A ROSE BY ANY OTHER NAME for Pink Friday


A Rose by any other name.....that is the shopping theme this Friday, June 26th at the boutiques of Make Mine Pink (http://www.makeminepink.com/). Two things come to my mind for the month of June, fresh strawberries and roses popping out all over. There is nothing so beautiful as a rose. So romantic. So feminine. So, got to have them all over!

WHB Historical Society Honors My Sister's Artwork

This is just one of the many pictures Liz painted that is on display at the Historic Society. This is called "Winter's Wharf'.

Here is our famous artist Liz with 3 of her nephews, Rob, David and Matt, outside the Westhampton Beach Historic Society where her years of painting the town's history is being displayed through Labor Day.

My sister Liz, who sends our proud meter way over the top!
Here we are, the three sisters, myself, Nancy (Mom to the three nephews) and Liz at the benefit and auction which was held at the wonderful restaurant of Starr Boggs in Westhampton Beach. Even the sun came out for this occassion!

This is one of the paintings, called "Raynor's Garage" which was being auctioned that evening. The gardens in the courtyard were magnificent. We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful evening. The event was well attended; the food was sublime; hugs and kisses were going on all over the place seeing friends, classmates of long ago, family and town folk near and dear to us.

Sassy Ladies of Summer Lane


"Rhonda" still thinks of Las Vegas when she dresses for the nightclubs in the Hamptons. Oh that gal loves her bling! Too much is never enough for her. What a gem!

"Colleen" is the picture of a Summer's day; fresh as a daisy and just as perky too. Colleen loves to picnic in the village green amongst the hydrangea gardens.

Make Mine Pink Mini Retreat on Cape Cod








These pictures were taken in the enchanted garden outside HorseFeathers Antique Shop. Ask anyone who went there....it was stepping into a dream.




These two pictures are of a sweet little cottage right next door to our beach homestead.







Here is our wonderful "Main house" which overlooks the beautiful water and leads us down to the beach. Look at those views!
I will be posting more pictures once MB is back from traveling and posts some of hers. I don't want to interfere with guessing who the covered up "creature" is on the beach game! I wonder who it is......

Here are pictures of the adorable cottage bedroom suite! I slept like a log every night!

Fluffy towels, spa socks and cameo rose soaps awaited us upon arrival. Oooh lala!
Stay tuned for more pics from all of us. We had a grand time. When you are with Pinkies, life is blissful.

Heaven On Earth

All the way home from retreat on Cape Cod I saw the signs I wait all winter for: Strawberries! Today I ventured out east on Long Island to the farm stands to get my piece of heaven on earth, fresh strawberries and blueberries. Oh my goodness! I had to give them the honor they deserve in pretty Fenton milkglass bowls and set them upon lace for a glamour shot. Aren't they just the prettiest little beauties? Happy berry season everyone!
