Seeing Red

 February Greetings Farmgirls! Valentine's Day is just around the corner and I'm feeling a tad bit guilty that I haven't come up with just the right gift for my sweet yankee for * love day * yet. Instead, my heart is all a flutter over my newfound love interest *PINTEREST* and my passion for the color RED!  I promise by the end of this post you'll be " FIRED UP " for the color RED too!

WARNING...  Readers BEWARE! You might end up a " pinner " too!

Playing House

 

Dorothy in ~ The Wizard of Oz

 I just love it when old ways come home to roost don't you? What do I mean when I say “old ways"? Well, I mean the SIMPLE things of course. Things like a hot and hearty bowl of homemade stew on a cold winter’s day, clearing away last year’s clutter and rearranging furniture for a fresh perspective! The kinds of things that don't cost more than a day's worth of groceries and a little elbow grease. You might say I’ve been indulging in one of my favorite pastimes. PLAYING HOUSE!

Scattering Dream Seeds

 You, you may say I'm just a dreamer, but I'm not the only one ~ John Lennon.

I don't think John was alone in being a dreamer, do you? There are lots of us out there and I'm in the business of encourging you to DREAM BIG with a 
BEGINNERS HEART!
    Anytime of year is a good time to sow some dream seeds, but I like winter the best.

Debbie Bosworth, on the beach

Debbie Bosworth,
is a certified farmgirl at heart. She’s happily married to her beach bum Yankee husband of 20 years. She went from career gal to being a creative homeschooling mom for two of her biggest blessings and hasn’t looked back since. Debbie left her lifelong home in the high desert of Northern Nevada 10 years ago and washed up on the shore of America’s hometown, Plymouth, MA, where she and her family are now firmly planted. They spend part of each summer in a tiny, offgrid beach cottage named “The Sea Horse.”

“I found a piece of my farmgirl heart when I discovered MaryJanesFarm. Suddenly, everything I loved just made more sense! I enjoy unwinding at the beach, writing, gardening, and turning yard-sale furniture into ‘Painted Ladies’ I’m passionate about living a creative life and encouraging others to ‘Make Each Day their Masterpiece.’”

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”
– Mark Twain.
