My dad says I should blame it all on Vanna. It’s her fault I’ve been away so long! I love the way that sounds. But first thing’s first . . . we need MUSICA to go with our Fairy Tale.
Don’t be mad at us ~ we come bearing gifts . . . I’m sorry I’ve been away so long. I hope I didn’t worry you, I missed you just as much as you missed me! Everyone is happy and healthy around here and keeping out of trouble the best we can. You can see we are surrounded with mini-miracles, Girl and Jack in the same photo!! Yesterday! (Look at his cute folded paws!)
‘Course the whole world is a miracle now that the lilacs are in bloom . . . this is my view out the window from my art table.
Here’s up close and personal, a bee’s-eye view.
Here’s the sky view, lilacs are everywhere on the Island right now ~ it smells wonderful outside!
So here’s more of what’s been happening around here. Besides the fact that we have two new baby squirrels coming to the feeders ~ who won’t hold still for six seconds so I can take their picture, but they are adorable! The tiniest ears in the world.
Our tulips and daffodils bloomed, so perky after that cold winter. You have to call that a miracle!
And then there’s this . . . our ornamental pear tree. I’m very big on spring flowers, I like the shock of it! This does it for me!
We still have a few of these Angelique tulips in bloom . . .
My birthday was perfection, thank you all so much for your well wishes! My dad and his wife Jeanie sent me this darling birdhouse!
And the dogwood did its part by blooming soon after . . .
Heres another photo of the dogwood . . .
When Joe was digging the hole to plant the dogwood, he found that little blue bottle in it. I celebrate that little bottle all the time. Buried treasure! Kind of a fairy tale, don’t you think?
Here’s another picture of the pear . . . I can’t get enough of it. I could live there.
Here it is again, showing off with the weeping cherry and forsythia . . .
And more forsythia, not to be outdone . . .
When we bought this house in 1989, there was a wonderful magnolia in the garden that bloomed every year and made the perfect spring picture for all passers by. In fact, long before I bought this house, I used to drive past it in the spring, just to see all the wonderful flowering trees in bloom. The woman who owned the house before me, Mrs. Bowditch, was a garden lover.
This was her tree, and the legacy she left for us. But one day, this beautiful 
tree up and died, and I’ve mourned it ever since. I know Mrs. Bowditch was looking down from heaven saying, “Susan, Put it back. It’s your job.” It took three years to find the right kind here on the island to replace it with. I wanted the exact same variety. But they didn’t seem to carry it in our nurseries ~ only other varieties, with different flowers. In addition, I find it hard to trust the name tags on the trees, I trust them more if there is a flower I can see.
There was exactly one flower on this one when we found it last year at Vineyard Gardens, but it looked like the right kind!!! So excited, we took a chance and brought it home.
And prayed that it wasn’t some sort of trick. I waited for it to bloom this year, and we got lucky, because it was the right kind! It still has a way to go before it reaches the glory of the original tree, but I am so happy to have this view back! A pure pleasure. Happy Mother’s Day, Mrs. Bowditch.♥ Thank you for the inspiration!
And here we are in the way back . . . enjoying more . . .
Oh yes, we’ve been celebrating by walking through the woods out to the pond and the ocean every day . . .
The leaves are back! We watch seagulls, terns, finches and osprey flit, dive and prey and we do “Morning Science” which always starts with the words, “I wonder why” . . . Big breaths of this air soothes the winter soul. A blessing.
Speaking of blessings, here’s one of the things I missed ~ well, I missed sharing it with you ~ was Princess Charlotte’s Birth Day! Weren’t you thrilled they had a girl? How perfect! And isn’t Kate’s dress adorable?
William and Kate must wake up and pinch themselves every day! Now Kate can shop for baby dresses! Of course we non-royalty types celebrate in our own way, by drinking tea from our new Emma mugs! Not a bad way to go! Too cute! I hope everyone got one . . . Kellee announced their arrival on Facebook . . . I know they’ll sell out from Emma soon, if not already. They always have a limited supply of these special event mugs which is the good news and the bad news!
