My Favorite Things (Part 1)

A few weeks ago, my two oldest children were in their school musical production of “The Sound of Music”.





After countless hours of practicing, the students put on three amazing shows.  “The Sound of Music” has always been a family favorite, so they were thrilled to be playing the parts of Rolf and Marta.

 

 

For months, the musical numbers have been heard in our home.  There has been more than one occasion where I wake up with “Do-Re-Mi” running through my head or catch myself humming “My Favorite Things”!   So with that song in mind, here are a few of MY favorite things...when it comes to homes & gardens.

 

White houses with black shutters

 

Classic, timeless, New England

Boxwoods

I love their dark glossy leaves.  They bring structure to your garden, look great in pots, and work well as a hedge.  My garden is full of them!  Did you notice the boxwoods in the photos of the houses above?  Two of my "favorites" combined!

 

 

 

 

 

 It's a beautiful day here in New England...enjoy your garden!
