Yesterday I had the pleasure of taking my mother to visit her sister in law who is 93. We had a nice lunch at a very old restaurant in Shirley, MA it dated back I think to the l800. After the lunch we visited with my Aunt who lives in the Carrige House next to the Big House. Her daughter and family now live in the big house. Sound like DS to you? We were sitting in the sunny back room when my Aunt asked me if I would rather visit in the "drawing room". I had to suppress a giggle.
Her formal room is very Collinwood, beautiful antiques, dark Victorian. I wanted to pack some in my car and take them home.
Birdie--who managed to get many daughter/niece points this weekend.
