Parma Motor Vu

Parma has one of the few remaining drive-in theaters in the U.S. I just heard that there are only 450 nationwide. So we are pretty darn lucky to have one right in our back yard.





The kids have been begging me to take them all summer so we were finally able to go. They were showing Kung Fu Panda and Indiana Jones (It's always a double feature). We packed up the truck with our folding chairs, blankets, pillows, popcorn, and candy and we were set! The movies don't start until dusk which is quite late here, about 9:45pm. Some things I will not do next time we go: sit in the back of a pickup with a shell, forget my own blanket and jacket, forget a radio. Everyone loved the movie and the experience. (We only lasted through Kung Fu Panda:) Can't wait until there are some more good movies!

I Love Decorating with Accessories

It doesn't have to cost alot and it can change the feeling of any space in your home.....changing accessories is an easy way to re-decorate . I get tired of things always looking the same. I know some people need consistency, and like to surround themselves with priceless works of art....not me! I would rather decorate with in-expensive accent pieces that I can re-arrange each season and perodically put away and replace with new pieces.

I don't think my way is right and the other way is wrong, I believe decorating is personal and you should do what feels good for you. When creating a table top arrangement be sure to use items of varied heights and shapes as shown here.







You can see the difference adding a table runner to this arrangement can make. The most expensive item shown here is the table and that costs only $99.95. All of these items are available at my on-line store http://www.roseinteriors.com/
