No sooner are the leftovers transformed into some nameless dish; the holiday decorations are out of their bins and onto front lawns everywhere.

This can be challenging for some of us. Too much, too soon we cry!

Hi, Nancy. Really enjoyed this post. I liked seeing the restaurant as well as more of your work. Good job!
Oh, what a fun restaurant! I love whimsy. I used to have a very whimsical house until I got married in 2003 and became more mainstream. But I still sneak things in every now and then. But come Christmas, it's all out war. I love unpacking the festive! (And I'm equally happy to pack it away on December 26.)
@Susan - The restaurant was a total Allison in Wonderland. A wealthy widow's fantasy from what I understand. And there was a lot of original art there as well! Send her our way, right?!
@Alyson- my mother in law lives with us and is a total elf... had her whole house decorated to the nines at Christmas. Not quite our style but we do some Chanukah and Christmas decorating. You'll have to post pictures of your house at Christmas! can't wait to see...
Nanci, I loved being reminded to notice the whimsy all around me. Your blog looks and feels great!
Love the manniquin art! Wow! What a gift. Thanks for sharing these images; your art is inspiring.
