My Stoop!

Greetings -- I wanted to show these little birds that I have on my "stoop" at my side door. As many of you know, I'm from NY and I lived in an apt. my whole life before moving to CT. We did always come up on weekends though. But when we lived in Brooklyn, we'd sit on our stoop outside. My son, when he was younger, loved sitting on the "stoop." And we miss it!

But I still have a stoop at my side door! And yes, over the years that we've been here, we've sat on our little stoop. It's only one step but, it IS still a STOOP!! Ha-ha!

Hey, you can take the girl out of Brooklyn, but you can't take the Brooklyn out of the girl. :)

Anyway, I wanted to show these little birds on our stoop, that I bought months ago that I blogged about at the time. The funny thing is that when I purchased them and showed a photo from online when I ordered them, they looked so tiny (click here after finishing this post to see), and yet they are quite big, as you can see below! I wanted to paint them but, because I am LAZY, I never did. :)

I hope everyone has a great weekend!

Best, Gloria

p.s. I just bought the yellow flowers the other day. Aren't those Autumn MUMS?? Am I wrong in thinking that this is a little early to have these flowers out for sale, since it's still Summer??!
