Simple and Serene Living: have you met?

have you met?

I bet you thought I forgot about my Pay it Forward series, where I introduce you to some special blogging friends. I know many of you know her already, but for those of you who don't, I want to introduce you to Ricki Jill who writes the blog Art@Home. I think you will have to agree with me that Ricki Jill is one of the sweetest people you will ever meet. She exemplifies southern hospitality.

She shares real photos of her home.

Ricki Jill is an avid reader and shares her reviews of the books she reads.

Ricki Jill writes her happy list every week and I loved it when she brought back wonderful memories for me this week by sharing this. I've been singing it for two days. You know how much I love cheery songs.

She shares her cooking attempts with us, good and bad ( although I personally can't imagine Ricki Jill ever cooking up anything that wasn't delicious)

and then there are her always sweet table settings.

Well, I'm sure you get the idea. Ricki Jill is just wonderful, and I am so happy she has become a blogging friend. So if you don't already follow her, make sure you hop right on over to Art@Home
