when will spring come ?

I can't wait for Spring. After the Christmas season ends , I figure winter should be over. One of my first Spring projects will be a new front porch plant. My tree had a little problem surviving the winter.

Sherlock Holmes

Today was movie theater day. We went with the family to see Sherlock Holmes. I loved it for many reasons. It was a great adventure movie. Sherlock and Watson were very lovely. However, that is not what had me drooling. I want tweed. I am wondering now if they make tweed pillows and I am fairly positive that my wardrobe is lacking a tweed pencil skirt. Also, I loved and I mean loved the set design. Gorgeous cobblestone streets, amazing lanterns, gorgeous architecture etc etc. My favorite was a lantern that had the street numbers of the house on the front of the glass. I want it. Restoration Hardware has some similar lanterns and I am thinking a little vinyl lettering would have a similar effect. It really was so classic. I loved the cobblestone and can't wait to make a cobblestone path driveway. I would love to remember to do these things when we have a proper house. I want to see this movie again!
