THE SCOOP #291

THE SCOOP #291- All the best of home and garden posts all in one convenient place!

Welcome back to THE SCOOP! My heart and prayers go out to all the people in Texas who are braving Hurricane Harvey and all its devastation. Just looking at the images on tv make me cringe. God bless all of you! I know our Scoop friends will join me in praying for our Texas friends!

As our thoughts and prayers go out to everyone in Texas today’s podcast episode of Decorating Tips And Tricks is about HOW TO BE PREPARED IN THE FACE OF A DISASTER. We have lots of ideas and items that should go in a disaster backpack. We wish this world was a safer place, but YOU can take measures to help if disaster strikes! 

Please listen and take action!


 

 


 
Your host this week is Anita from Cedar Hill Farmhouse.
Hello, it’s Anita from Cedar Hill Farmhouse.
Firstly I want to thank everyone who voted for my rug design last month. We won!!! I’ll be updating you on the process, and the rug will be available for sale in spring 2018.
 
On another note, I appreciate all of the concern for me and my family. We are in Houston, and Hurricane Harvey is dumping water as I write this. Please continue to pray for Texas. We won’t be out of the woods until Thursday or Friday. Those in Corpus Christi and Rockport are dealing with devastation right now, and our thoughts and prayers are with them.
 
Do you listen to our podcast? We have so much fun and I always learn something. Today we learn what happens when you wear a long flowing skirt on a blustery day how to decorate for fall with pumpkins.
