Take Time to...

Hi Friends as we flip the calendar to December here is a list of some fun activities to enjoy over the next 29 days.

Buy a ticket for a Holiday House Tour - Winding through Warwick is one my late Mother In Law Marge was involved with for years. I have attended it and events hosted by local women’s clubs in my area. If there isn’t one in your area or within a not too far driving distance - why not organize a round robin with neighbors - decide which house will be the last stop and gather there for take away or go onto a local restaurant for lunch or dinner.

Drop by a local Holiday Bazaar - Morris County Farms

Visit a downtown to admire the Windows.

Participate in a Holiday Cookie Exchange.

Enjoy a drive and marvel at the Lights.

Gather family to tackle tasks together: Cards, Gift Wrapping and Baking.

Buy tickets for a theater or school - dress up and enjoy the Show.

Go Skating.

Some additional options are visiting a museum, grab tickets to a musical venue or sports team.

Wishing you the time to enjoy some holiday fun! Spending time together is the most important gift there is - OUR TIME! Til next time friends be well and I will see you over on Instagram!

A Day Spent in Summit, NJ 10 - 9 - 25

Hi friends my second excursion with my bestie Kristin found us in Summit, NJ, We shopped, enjoyed a wonderful lunch and shopped again all before 2:30pm!

Kristin, Mary, myself

Our first stop was MK Linens and Home. Owner Mary Kull is a delight and her shop is filled with the most beautiful items. Kristin ordered linen sheets and I picked up a new pair of branch candles in navy blue.


Next we visited Great House. Bonny Neiman has an amazing selection of interesting decor including vintage pieces and beautiful furniture. I picked up a cute match book to add to my ever growing collection.


We savored a delicious lunch at Summit House.


Our final stop was The Summit Antiques Center. There are so many dealers you are sure to find a treasure or two! I never leave empty-handed and I came home with a vintage pitcher and a print of a Venice canal.

I spent $77.00 on my candles, green pitcher, matchbook and Venice print.

If you’re in the area of Summit, NJ or even if you’re not I highly recommend a visit to this lovely town. The shopping and fine dining make it a destination. Til next time be well and I’ll see you over on Instagram.
