Remembering the Hen

Good morning and welcome Through My Back Door. Help yourself to some coffee, still Cracker Barrel, and I am sorry there is nothing sweet. Yesterday I felt I needed, uhmmm, wanted something sweet so I baked a couple of biscuits and had some apple butter on them. I am glad to see you today. It is so cold, I stayed in and didn't go to church. Sometimes you just have to do that.
As I sat here this morning and looked around my little house, I had an overwhelming nostalgia for the Speckled Hen. Sharon ran that shop for years and carried the most wonderful things. I have so much that came from there.All of my FHW things(and there are a lot of them), all my upholstered pieces. and so many of my decorative things. I will share a few. All of my lighting
There are many more little "lights". I got most of my redware there.
My favorite farriers box.

Aren't these just the most delightful things? I miss the Hen, but I guess it is good I can't buy anything else, because there is just no room. Well I have had a delightful time remembering the Hen today. I will share more. More you say, how can there be anymore, well there is.lol I miss you too when you don't come Through My Back Door where life is good.

PSSS: Continue to watch for the goings on Through My Back Door, as the weather permits

    Happy Sunday Betty. I too have a special place in my heart for The Speckled Hen. It was such a special day when we first met you at The Hen's old location. What a wonderful friendship has come from that first meeting. Love all your purchases from the store. Sharon is so nice. Always visit her booth at Country Kinfolk. You have a blessed week and stay warm.

You have some beautiful things from there.. As always it is a joy to visit with you.. Stay warm and keep safe.. They are giving 8-12 inches for us here in Winchester.. Blessings!
