Well, if I were to give a glimpse into my likes and life I would start with the color blue - my favorite. I would add a blue chair so you could sit down and join me with a cup of tea. Perhaps we would just talk, or maybe we might do a project together. You could choose from a multitude of craft supplies. Or maybe we could take a walk in the yard, check out the flowers that are blooming, maybe do a little birdwatching, take a few photographs. I could tell you about my family and how they put up with my creative wackiness. I could share some stories about raising cockatiels, or stories from the many years that I was a substitute teacher. It would be a nice visit and it really doesn't have to be all about me........... I'd love to hear about you too!
If you'd like to share a little about yourself why not join in the Teapot Tuesday Challenge this week. Our destination station is a lovely lady who is celebrating her 109th birthday. I'm sure she'd love to hear all about you.

Can I move that basket of flowers and sit in your blue chair? It sounds like a wonderful place to sit and visit, or take a rest after touring the yard. Your card and story are a quintessential representation of the TPT challenge this week. Thanks for the glimpse into your world.
