However, I loved seeing your collections. That pretty soup tureen that you have with the brown shamrocks...I have the set of dishes in the blue!! Happy New Year blessings to you.
This is the first I've heard about your adorable meme and I WILL be here for the next. I am putting your meme button on my side so I won't forget. I am OLDEN and tend to forget my name sometimes.
Your collections are awesome and that house you live in is a DREAM. So beautiful.
I am glad to be here, following.

Happy New Year Alison! I am finally digging out from the Holiday & spent this morning drinking coffee, eating fudge & catching up on a months worth of your beautiful blog! I feel all Christmassy again seeing the beauty of Polohouse for the holidays.
Thanks for having the Collections gathering today- I added a few of my doggies and my bottle brush trees on the mantle (before I dismantle!)
Looking forward to more of your musings and pretties :)
