Mardi Gras 2024 {I Bought My Own Flowers}

 I love fresh flowers, and the shades of the Mardi Gras season. Again this year, I headed to my local florist, Mitch's Flowers on Magazine Street for Carnival-spirited designs. Monique and her team hit it out of the park once again. Blooms in shades of purple, green, and gold are ready to greet our many guests this Carnival season.

Yep! This Saturday, J and I are having a MOVING SALE at our home from 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM. The sale includes some furniture, lots of accessories, glassware, serveware, frames, photo albums, and lots and lots of seasonal decor. If you are Uptown Saturday, make a pass. Sorry! There will be no shipping. 

Check out SOME of the goods! You might be a hoarder if....

I cannot tell you how good it feels to purge the "old". Yes! It feels so good.

Move-in date to the Acorn Cottage has been set and will happen on Saturday, September 1.

Moving Sale, y'all!

A New Year. A New Look.

No, silly. Not me but the blog!

For a while I wanted a fresher, cleaner, more grown-up look to the blog. Linda of Life and Linda was my go-to for this special update. Linda did my last update about a couple years ago. She is a pleasure to work with.

I asked for a fresher and cleaner look with a white background, and Linda delivered.

I hope you continue to enjoy the "new" Uptown Acorn.

I highly recommend Linda if you are up for an update to your blog.

Blog REfresh, y'all!