Another thing I missed with you was . . .
So, Happy Mother’s Day to all of my soul-nurturing Girlfriends. The world wouldn’t be fit to live in 
without you! You are kind of IT. ♥ I just saw a wonderful movie that I think would make the perfect Mother’s Day gift for you. It’s not new, it came out in 2011, so it’s available on Netflix and all kinds of places, even on YouTube. I know you’ll love it. It’s called The Well Digger’s Daughter. It’s French, you have to read subtitles, but it’s easy to get used to and the cinematography is heaven with lovely views of the French countryside. I loved the musica too. And the dad in this movie is wonderful too. Also, the clothes on his five daughters! It’s set just as WWI is beginning. So happy Belated Mother’s Day dearest ones!♥
So where have I been? What is my pitiful excuse? You aren’t buying the Vanna excuse? I didn’t think so.
I’ve been doing this ↑. I’ve been writing our book. I made you a promise to try to have it before Christmas do I decided to put my shoulder into it and make it actually happen. The Musica for today was a hint. I’ve been playing it for inspiration and strength. I think anyone who must march to a finish line would be helped by playing this music.
And this is where I am now. Deep into my watercolors, making new art for our new book, which finally has a name. You’ll be the first to know . . . ready? I’m scared . . . OK, here we go . . .
Here’s the first time I wrote it . . . trying it on for size . . . to be or not to be, that is was the question.
And I liked it! So here’s where I got serious.
And here’s where I started to mean business.
And here’s where there’s no turning back. Yesterday, Kellee posted THE FAIRY TALE GIRL in the web store for presale (everytime I type presale, my auto fix changes it to “resale” and now it’s 
changing autofix to “outfox.” Stop helping me outfox!)
Anyway, this is the book I’ve been trying to write since about 2006 and would not have been happy in life if I didn’t. I had to, even though it’s a completely new thing for me and I had to practice by writing A FINE ROMANCE first. Which was not only fun, but very helpful as far as learning is concerned.
THE FAIRY TALE GIRL began as just one book, but when I added the art and photos and recipes, it was too big, so I had to make it two books ~ The Fairy Tale Girl comes complete with a cliff hanger ~ so very soon we’ll also have the sequel called MARTHA’S VINEYARD, ISLE of DREAMS. And guess what else? They are novels! Based on my diaries.
I know, but it’s true. And this isn’t even all of them! So, of course I’m scared to death! But counting on the fact that
I’m plowing forward despite trepidation. I think you will like it, it’s sort of like the blog only more and longer. For the next month, before it goes to print, I will be digging through old
photographs like this one, laying out my pages in the book with them so you can see what I’m writing about ~ and painting the art so you can go on a little virtual journey with me back to the 1900s. What do you think? A novel with pictures!
For those of you interested in preordering The Fairy Tale Girl, yours will be signed copies and shipped to you first before anyone else ~ as soon after August 15th as possible, on a first-come first-serve basis (because we really never know how many to print of these things). The actual “Publication Date,” when you should be able to find it in stores, is October. That’s so we have time to send books to reviewers.
And now, because I’ve been away so long, and because that was bad, I want to make it up to you by GIVING AWAY the first ten copies of 
THE FAIRY TALE GIRL to ten of YOU! So leave a comment and we’ll have a drawing, and wear poor Vanna out with all the work to choose ten winners! It’s good for her! They’ll ship out the moment they arrive. And BTW, if my Blog is delivered your email address, you need to come here to www.162.240.10.175/~susanbs3/susanbranch/ in order to leave a comment ~ at the very bottom of this post, where you see a row of tiny words, look for “comment,” click there, and voila, leave a comment, and you’ll be entered.
for your support ~ love you Girls.♥ Everyday I’ve thought the same thing as I’ve been writing, “What would the Girlfriends like me to tell them about?” This time it’s a fairy tale, complete with a Prince Charming, a bite of poison apple, and lessons learned! We all have a bit of that fairy tale in us, right? ~ but I’m not telling anymore! Until maybe next time. Previews are only fair. ♥
Have a wonderful day! XOXO
oh my I cannot wait!
