Life at the Nathaniel Morris Inn.......reflections of an Innkeeper's journey; past and present. Living in a lovely small town on the New Jersey coast......what it's like to live here, how I got here and what I'm doing with this interesting and challenging profession/lifestyle.

I Got a Little Carried Away

I had a guest call me a few days before he was to arrive. He asked if I would put a bouquet of daisies in his room so that they would be there when he and his girlfried arrived.
So yesterday after I finished up with breakfast, I went to a local florist and gift store called Muellers. Here's what I got:

a cute handpainted barrel for my Nantucket Suite....they have a little greenhouse with old stuff. I always find something in there
Mary Englebright pillow

summer reading for my guests
A Midsummer Night's Dream miniature book

Teacup Wind Chimes
And, of course.........

A beautiful bouquet of daisies.....

    I think you found some great pieces to add to the Inn, Gail.
    I'm sure your client will be happy with the daisy's you found for his girlfriend, also.
    Have a great holiday week.
