Who loves voting?

That is my dream nook. A dream I tell you. There is poetry on the pillow, some fragarant herbs growing away, while the book is just waiting for me to pick it back up and escape! Please and thank you.

As Google may or may not have told you, today marks the 90th anniversary of the 19th Amendment. Go Women's suffrage! Love voting.
Does this make anyone else think of Mary Poppins?
The wife coming home from her rally, love that movie.

And here's a fun (really absurd) fact about all that: Mississippi didn't ratify the amendment until 1984. What?! Yes, that is not a typo.

I love that nook. I just got a new window seat, and have been working on decorating it. Your picture is inspirational :)

I have always kind of wanted a nook like this...but what I really want is a hammock, complete with endless summer days on which to enjoy it!
