I spend as much time as I can in our sunroom<\/a>, which I call the solarium when I’m feelin’ “all it”. \u00a0It’s a great place to get away from the air conditioning when the house is too cold for me but just perfect for Mr. Autumn. \u00a0It’s also a great place for reading the paper and blogs, writing blogs, sipping some tea, or just hanging out.<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The accessories in the sunroom are mostly leftovers from inside. \u00a0Rarely do I buy anything special for it because the ceiling<\/a> is glass, and everything gets very hot and\/or faded.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

That changed, though, when I bought a bunch of children’s books at the library’s used book sale. \u00a0They’re for the grandkids I don’t have yet. \u00a0(Where are they, anyway????????????)<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Here are a few of them. \u00a0Each book cost less than a dollar, they are by different publishers, some are paperback, some are hardcover, and some are Little Golden books.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Even though they are so varied, the do<\/em><\/span> have one thing in common. \u00a0Can you tell what it is?<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Here is a closer look.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Here’s another clue.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

You’re getting warmer!!!<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Yes! \u00a0That’s it!!! \u00a0They all have something to do with the outdoors.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

These little tabletop accessories are not only cute, but they are practical – that is if I had someone to read them to. \u00a0Hmmmmm, I wonder if the neighbor’s kids want to come over and play.<\/h3>\n
