A blog dedicated to ideas for your home from Mary Lisa
Welcome to My Blog
Welcome to my blog! My hope is to pass along ideas you will enjoy using in your homes and in your lives. No, I am not Oprah, giving you life advice or Nate Berkus redoing your pantry. My point of view is more practical if not occasionally foo-foo. Decorating should be fun and you should change your decor often. My ideas and vintage finds will help you do just that. Oh, and you may get some fun personal and family stories. We are a small family but we do a lot!
Since I started my blog a couple of years ago, I find I am writing more about "ideas" for your life. Or at least, things that happen in my life! Hopefully I put a smile on your face and help you set your dinner table.

It's Never Too Early to Start the Manners
Recently I was in a bookstore looking in the children's section. Look what I found there. These cute flash cards teaching manners. Yes, a box full will be in my grandson's Christmas stocking!
It is never too late to be kind to one another. Yes, there are many of us who seemed not to learn any manners as a child. The truth is no flash cards or books are going to change the world. Children learn by example. The "fictiitous" wedding guests had no examples! I know that for a fact...a "fictitous" fact.
The misbehaving wedding guests should have had these manner cards years ago. Maybe it't not too late.
ReplyDeleteTheses look vintage. Are they? It seems manners are vintage these days.
