{ the comment curator }

Today I'm starting a new feature, The Comment Curator, in which I plan to start and share a collection of fabulous finds and ideas I've discovered via comments left here on little ole S.HOPtalk. Today's fabulous little discovery was spotted on Blondie 'N' SC after Tara left a comment on this post.

 

I followed her link and discovered  these cheerful party centerpieces Tara created with daffodils and peach jars from Traders Joe's.

She had me at the burlap and green ribbon, but when I saw the limes at the bottom of the jars, I couldn't resist sharing the idea with you all. I can't wait to try this for a little soiree we're hosting in a couple of weeks. Thank you Tara for your lovely comment and your inspiring ideas.

Who will be featured next  in the Comment Curator? Who knows...leave a comment and it might be you!

{ fleeting moments... }

I am participating in Kasey's weekly photo challenge in which we are being challenged to capture ourselves or those moments that define us. It's been such a busy week that I was concerned I wouldn't have much material for this week's challenge. As I went through my photos from the last week, however, I was pleased to discover I had captured some of the fleeting moments that defined me and family life over the past week. 

I'm so grateful for these reminders...reminders that life is good.

{ for you... }

Just a little something from me to thank you all for your continued visits and comments. I''m wrapping up a couple of big projects and should then be back to regular posts and stopping by all of your lovely little corners of the world. Hope you all had a wonderful weekend. I look forward to catching up with you soon. ~Suzanne

P.S. I snuck out to the Farmer's Market yesterday and the flowers were heavenly. Must make a habit of stopping by there more often!
