Now here is a little thought for the day.
A little Irish Blessing for you.
“May you always be blessed with walls for the wind. A roof for the rain. A warm cup of tea by the fire. Laughter to cheer you. Those you love near you. And all that your heart might desire." An old Irish Proverb
Remember the Mammas and the Pappas???

Bear isn't much into dresses. Especially ones that are shabby. Besides, I don't think one could obtain that apparel in Canada. Just as well. Shabby isn't chic.
I always liked the Mamas and the Papas music. Have a wonderful day!
Blessings to you this beautiful Monday!
Oh shucks, you put the Mamas and Pappas on. I played it for Sherry and just after there was 'Dream a little dream of Me' by Mama Cass. Sherry loved that smooth voice. I wish I could hear it good.
She remembers most every thing. She said you were away, far away in the Mediterranean when she sang that.
Yep her memory is good.
Good read thanks....
Love this giveaway! I 'like' Shabby Apple on FB!!
Yes I have a USA address too! he he
hugs, Linda
So many cute dresses! I could see Sara in that adorable dress called Conservatory Garden! I would get that for her or for me the Eiffel Tower necklace...ohh lala!! hugs, Linda

I like them on FB.
I'm a long time follower ;-)
I like the clothes...lovely! :) Nice Irish blessing! Happy Monday My friend! Hugs x
I like Da Vinci. And El Dorado. And Racquet Club. I need to stop looking ;-)
I love the Ipanema dress! :)
WELL HELLO THERE!
First of all, I am coming after seeing that you visited me. You are a friend of Renae? She is super. I just adore her, her wit, her writing potential, OH.....EVERYTHING about her.
I LOVE SHABBY APPLE and this singing group from my childhood!
You comment on my post was wonderful. YES, I am trying to put out a message. And ask Renae who is getting to know me; I love poetry. I would rather create a softer way to say something and provide my readers a change to see something from a different perspective.
I am a French teacher. I resigned last year and this year I am looking to substitute at least three days a week to pursue ART and writing. And I have always known it is hard, but not until you are IN IT and experience the difficulties do you really know. I am not a quitter, but for family reasons, I am wondering if I should just readjust my focus and forget about pursuing the dream to write and do artistry, return back to full-time teaching and just do the other stuff as a hobby, whenever. But something is calling me to do this...but it is a painful process and I have to weigh out the risks.
I am glad you enjoyed the photos and my attempt to wax poetical! DO COME BACK NEXT WEEK!!! Many thanks, Anita
I loved the Mamas and Papas! Monday, Monday - California Dreamin', etc. They had a great sound. sigh.
Have a lovely day, Sandie!
I loved all their songs! Dream a Little Dream of Me. Have a great day!
I liked them on Facebook.
I found two bracelets that I like:
Francy's Bracelet
Bianca Bracelet
I am a follower.
(also, love that song!)
Dear Sandie, I sure do remember the Mamas and the Pappas, what a good group. I loved Mama Cass. She had a beautiful voice.
Thank you for the Irish blessing. It was beautiful. Have a nice day. Blessings dear friend. Catherine xoxo
HI!!!
I grew up dancing and singing to the MAMA'S and the Papa's!!!Loved their songs....
sad about some of the roads in life they chose....
Love that dress..I will pop over to facebook and LIKE them!!!
Great offer!!
hugs,
jamie
I looked but couldn't find anything. Guess I'm not in a shopping mood....lol
Hi Sandie,
I just liked Shabby Apple on Facebook.
I'm a follower of your blog :)
Dee
I love the Shabby Apple - Garden Isle
dress.
Dee
I will check out that site. I have a feeling though that the dress would not look as good on my lumpy, bumpy body as it does on the model.
Of course I remember the Mammas and the Pappas.........never heard of Shabby Apple
I am a follower so enter me too!
I'm nothing if not obedient ...lol! How did you ever discover this site, Sandie? ... I LOVE their "fit to flatter" style guide, and so many choices for us "real" ladies. My (so far!) favorite is Washington Square Park.
Yes, you KNOW I'm a happy follower, and I've also "liked" them on FB.
