    hi Julie! this window is on the back of the house, so actually no neighbors see it;)

    Don't you just love the way our homes look at night lit from within? That's the best part of a night run errand...peekng inside as I drive by.

    Trying to think of a funny way to call you "a real hornet's nest". (tongue firmly planted in cheek)

    Kathy- you're not alone:)!

    Anon 11:21- the chandelier is from an antiques shop in Dallas.

    Giovanna- I was not, but now that you mention it I do recall getting many hits from that site not too long after I started blogging, so I assumed someone had a mentioned the blog in a thread?!

    Dianne- So true! I get to peak in my house and in others;)

    Love the peek into your dining room, but am I weird because I focused on the gorgeous mullion pattern on your window instead of everything in the room?!! ;-)

    I have ALWAYS loved looking through windows! NOT that I'm a peeping tom sort of person. Loved this photo!

    I love this view...if people can see your home from the street/road they are probably veering right now.

    So this post is for people like me who take walks at night and crane their necks to see what's inside all of those houses! Heck, I'll admit that I'm a peeping tom, but I'm looking for paint colors and art and furniture arrangements!

    P.S. I forgot to say that I'd probably walk past your house at night a lot!

    I love to walk at night, when the light from windows spills out onto the ground - it`s such a friendly light.

    Hi Joan, Dan, and Ella: I love a home that has lights on, in the evening...and not just so we can see inside! I think lighting takes a house and makes it a home. Cindy

    Love that!! I love taking walks through my neighborhood in the early evenings and seeing little peeks into peoples homes. Thats why I always have a lamp on in my front window-it just emanates a feeling of warmth & home! Great pic!

    You have such a pretty home. I came across your blog and spent hours looking. I'm excited to see all you do to your barn. We are in the middle of buying a 40 year old home that needs some work but has a lot of fun stuff already. you gave me some great ideas.
