Happy New Years....no stitching today, but I did
accomplish a couple things this morning...I poured
myself my fav brew this morning Green Mountain coffee
Nantucket.. Cuddled in on my window seat
this very cold morning and PINNED a few pink things Ü
( My favourite new cup goes well with my gifted cotton pink
blanket from my girls)
We have a bit of snow, not much, certainly not what we are used too
and I miss it terribly....
Oh Sumatra my Ragdoll feline, loves to join
me, where ever I am, she is underfoot
or in this case this morning, sharing my bench with me...
She loves the smell of coffee, hence her name
Sumatra...I always wanted a cat that matched my kitchen
and looked like coffee....lol
Love red and white as much as I love PINK...
These gorgeous flowers came way by a dear
friend on Christmas Eve... She knows me sew well....
Lighting was good this morning, sew I took
a couple more shots...
Sew fresh and clean ....ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

| Hyacinth. on my window sill... |
Tradition around here on New Years Eve is to always
get a few bulbs of Hyacinth and planted them in my new
CUPS...giant ones at that...I added my cups to compare....
These were from my children, who obviously know I am
over the top obsessed with anything coffee related...
Both these cups and saucers were found in their travels...
I will keep taking photos of them in their progression..
We are not sure of their colors yet, sew that will be a surprise....\
Sew my dears, I have a kitchen that is beckoning me to get
some french onion soup on, another New Years Tradition for us..
The day will be spent cuddling with my honey
and watching some old movies...
( no photos of them lol)
My best as always..
YOU are KIND, Smart and Important to me..
To a colorful NEW YEAR...

Nice start for the new year! I really like that first giant mug. It will be fun watching your garden grow.
Happy New Year to you and yours :) Much love and happiness x (and thank you for the graphic too!)
Your window seat looks divine! I'm not sure you'd ever get me off of it. :)
I just love your window seat. What a great way to start the morning each day. Sounds like you had a nice relaxing holiday.
Stay Warm and Happy New Years!

Enjoy your special day! It's a perfect day for cuddling...umm, I think you'll have to start a red and white cuddle quilt,though,it would be perfect for your kitchen! Maybe you can start it tomorrow! Chuckle!
Samm as usual you have treated us to some amazing photography. I love the view of the snow, especially with the cups of hyacinths...a promise of spring. It's a beautiful day here, sunny and cool, and I'm spending it doing small tasks that keep me fairly still (have a cold so I'm babying me). I've cooked a traditional New Year's lunch which we will have in a few minutes. I hope your new year is filled with joy! blessings, marlene
Sounds like a very glorious day ... and very similar to my own. Trade out the French Onion for Split Pea and I think we're having the same lovely first day of the year. I hope 2012 is full of wonderful things for you! (Oh yes, and your cat is beautiful!) :)
Ever since I was a little girl I have always wanted a window seat. What a marvelous way to start the day. and Sumatra! I have missed seeing her!! Such a sweetie pie, I am sure Tea-Cup was also close by. Love the large coffee cups! They are such fun, great idea to use as planters. We also get Hyacinths. I look forward to seeing your bloom. And by the way, love the blankie from your children! Happy New Year!
Happy New Year!
There has been a lot of coffee, and a little bit of sewing going on here. Just enjoying a lazy Sunday, before it's back to business tomorrow. Me and Hubby back to work, and the kids back to school.
Hope you'll have a great and creative new year, with lots of special moments.
BTW.. That pink mug is just sooo darn cute! Wish they had something similar in shops over here!
Hugs
I love how you take time to enjoy a cup of coffee and a cuddle under a soft blankie. Enjoy this day and blessings to you and your family for 2012 and always. Leslie in sunny but cool Northern California
Have always wanted a window seat...thanks for sharing yours with us today. The strawberry cup is so pretty too. Have a wonderful day, and thanks for all you do.
Happy New Year my friend! I crashed into the new year...my computer crashed! So I am learning on a new one today! It's fun so far! Wishing you the very best! ♥♥♥
Happy New Year to you and your family. Looking forward to another great year of posts!
Happy New Year, Samm. You are such a sweetie, and I wish only wonderful things for you in 2012.
What a fab idea to plant a bulb in a big mug to wait for spring. I must remember that for next year! (First I have to find me a big mug! LOL)
Wishing you a very Happy and Blessed New Year Samm.
Hi Miss Samm
I have seveal of those boxes and I am willing to share. Send me your address

Fresh coffee...the absolute perfect way to start ny morning. Sitting on that window seat with your snuggly kitty sounds like a great idea. I hope you enjoyed the movies.
Wishing you all the best for 2012. Love your window seat and the giant cups with hyacinth. I too had my coffe and kitty today. Alas, no window seat, but a comfy chair and glowing fireplace.
Never fear Samm, there is more snow to come!
Beautiful way to begin your day in this new year we now have. Blissful hugs...
The kitchen is the heart of the home, and truly yours looks like it. I love the newly planted hyacinths. I didn't know you loved pink. And that cat...wow!
Happy New Year to you - you inspire me with your wonderful photos! We had our traditional collards, black-eyed peas and cornbread yesterday; now I am ready for the green, the coins, and the gold to start coming in. LOL Hoping for a wonderful 2012 for all!
OMG...your window seat looks sEw inviting...picture perfect...luv your new pink mug, good choice by your girls. I have 2 of the big cups with the saucers....I usually use them for my cereal in the morning....I'm going to plant a few bulbs too....your photos are always wONderfuL!!! Thanks for your inspiration Samm...(o:hugs Pauline
Happy New Year Madame Samm!
I noticed the additions of pink that you pinned. Lovely!
What really struck me this morning is your cat. We have a ragdoll mitted as well - name of Mocha - as she managed to slurp my coffee the day we brought her home. She is our little sweetie.
All the Best to you!
Happy New Year!
I'm catching up on all my blog reading. Happy New Year to you and I'm looking forward to seeing your flowers blossom.
Smiles,
Kelly
Wishing you and yours a wonderful 2012 Samm. Can't wait to see what you will do in 2012. Love and Blessings, XOXOX Christel
