JUST CRAZY 'BOUT

I am pretending that FarmgirlCyn tagged me. Maybe the short time I was blessed with being apart of her family influenced my taste but I share her love for French country living especially chickens. Here is a peek inside my kitchen at some of my roosters:)My favorite spot in the morning (another thing I have in common with Cyn). On the left, my Gevalia drip coffee pot, a tin with three compartments: coffee, tea, and sugar, a tin sign featuring a rooster painted on a French postcard purchased at a garage sale for .25 (original price tag still on it that said 9.99), candlestick, and my beloved Senseo!!!! The best Christmas present I ever got depending on your point of view. It gives me freshly brewed, hot, frothy coffee in less than 30 seconds. The bad part is how much coffee I drink.

This is the top of my kitchen cabinets.

These are two pictures that I found at a garage sale in Harrison, MI for .25 each. I should climb up and look at them because they have the scientific names for the type of roosters written on the bottom. I should, but I'm really comfortable. I'll do it later.

This is my very first rooster. I bought it for me and Josh's first home. I may have bought it in El Paso when I was stationed there in the Army. I'm not sure. Behind him is the coffee bean topiary that I constructed a couple of years ago. It's finally lost it's scent. I used to sniff it:)

This is over my stove. I couldn't resist the rooster salt and pepper shaker at Walmart for 2.88.
I bought some hand-painted ceramic burner covers at an arts and craft show several years ago but being blond and I guess a tad dyslexic, I inevitable turned on the wrong burner and they exploded. All four of them eventually:( I finally gave up gluing them back together and threw them out.

Anna! These are so darn cute. I especially love the S&P shakers. Who knew you were a closet rooster lover???
