New Orleans State of Mind...



Oil paintings tell stories...
They are moments in time,
captured on canvas.
Napoleon House...
The true essence of old New Orleans...
The French Quarter...
The buildings...
The food...
The music...
It stays with you forever.




Jazz music throughout the country house...
The strong smell of good organic coffee...
Rustic Country House Bread baking...
It's cleaning day...
There is a scent of orange and lemon oil left behind in the old wood floors and furniture...

A few rambling thoughts from some old journals...

"The life-changing magic of tidying up."

Autumn in the countryside...

Home is where memories are made,
and traditions are created...

The country house...
It's not so much a place,
as it is a state of mind...

Rooms that have a soul,
and character -
Rooms that feel so warm and comforting -
Rooms that resonate with travel,
and lives well-lived...

Live well, and enjoy life,
for one day,
you may run out of time.

Blessings,
Yaya
