Top 10 Holiday Wish List 2009


WISH

( for fun )

1. Cottage getaway in L' Ancienne Boulgangerie, France complete with view & pool ( children optional, but enough wine & you may not even notice them ).






2. Peace, a day of peace and relaxation, ( world peace would be nice too )!



3. Family, this would rate up there with peace ....... a time to get together & re visit a time when siblings  & family members had a heart full of dreams, the sky was the limit! A time when my parents were younger, time seemed to stand still, & the biggest problem was deceiding what cartoon to watch on Saturday mornings. Who wouldn't like to climb into this tent and watch the tele?





4. Polo, I know what fun to learn how to play this game of kings? I would think it would be the ultimate fun & being able to ride as well? Pure heaven .......






5. " I married adventure" book, circe 1940 ........ watching this little beauty via the internet, I predict that I will soon have a copy!






6. Thymes eucalyptus lotion & handsoap set ......Ooohhh the smell is intoxicating. The lotion is the best not only does it moisturize but the scent lingers!!




7. Another Border terrier to add to our ever growing family, one is nice but another would probably turn the house upside down!! Still, love the border, a favorite old English / Scottish breed. Look at those little mugs ........ and oh so loyal!





8. Monogrammed Louis Louis luggage, a new twist on a travel staple or the Goyard luggage? Decisions, descisions ........





9. Voluspa Capri Fig candle
       one word.......SMELL!


10. Finally, and by no means any less important. A zebra, yes I have always wanted a zebra of my very own. Related to the horse, but very different in their own way. They are such extrordinary creatures & have intrigued me since childhood.





If I could add one more thing to the mix, it would be TIME ......there just insn't enough of it!

Such a fun wishlist you have here! I think I want just about everything on it. The escape to France sounds particularly lovely as does the Goyard luggage. And the zebra---who doesn't want a zebra?

Thanks for stopping by, does a glass blown zebra count? I did manage to pick one of those up last week. Although it is not real, you also do not have to groom or feed it!
