53rd Table Top Tuesday & A Winner

Welcome to the 53rd Table Top Tuesday.  I am so glad you joined us and I hope you visit all of the participants that link up.  You will be so inspired.

I have my computer on the buffet in the breakfast area.  It keeps me in the center of the action and I really like that.  I can watch TV, keep an eye on whatever I am cooking and blog all at the same time.  Only probem is I still want it to look nice.  I needed someplace to put a pad, pens and my Digital Camera and Flip Video Camera other than just sitting on the top of the table.  GW came thru again and I found this great little desk organizer.  It was $1.99.  Love it.


It's just the perfect size.  Love the old world map on the little slanted door and inside is the perfect size to hold both of the cameras.


 Now isn't that much better than just a pile of paper, pens and cameras sitting all over the top of the table!!!

Ok, now for the good stuff.  Thank you all that entered my giveaway for the 3 candlesticks shown below, and thank you for all the new followers.  I am so glad to meet you newcomers.  I used the randome number thingy and the winner is # 45.  (Sorry, I just could not get the generator to show)

Congratulations Donna @ One Simple Country Girl.    Email me your address to astrollthrulife@live.com and I will get it mailed right out to you.


Thanks so much for stopping by, I always look forward to your visits.
