There’s a magazine publication here in Cobb County called Little Black Dress/Little Red Wagon, which features a diversity of local talent and happenings around the county.  The founder and editor is Elizabeth Cossick and she recently came to my house for an interview and photoshoot, featuring my house and my blog in the August issue.  It’s so exciting to get featured in your own hometown and I’m so thrilled each time it happens.  I’ve been in Atlanta Magazine, the Atlanta Journal and Constitution, and now Little Black Dress.  It never gets old, believe me!

The above picture was taken earlier this year when the ATL Journal and Constitution did a home feature and before I moved things around in my living room. Â Here’s a new shot of it now.
Elizabeth sent me the PDF to share with all my readers, since all of you do not live here locally to see the magazine in person, so I’m sharing it today.

Just click the above link to open the PDF with all the pictures!  So happy my dad gets recognition in all this with me and I get to share it all with y’all!  You have all been the biggest cheerleaders for me and I couldn’t do this blog without you all coming back day after day. Thank you for that! I appreciate you all more than you can possibly know!
Congratulations Rhoda!
This brought tears to my eyes Rhoda! I’m so happy for you! Congratulations to you and your lovely Dad! xx

Rhoda you and your Dad are the real deal! Congratulations!
You are absolutely correct: Your readers root for you and we all love your dad!
Oh, your dad looks great in that photo! He’s really got the Southern spirit and communicates it so well….please do more posts on him and his activities; it’s a way of life that is quickly passing away and we should soak it all in while we can–the greatest generation for sure!!!!!!!!!!!! God bless him!
Gorgeous, Rhoda! Congratulations on being published again.
Thanks Rhoda for staying true to your own voice and sharing your life with your fan club! Congrats on the feature article!
Hello there Graceful Rhoda!! We are all so proud of you, and I both love and get your comment about your career beginning after 50. Your dad and you both demonstrate that we don’t stop with the years — when we stop growing, we stop! Mike (my husband) and I “refired” after ages 58 and 65 with our kayaking business which took off like crazy.
Life is good. Continue on!! XOXO Eva
Awww! Love your Dad and that he is so supportive of you! Congratulations on this article! It was great!
Congratulations!! She really captured everything that is unique about you. Thanks for sharing this.
Congratulations on a great article. It’s a wonderful validation of all your ( and your Dad’s) hard work! I love your blog and read it daily.
That is such a wonderful article and the way the pictures are presented really shows off your house in the beautiful way that it should be. You should be walking on air after that write-up! I enjoy your Blog so much!
Rhoda, So proud for all that you have done. You are always so helpful and quick to respond and we all love you!!
And I want to know where you got that grayish mirror behind you and your Dad. I hope it was Hobby Lobby. Maybe there is a chance I can still buy it.
Thanks, Doris
Hi, Doris, that mirror was from Kirklands a couple of years ago. It’s now in my den.
Thank you so much
Congratulations! I love your home. It is so beautiful, and you are truly an inspiration to me, since I, too, am an “over 50’s blogger”. Thanks for all your hard work!!
Congratulations Rhoda! What a great feature! Your story has certainly been an encouragement to everyone!
Great article and pictures!
Congratulations, Rhoda! Love your home! I enjoy following your blog – you are my favorite. Your parents are precious.
Congratulations Rhoda, the photos look gorgeous, your house is colourful and fresh and interesting. I followed along with your renovations, they were fabulous posts and also thought how wonderful your dad was in doing all that work at his age…I am sure it is all those fresh home grown organics your parents grow.
I have recently been interviewed for Houzz but yet to make a magazine issue…one day maybe 🙂

Congratulations! Well deserved, you’ve worked and through it all you’ve been true to yourself, a kind grace filled lady.
