I can't believe tomorrow is Ash Wednesday, the beginning of Lent and somehow the beginning of the end of winter. Ash Wednesday brings so many good memories from my childhood, the food, the meaning of the season, My Familia. It is very hard to be far, far away from my love ones, but I try to find ways to cope with the loneliness, I am very grateful that I found the world of the blogs, it has been a blessing.
Here is my red contribution....
My office, it small but I adore it. It's the hallway leading to the upstairs bedrooms. It was plain white, I found the red wall paper in a second hand store, it's very 80's but it was perfect for this space. I found the little frame with the tulips in my neighborhood Salvation Army, there are some spots in the petals where the paint fell, but I like that way, it has character.
This is a family size bucket for pop corn, it comes with 3 small ones, I found it one day in my favorite thrifstore, when I was ready to pay for my finds I saw it on the counter, asked if it belonged to somebody else and of course the answer was no, so I took it.
My coffee mug, from My Boricua, who's is combat disable veteran and works for the VA Hospital, please pray for our Military and Veteran Men and Women.
My so favorite coat. I was dreaming of a Red Coat for the longest time, but they were expensive, one day at Sears all coats were 50% off, so I thought it was a good deal, to my surprise the register rang it for less than 50%, yeeeyy!! this Mami of 3 was very, very happy.
Happy Rednesday Everyone!!!

I love your office! A cozy little corner out of the way . . . believe it or not, I'm jealous! The wallpaper is beautiful, it looks so nice there, along with the chippy tulip stained glass - you must be so happy there!
Thanks Girls! I am very happy in that little corner, that stained glass brings a big smile on my face when the sun shines thru it.
Happy Rednesday!!
Lovely reds! Especially the framed tulips! Greetings from the Netherlands (land of tulips!)!
Hi Elly!!! You know, I have alway dream of traveling to The Netherlands, it all started with a brand of ice cream with the picture of a little girl dressed on the traditional Netherlands outfit and a red tulip. So, when I found the little window I was very happy.

You're so lucky to have a little office area! I do my blogging from the dining room table! Love the wallpaper, and the tulips in the window. Your office is so cute and cozy!
Happy REDnesday!

Thank You Carol!! I used to have my office in the dining table too, but I had to move my "office" at every meal. I decided I need a "little corner for myself", and voila!! I made the hallway MINE!! ;-)
What a beautiful office!
