come a little closer

I've done a little bit of a blog re-design. Nothing major, just a new banner and some new sidebar links and images featuring a few of my teensies. So... if you're reading this in bloglines, you'll need to come over and see everything!

p.s. We have bees! Yes, a swarm of them is living right under my kitchen window and so far yesterday I counted six in the house. Guess who sounded all panic stricken and "they're swarming" on the phone to bee control yesterday? My husband was laughing at me because I told the woman on the phone that "there are hundreds of bees." In hindsight, perhaps tens would have been a more accurate term.

Aww I think bees are a delight, but I understand your panic all the same. We have wasps and they were everywhere when I was trying to enjoy the patio yesterday. I hope they are taken care of quickly so that you can enjoy your kitchen all the more!

I love the little changes. Very nice and clean!

Have a wonderful day!

the new look is very lovely! i think ten bees counts as a swarm, pretty sure. it does in my book anyway.

love the new look!!

bees put me in a tizzy too... who wants to get stung? :)

Oh well we all say silly things at desperate times!! We've bought 2 bee hives, but we haven't organised the bee's yet..guess there all over at you house!!!

Very nice, Laurie. I need some of your tech savvy in my life.

My daughter really freaks around bees. It would have been more like millions if she had been the one describing.

If it makes you feel any better, I would've described the bees in the same way you did. Perhaps I'd even asked hubby to call and tell the lady I'd meant to call but I passed out when I saw bees in my house ;-)

Love the new look. Did you see your flickr link is not working?

Thanks for your email, I'll answer asap

hi laurie, love your new design .. and bees, yikes, I'd be in panic too :P

I like the new look! Very nice and chic! Great banner! ^_^
