I couldn’t decide what shrubs to plant along the wall of our side porch so I planted zinnia seeds to temporarily fill in for this summer... but they are so pretty I’m thinking I might replant them every spring! It’s so fun to watch them grow y’all and burst with blooms of so many different colors... reminds me of when my oldest child was little (she’s 22 now) she always said her favorite color was “all the colors of the rainbow...” Happy Sunday, Friends! Soak up the COLORS of this season while they’re here! (at The Cattle Gap) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBbjPe_BZGL/?igshid=tqvb270y46bu

I couldn’t decide on what shrubs to plant along the wall of our front side porch so I planted zinnia seeds temporarily... but y’all!!! Look how pretty! I’m thinking of just replanting them here along the porch every spring! What a pretty surprise every day to see new blooms of so many different colors! Reminds me of when my oldest child was little (she’s 22 now...) and I’d ask her what her favorite color was... she always said “I love all the colors of the rainbow!” Happy Sunday, Friends!

Had so much fun curating this gift basket today! Thankful that folks trust me with gifts to deliver to people they wanna thank for their service to others! My zinnias just started blooming so I think a little vase of them tucked inside makes the whole thing pop with happiness!

I was supposed to be Dancing With The Athens Stars RIGHT NOW ...raising money for @projectsafeinc But #Coronavirus has me all cooped up and I have forgotten all the moves since I haven’t been able to practice with @tabitha_rose21 . I’m gonna see if we can practice via #Zoom soon! Until then.... please don’t forget this charity NEEDS you and your dollars.

Lyrics from one of my favorite tunes by Billy Joel —- perfect for this post. 🎶 Some people stay far away from the door if there’s a chance of it opening up.... They hear a voice in the hall outside and hope that it just passes by.... 🎶 But not our oldest child.... She grew up during the recession of 2008 and is not afraid of WORKIN’ IT. If you’re into second-hand goodies and the charm of a 21 year old Athens, Georgia girl.... give her a follow on Instagram, please! She’s making Lemon Drop Martinis Out of the lemons of COVID-19! ——> Her handle on instagram is @grannyshouseofgrits ❣️Help A Phickle Chickle Out! #vintage #secondhand #sustainable #childofrecession #creative #workingirl #female #entrepreneur #startup #smallbusiness! https://www.instagram.com/p/B-a1TBOhsNM/?igshid=1bi8mhks6a9pu