Whew, Monday's almost OVER!
Loved the Mammas and Pappas. Didn't they have the best sound?
So cute!! Love that vintage clothing!
No US address, but just dropping in to say 'Happy Monday' right back!
HI!!
I LIKED them on facebook and told them I love everything but my favorite dress was GOLDEN AFTERNOON.....so vintage looking!!!
hugs,
jamie
I am not familiar with the Shabby Apple, but I am pretty well acquainted with just plain old shabby. :)
Lettin' you know number 501 is here!
I love that song!
I liked Shabby Apple on FB as Judy W.
I'm not much for dresses or skirts but I love the Dark Secrets of Wonderland bracelet.
Follower? Yep, that would be me.
What a fun giveaway Sandie.
Love that song!
OK, I'll admit something: I set up a Words on Wheels facebook a while back since I don't have one of my own, and I am STILL to stupid to figure it out. I don't know how to "like" things. (Stop that snickering missy....) I can't enter, but I can say that the clothes looked right up my Whimsy's alley.
Being part Irish, I must say I love the blessing. Thanks for sharing it and The Mamas and the Papas, definitely from my era.
That is a cute, cute dress, but I don't do Facebook and all that jazz. LOL! I can barely do blogger from the looks of it, and this IPAD can only be had in the wee hours 'cause it goes to work. ;-)
Don't know what to do about the issues. I have an email address that someone sent some confounded virus to in an effort to hijack my blog. They sent it supposedly from a blog email. Yeah. Right. I fell for it. So I had to walk away before they hacked me. Or so I thought. What do I know about all this mess??? Not much!
I miss chatting with my favorite Chatty Crone. This Crone wants to email you, so if you get one from Sheila you know it's me, okay? I want to email you from my business address.
XO,
She
By business I mean where I commune with the word not play on my blog. That one. :-) I'd rather play on my blog, though. Miss you! Thanks for the suggestions and he moral support on my blogger issues.
What a fun site! I love that orange "decadence" dress but it sure would be hard to make a choice - there's a zillion lovely outfits!
Dear Sandie,I have liked Shabby Apple on Facebook. Blessings, Catherine xoxo
Hello there! Thank you for coming back to visit and you are QUITE PERCEPTIVE!!! If you ever want to chat and contact me, I do have a CONTACT button right under the music under my header. Please visit when you can! Anita
OK I'M HERE ENTERING MY POST!
AND ... AGAIN! hahahahaha.
... and ...again!
you said we could do it three times, right?
yes my doggie is so cute. She has a happy, bubbly personality and now that she is a year old, she is much more obedient - FINALLY.
I like Shabby Apple on Facebook.
I like the Aquaria dress.
I like the Ursa dress and hat from the Zoology collection. I "liked" them on FB. And I am a blog follower of Chatty Crone!!
Fun video...The Mamas and the Papas were a great group.Shabby Apple has some cool stuff.
Oh my. I actually met that group way back. Two gals and myself went to see them in Concert for two hours. My one friend had a ticket each for us. Her husbands best friend was a news guy so he got the tickets for us. They came to City TV. I was so surprised to see Momma move. Her in her boots. So sad she died.
They all had some voices and could Momma move. Thanks for sharing.
I am late getting in today.
I sure DO remember the Mama's and Papa's...in fact your blog title, that was the first thing that came to mind. And...naturally, I'll be humming the song until I fall asleep later tonight, I'm sure.
I'll telly Sandie, you can withhold my name in the giveaway this time [and this time only...LOL...for future prize drawings] 'cause I just won a book giveaway...and I want others to win like I did. But, NEXT time!!!
Ah..Monday Monday. I do sometimes have issues with that day. Good going on the Shabby Apple. Oooo, I hope I win, I hope, I win....
El Dorado...in bright orange is my choice. That's a great feminine dress.
That is a pretty dress! AND you changed your blog! Looks really nice!
Hi Sandie, Just trying to catch up a little.... Looks like you are blogging every other day now. How is that working out?
Love the Mammas and the Papas.... Always loved Mama Cass's voice. I was so sad when she died.
Hope you are doing well.
Hugs,
Betsy
