Cow Appreciation Day

Seems like the perfect time to show a few
cows I have mooing around here.
Here's where they are kept. You can see
them peeking out.
I just had to have a cow creamer.
Then I found this s&p set.
 Then I found this cow pitcher in a thrift shop.
Milk for cereal or a vase for flowers.
 I also gave my mother a cow creamer.
It's now been added to my collection.
 I can put one at each of our place settings.
Everybody gets their own cow.
Check out the napkin rings.
I found these in a thrift shop too.
I made my own foamy soap reusing
this cow labeled wine bottle.
I bought this wine, because of it's unique 
bottle on our trip to North Carolina 
visiting vineyards.
 Real cows have the right of way on the road
that leads to our place in
 North Carolina's Smoky Mountains.
 I love seeing them by the side of the road.
Cow painting I saw in my friend's NC consignment shop
If you see a cow on Cow Appreciation Day
it will bring you good luck.
(OK, I just made that up)
But now you have so..........
Cheers!

  3. That's so funny I saw three cow items this past weekend! They must be in fashion :) I love hearing the cows from our porch when it's dinner time. They sure let you know when they are hungry. Jennifer

  9. How charming! What is it about little cow pitchers that's so appealing? The only cow accessories we have is our cow kitty, Spenser, and if I may say so, he's pretty darn cute.
