your photograph reminds me of one january, years ago, when i deliberately sprayed out our apple tree with the water hose, to make icing on it.

it looked great, glistening and magical.

my daughter apparently thought that it could use a little more water, and did something about it a few days later after school.

I heard the pipes, and came outside. And there she was hose in hand, all excited. (she was about 9 at the time). Yep, she’d hosed the tree down, “real goooood, mom!”.

No sooner had she finished telling me, there was a great CRACK. And one of the larger branches came falling…breaking off several smaller branches on the way down.

OMG. The look on her face! And my poor tree! All I could do was laugh.

Merry Christmas.

MERRY CHRISTMAS! Design rules, but thank goodness for much needed time to relax the creative side of the brain!

Hi Grace!
I was reading in bed the other night — my favorite quiet time — when I spied your photo in House & Garden magazine! “Hey, that’s Grace!” Congratulations to one of my favorite design detectives!
