Dividend of Happiness

"Your dividend of happiness may derive from the simple things unnoticed by most people."

Alexandra Stoddard

*The simple, faded salt and pepper shakers were calling my name from the thrift store. The $2.00 was well-spent for the joy they bring. Vintage fade melds with teapot new to create a vignette of blue serenity.

  3. You are in a vignette-y state of mind, LaTeaDah. The two new ones (to me) are wonderful.
