Leading MAN

.

"Remember the crazy lady in Fatal Attraction?"
Actress Glenn Close is receiving another great buzz for her role in Albert Nobbs. 
It's very easy to understand why, considering that she portrays a woman 
struggling to succeed in late 19th century Ireland by pretending to be a man!

Perhaps the Academy Award should nominate her for both 

best actor & actress next year?! Can't wait to watch this movie!

~XOXO*

Lisa Jordan certainly has amazing vintage button collection!

To view more of her projects here & her shop here.

I really ought to search for those spare buttons in my drawers now!

Anywayyy...

a lot of activities were going on outside my country house 

over the weekend! ~take a look :

.

Around this time of the year, the gardeners are always busy pruning 

the overgrown trees on the property.

It's always so fun to watch them climbing all over the trees.

All the tree branches were later shredded and collected for the compost pile.

The rich compost will go back to the ground soil next spring! 

.

The matured Oak tree next to the house is looking so much better now.

.

...and so is the view from my desk!

Glorious autumn sunset in the countryside...

an extra blanket and slip on my cozy socks to bed.

It seems like we're skipping fall season & going straight to winter?!
