I am not a hearts and flowers kind of girl. Last week Friday while everybody was posting photos of pink and red, flowers and candy. I posted a picture of cows. That's me, always going against the grain.
Find No.2
I did find a lovely Valentine present at an Antique Shop that I thanked Glen for when he got home. I am going to have so much fun photographing this beauty.
Find No. 3
Find No. 4
For my real Valentine's Day present, Glen got us tickets to a wine and cheese pairing at a nearby winery. Discovered some lovely new cheeses.
Find No. 5
Local, old fashion stores are the best. They graciously let me take some photos inside their store.

Of course no pun intended on going against the grain, right? lol :)
I love the typewriter, lucky girl...I wish I had my grandmothers old one...who would have known I would have wanted it at age 28? And...I think I may have to come to the other side with that new app...I read that they won't make it for droid - drats and double drats!!
Gotta love old typewriters and cheese and wine :)
I'm not a hearts and flowers girl either - Valentines is a non-event in our house...
Great Random 5 and have a fab Friday!
I love cows!!! Used to collect Mary's Moos....so pictures of cows in whatever setting are right up my alley! There's not a thing wrong with beating your own drum.....we are encouraging our grandchildren to do just that. Love that typewriter! Does it work?
Hi :) Found u through nancy's blog. I love your cow pics!!! I grew up on a sheep ranch, and we usually always had a cow or two. There is a new picture app? I barely have time for IG :) I love the typewriter. I am not a wine person, but that sounds lovely!!! I LOVE old fashioned stores. They are definately a dying breed. There is one that my family frequents all the time, and i love to go there when I get out there. They even have sweets!!! (no, i am not British, I just tend to use British-like words..). Come and visit!
Beautiful Friday post.Love the watercolor print.
Gorgeous shots!
Thanks for sharing.
Hope to see you on my blog:)
that is a neat app, though I don't even have a phone that takes photos, I'm resisting :-). Great shot of the Cows, I love cows. The old typewriter is great photo prop.
I got a chuckle from the cows with the pierced ears.
i love old fashion shops like that one ... so fun. the candies & trinkets are too fun to look at. i really look forward to seeing where you feet my go ... enjoy it on instagram too. ha. ha!! by the way do you ever wear high heels or flip flops?? ( :
Wonderful old typewriter! What a find!
I have an old typewriter also. Can't wait to see what you will do with it. Looks like you had a wonderful day!
LOVE the cows:)
Glen is an excellent shopper, great typewriter and oh yes the other present:)
Love your Fortinos. B
Sounds like wonderful Valentines gifts!
Great Randoms Sarah . . . now I'll go back and see what your friend has to say about Waterlogue.
I wish there was a comparable app like this for android -- must look.
I have 3 old typewriters here at home -- they are getting hard to find these days!
I love the head of cattle! Sweet little heads! The typewriter is gorgeous! I love browsing through our local antique shops for fun things too.
The more of the Waterlogue app I see, the more I want an updated device to use it on….soon! The general store is always a delight to wander around in and find the most unusual things to buy!
I love your typewriter!!! I think you have sold me on the app. Your old fashion store looks like a lot of fun to shop at.
Your old typewriter is a dream for everyone who loves old stuff (like me)!
Gorgeous shot and editing!
Really love it!
Brigitte
Those cows are too much! And I really like that old typewriter too, what a find.
I love "different" so I appreciate your take on things...Love the old typewriter and yes waterlogue is a wonderful new app...I have had so much fun with it. I hope you have a wonderful weekend....
Oh my, another great post! You always deliver! Cows are totally cool! And that vintage typewriter, awesome! I'm hungry looking at the cheese plate now! And my fave...the candy right in front of the booze! Yep, my kind of place! Aloha
Love me some cows!!! and that Waterlogue app rules at the moment! that typewriter is beautiful. They are fun to shoot.
Well your cows were just wonderful. They need "lovin" too.
Cool old typewriter and I love what you did with that Watercolor App. - My phone is a basic, make a call type phone so no fancy camera or apps. on it.
That cheese plate looked delicious and the store looked very interesting.
The typewriter is an awesome find! Love that app...longing for a similar one for android.
Sarah - you really scored with wine/cheese AND the antique typewriter. Now I suppose I must look at Waterlogue - I'm already too hooked on photo editing apps. That store is fabulous!
Love the cow shot!
And I have a crush on that typewriter. I have been searching and searching for one .... but I don't want to spend an arm and a leg on one.
I picked up the Waterlogue app .... haven't played with it yet. Looks great!
Have a nice weekend.
diane @ thoughts and shots
I think cow photos are great .
Would love to browse that old fashion store , looks like a great one.
Hi sarah ... i just discovered Waterlogue also...but i still need to practice more, it sure is fun! I love that typewritter ...would you believe that my Mom threw one just like it out in the garbage? Sure wish she still had it! have a great weekend!
Lovely typewriter. Wish I could have joined you at the wine and cheese tasting. Sounds delicious.
Looks like your Valentine week was very special! I love the old typewriter and the old store is fantastic!
Oh, that typewriter! You are so lucky to find that. What a treasure. And the old store with all that candy -- how fun. Thanks for sharing your week!
A great find - my in laws were getting rid of a typewriter like that. It now sits in my basement waiting for me to take pictures!
I love both versions of your old typewriter - what a great photo prop! (Thanks for the link back to my blog!) Your Random Friday Finds is another post I look forward to each week. You're right, I'm not a jump on the bandwagon person, but I'm beginning to think I'd like to jump onto that one! By the way, I completely agree with you about local, old-fashioned stores. They're so much more interesting - and rewarding to browse through - than those enormous big-box chains.
I'm not a hearts and flowers sort of gal, either - we really are kindred spirits! Lovely typewriter, an I really do need to check out waterlogue because it does look pretty cool!
I had an old typewriter just like that when I was little - no idea where it came from though but it was so very heavy and the ink was really blotchy - just like the fonts I like these days! As always … great photos!
I also love the old typewriter..I got one at the thrift store also and it's still in my garage...you remind me that I should bring it in the house...and PHOTOGRAPH it...
Love the wine and cheese...my kind of meal some nights..(weekends mostly) and yes to stores that let us photograph inside...
A beautiful post today Sarah
I love the cows with their "earrings" lol !
I am in love with your typewriter!
Glad I found you Sarah! Thank you for your visit to my blog. The wine and cheese pairing at the winery sounds wonderful! Thanks for the tip on Waterlogue.. I love playing with pictures! Cool typewriter.. :)
That's the first I've heard of Waterlogue. Your wine and cheese event sure sounds fun.
That is an awesome app! I saw it reviewed on another blog too and loved it. Alas, I don't own a cell phone.
I need to find that store! Love the typewriter. Now that's my idea of a Valentine gift.
I love the old store. I have to get up my nerve to ask to take photos in one near me. It is a real treasure.
