Hello, Welcome to Marcia’s Cottage. ♡ I’m so happy to see you today my friend. ♡ Shall we have a little tea. ♡ Well. ..how’s about lemonade instead… Yesterday, I had several errands to run. One, of them was to mail the Marcia’s Cottage random giveaway. (grin) and, the other was to drop off something at a friends house… who lives around the corner sort of. On my way something SO caught my attention…that I circled the area twice before I decided to pull over and stop. Oh, … Read the full blog post

Hello, Welcome to Marcia’s Cottage. ♡ I’m so happy to see you today my friend. ♡ Shall we have a little tea. ♡ Happy August 1st! Any plans for the weekend? Well. …I must admit, I’m feeling rather British….*wink I loved Mrs. Cunningham. She was my 4th grade teacher. One of my favorite grades in school. And, she was definitely my favorite teacher. On Friday afternoons she’d let us listen to the Beatles music. I wonder if she knew then, that by doing so….she was teaching her class how to live a better life. Well, kind of sort of.

(not sinking, but always growing, and changing) …..♡ Yesterday, my husband “surprised” me with … Read the full blog post

Hello, Welcome to Marcia’s Cottage. ♡ I’m so happy to see you today my friend. ♡ Shall we have a little tea. ♡ I’m excited about a workshop I am attending today. It is sort of a training. (grin) Guess what it will be about? Angels…. Do you know anything about angels? Or perhaps, I should ask you dear reader do you ever ponder about them… I’m hoping to learn a little more by attending this workshop. And, yet….I “think” I believe in them. But, how can I believe in them, if I don’t know much/anything about them? Personally, I’ve … Read the full blog post
