For all of you that are dreaming of spring, I am doing an early Spring feeling giveaway. It consists of 8 handmade cloth spring print napkins and 4 very pretty gold rimmed flower mugs.
Each mug has the name of the flower printed on the bottom. Click for a better look. Sign on to follow if you have not done that yet and leave a comment on what you would drink from these mugs. I will pick the winner's name from the great pumpkin on Sunday morning, February 21st.
Good Luck!!!
We stay in an area of Skaneateles that is farm country. It is just outside of the town.
This is the farmhouse we rent.
This farm is across the street. Teddy loves to go out and look for "bad kitties" that live at this farm.
The lake is frozen and lots of people are ice fishing on it. I sure could have used my telephoto lens but I left it at home.
People pull shovels out on sleds and clean off areas of the lake so they can skate and play hockey.
Teddy was disappointed that she could not go swimming or get a drink.
We had Valentine's dinner at the Sherwood Inn.
The food here is wonderful!
The Inn was built around 1800.
After dinner you could take a horse drawn carriage ride around the town.
This is Lincoln and he is a Belgium.
We always bring Teddy some fish from the Inn for her dinner. There is actually a big black plate somewhere under there.
On the way home Teddy sleeps. I was shooting over my shoulder so this is crooked.
She wakes up occasionally, especially if we stop at a rest stop. She likes McDonalds.
We pasted some signs that show how the Seneca Nation works. Click to enlarge.
This area is hugely into wine making.
Break treaties/ break the law.
Tomorrow I will post more pics of what we saw on the trip.
The Blog Tech appreciates all of your nice compliments!

What a beautiful dog.
Happy belated Valentine's day!
Although the pics of the area were great, my favorite picture was Teddy sleeping in the car. Precious!
The mugs are lovely. Think that I would drink my new favorite coffee,Dunkin Donut brand. Or maybe a nice cup of cinnamon tea! Have a good day!
Teddy must dine when out of town and the plate of food is a biggggg secret...Traveling Teddy is ready to go home.
Be safe and blessings....

Today is like spring here. It's up into the 50ies for heaven's sake!
I'd also like to mention how charming your farmhouse is! And that inn you had dinner in looks so beautiful! And the carriage rides! Wow, I'm overwhelmed! It clearly looks like you had a wonderful time :) And I'm falling more in love with Teddy each post♥
Great photos as always...
As for the cups, I would drink my morning coffee from them -- and at night a hot chocolate. :)

You always have the neatest stuff.
I'd celebrate Spring with hot chocolate brewed with Pandora spice (a 17th century aphrodisiac blend).
Hmm...I would drink chai and Earl Grey tea. :)
That Inn is beautiful. So tranquil. Hope you had a nice weekend!

I think I would drink homemade hot chocolate with hazelnut syrup out of the cups.
Looks like there's as much snow there as here.
My sister is having surgery and I would love to win to win you gift for her. It would be such a bright and encouraging way for her to dring her hot lemon and honey as she gains her strength.
Thanks for sharing the Tribal views in New York. Here in Michigan, there are numerous tribal casinos, with the most successful one being up in the U.P. But the whole relationship with the state government is different. Once again, there are no easy answers.
As for your VERY cheerful giveway, those placemats and mugs joyously sing of Spring! They look perfect for very fragrant herbal teas. .oooh, or maybe some Jasmine tea!

I'm thinking a nice earl grey , or something flowery like a jasmine tea maybe :-)
no coffee though !
Blessings and good luck to every one !

lovely mugs - I'd drink some hot cocoa with mini marshmallows
I can imagine myself drinking a nice cup of tea with just a splash of amaretto out of those mugs. Lovely.
and Buddy LOVES the plain double cheeseburger at McDoanlds :-)
