Cream Color....

Cream colored ponies and crisp apple strudels. Door bells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles. Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings. These are a few of my favorite things.....* You may not be able to have a cream colored pony, but how about a cream colored comfy chair to sit in and read? On a diet? How about apple strudel scented candles available on Etsy? Goose-down shoes from Scandia (on sale for $25.00). These items are my take on the song.  Anyone else adore goose-down items?

    I must have that chair ...and the schnitzel.

    To me anything with goose down in it sounds completely luxurious. Almost makes me wish it was cooler here so I could snuggle up and get warm!

    Gorgeous pictures, Janean! Esp. love that pic of the geese in front of the moon! And the schnitzel looks delicious, however I'm starving, so most anything would look good!

    I have a pair of the down filled booties that hubby got me at Restoration Hardware a # of years ago, but I rarely wear them because I like wearing something I can go outside in when I have to put the dogs out. They are very warm and cozy, though!

    And our color is not cream today, but WHITE! WE now have about 6 inches of snow, and the sleet has begun, soon to be followed by freezing rain. Atlanta and all of northern Georgia are pretty much all shut down . . . Ahhhh, the joys of winter in the south!!!

    :o) Be Joyful! Becky

    Your Friend,

    I can't recall ever owning any goose-down items, but it sounds soft and inviting. :)

    That schnitzel!....wouldn't that be nice for supper on a cold January day...with home made spatzle?
    I'm not a lover of a cream-coloured decor, but the chair would be welcome.

    Lovely! Enjoying more of your favorite things! I'm really digging that wallpaper in the first photo. Cracker Barrel has their apple dumpling back. If you've never had one, you're missing out. I ordered one to go b/c it is huge, lasting me 3 days. Your apple strudel reminded me of it. Yum!

    I know that song by heart. Well, O.K., I know all of The Sound Of Music songs by heart. Love your geese picture. It makes me want to soar with them. And anything cream has my vote.

    These pictures are gorgeous and the food is making me crazy. Oh yes, I'd love to snuggle up in some goose down. I'm in California, but we're having a real cold spell now. Everything looks so cozy.

    Yes, forget the ponies, but the slippers and the comfy chair are calling my name. Also copied the Strudel recipie. My hubby would love that for breakfast. I had to google Snitzel...hmmm...sounds and looks yummy. Learned something new. Love bein challenged.
    Just watched "Sound of Music" again during the holidays. Such a sweet movie with all the kids, but I had forgotten about the Hitler part.

    I loved the photo of the geese and the moon. Beautiful.
    Years ago for a wedding gift my MIL gave us a set of goosedown pillows.
    I hated to see them wear out.
    Love the cream color, but today our color is pure white.
    Have a great day.
