ABOUT

Hello! My name is Suzanne, friends call me Sue, Suz, Suzie and Suzette, well only my husband calls me the last one, but I am glad you found your way here.   I love Donna Reed, June Cleaver, Harriet Nelson, Olivia Walton, and heck, even Carol Brady!  A dream come true for me would be if I could sit and chat with these gals over cake and coffee and talk homemaking, recipes, children and husbands (yes, I know they're not real--please don't burst my bubble!). I have always wanted to be a wife and Mum, always!

Yes, I am married, to a wonderful and quite handsome guy who plays a mean guitar, with five children and four grandchildren, so far. The children range in ages from 28 down to 8. I have been saved by the gift of Christ's finished work on the cross for 27 years now and am so thankful my mansion is being built in heaven!

I am also an admirer of the author and illustrator Tasha Tudor. I have been fortunate to tour her lovely gardens and take tea with her on a couple of occasions.  For the last few years I have co-hosted Tasha Tudor Day. I am also the list owner of a yahoo group called Take Peace, a list devoted to discussion of her art and lifestyle.
