can come out and play.
#9
Thankful for clean drinking water and
indoor plumbing. We are so blessed.
#10
Thankful for the opportunity to under
stand how it feels for a complete stranger
to compliment you, because I compliment
others I don't know a lot. On Sunday
when I was in my church clothes at the
grocery store I was blessed to get 2 nice
compliments from complete strangers.
and another one from someone we don't
know really well. It sure was a sweet
surprise and made my day better and
made me realize how important that
can be to someone else, especially if
they happened to be having a bad day,
which I was not having....but it really
blessed my heart and made me feel seen.
#11
Thankful that lil darling and I pretty
much finished pulling up ferns on Monday
once she finished her school work. Now
I can move on to the next phase:
Washing flower pots so we can fill them
with flowers.
#12
Thankful for a nice long chat with
my Daughter.

That's it for this week at cozy Place

and
Hope you have a great weekend.

First of March Blessings,

Good Morning Sweet Friends,
How has your week been?? Hope it has been good.
I've have just been working on a bathroom refresh
for Spring. Always nice to have a lil change.
So Changed the shower curtain, the color of the
towels and rugs, and changed the contents of
some small pictures I have hanging in there,
still working on redoing a shelf and of course,
the vanity top. Liking it so far.......
Pictures today are of cute whimsical pictures
compliments of Pixabay!!
On with my Thankfuls.................
#1
Thankful for white chocolate Raspberry cookies
from Tate's Bake shop, that we got at our
Publix grocery store. They were limited edition
cookies, but hope they keep making them.
#2
Thankful for lovely clean sheets on the bed.
Just always feels heavenly.............
such a pleasure always.
Thankful to have finished 2 birthday cards for the family, only 1 more to go, as we are coming up on birthday row here. Hubbies sister Susan, lil darling and my husband all within a week. We usually have 2 dinners, but due to schedules we are doing them all at once this year.
#4
Thankful we got our Winter tree down (Christmas tree
with lights only), and packed away. We really enjoy
leaving it up as it gives the room a warmer look and
just looks so pretty.
#5
Thankful we got the furniture rearranged and
everything (fake snow mostly) vaccummed up.
Looks nice, and is ready for Spring decorating
whenever that takes place. lol
#6
Thankful we were so inspired we cleaned
the whole house, always nice to have a freshly
cleaned house.
#7
Thankful our new microwave arrived today
rather than tomorrow when it was expected
since we are gone a lot on Sunday. I love
that is it just like my old one too.
#8
Thankful for a new bacon cooker that we got
because it encloses the bacon and the grease.
Our old microwabe just got covered in grease
even tho we covered it with a paper towel, we
were constantly having to clean it. All that
grease started making the paint peel inside
the microwave.
Note: in case you are interested the name of
the new bacon cooker is just called "Bacon Cooker"
it is white ceramic with a ceramic separator that
goes inside and a silicon top. Work great and
no grease in our microwave...........Yeah for That!!
#9
Thankful for a good day at church, and after
we did a lil shopping for lil darlings upcoming
birthday which is a few weeks away, then
hubby and I went out to lunch.
#10
Thankful to find the right size American Flag.
We have had a 3X5 one but it drags in our bush,
so finally found a 2X3, so hopefully it will solve
that problem and look so much more respectful.
Got it from a Veteran and family owned business
here in Florida and it is made in American.......
.love all of that!!
Thankful for the pleasant surprise of running
into our old (timewise) Music minister and his
wife while we were in Kohl's shopping for lil
darlings birthday. We used to hang out together
along with 2 other couples, such great memories
of that time in life. That was when we first
came to our church almost 45 yrs. ago, and
they were called to another church, so we lost
contact, but So it was really great to see them.
#12
Thankful for a purchase we made before
Christmas - of a red, green, black and white plaid
throw and 2 pillows. I have admired that plaid
when I saw it in other homes online or in
magazines, but can not tell you how much we
have enjoyed them during the Christmas season,
and all thru the rest of Winter, Think I
will really miss them when I decorate
for Spring............
Well, that's it for Cozy Place today,
Great you could come by.....and
Have a lovely rest of the week,
Love, Hugs, and
End of February Blessings,
Nellie
