Hello, Welcome to Marcia’s Cottage. ♡ I’m so happy to see you today my friend. ♡ Shall we have a little tea. ♡ Happy Wednesday!

Hello, Welcome to Marcia’s Cottage. ♡ I’m so happy to see you today my friend. ♡ Shall we have a little tea. ♡ Happy Monday, Happy September 1st, and Happy Labor Day! Now that was a mouthful. It’s so funny, I belong to a few groups that “go dark” in the summer months, only to begin again in September. It seems like we just went dark, and said “Have a great summer, see you in September!” and lo, and behold we are here again! Oh! I almost forgot to announce the unofficial, official, random Marcia’s Cottage winner for September! silly … Read the full blog post