I’ve really missed you. So glad all is well. Love that the new book will be available soon.
would love a copy of your first novel! please enter me in drawing!
I was so exited to see a new posting! I love seeing things through your eyes! Can’t wait for the new book to come out!
“Fairy tales come true it can happen to you, if you’re young at heart.”. Susan, this new book sounds fantastic! Keeping my fingers crossed!
Oh, I can hardly wait! So excited to have another book by you.
I was enjoying the afternoon perusing your wonderful book _Girlfriends_Fover_ yet again. I came here hoping to learn of other books you might have as I receive tremendous joy reading all of your books. I pull out _Autumn_ as soon as the summer air turns crisp or there is a hint of color change among the Virginia trees near my home. I am absolutely delighted to read about your two new novels! What a lovely idea! Most great novels are born out of an authors own life. J’ai hâte de le lire! I can’t wait to hold it in my hands! ~ Kipperly
Your book looks beautiful, can’t wait to see it all! The dogwood, oh I love them so, my favorite of all!
Congratulations on your new book! Cant wait to read it and savor it like I did A Fine Romance. I love all that you do, and I know it isnt easy… But please know it is appreciated by all of us girlfriends! xox
You’re living the dream of every little girl when she grows up.
Thanks for sharing it with us.
So excited to read your new books! Yay!

So happy it’s a fairytale, my most favorite of all! I will let the winning up to my fairy godmother… Best of luck with it, I’m sure it will be most wonderously magical!
Love the title of your new book! And what gorgeous flowers blooming in your neck of the woods. Also love the pic of Girl and Jack together. 🙂
So glad to hear from you!!! I cannot wait for the new book. I may have to read A Fine Romance again to tide me over 🙂
I love fairytales! Im so excited about you new book. Thank you for continuing to write and such beautiful illistrations.

I can’t wait to read it and will pre-order it soon. I’ll give a copy to a friend if I win one of the ten. Thanks, Susan, for making my dreary MN day a lot brighter!

I KNEW you were away so long writing your lovely book! So glad to see your newest blog and to hear all about the book. Please enter me in the giveaway and I’ll also pre-order a copy in case Vanna doesn’t pick my name. Thanks for making this dreary Minnesota day a lot brighter!
I love A Fine Romance and was sad when it ended, so I am thrilled you are writing another book!!
So glad all is well! When you didn’t post about the new royal baby I started to worry. Looking forward to seeing all your hard work!
Hi Susan!
Not just any fairy tale will do!! Yours will be extra special because you’re REAL PEOPLE of this time and space in my life. I need a fairy tale…one with a happy ending – there’s just been too much sadness for me the last 2 years. I even lost my voice to write. Could not find the energy, I’m sorry. I was reading though, cross my heart, I was reading and looking for a sparkle for my heart. Thank you!
Love,
Erica E.
PS I see there’s another Erica on here! *waving*
So happy you are okay. I loved seeing all your miracles. Love the cover of the new book, too. I have baby squirrels, so much fun to watch. As I write this I am “recovering” from four hours of gardening. Beginning a new garden, weeding out the old gardens…dirt under my fingernails.
My comment is a 3 part comment: a. I was thrilled to see a new blog from you. (I was beginning to worry); b. Can’t wait for the books; and, c. I hope Vanna picks me.
Can’t wait to read the new book!
Sooooo excited about the new book! I have been a fan for years and have all of your books! The artwork, recipes, and stories are so lovely! And your blog is definitely a bright spot in my day!
I missed you too!!! Two of the baby cardinals hatched in my rose bush, but now they are gone. I hope the evil Blue Jay didn’t get them.
My friend is moving back to Maine and her cat looks like Jack with half a mustache. LOL
I am glad that you have one book behind you. I just love your calligraphy. I always wanted to be able to do that. Make up my own font. I just don’t have a clue how to start.
So glad all is well in your world – I’ve missed you! I love the title of your book – it is fits you to a T – and I love to read your stories, can’t wait. 🙂
I am so happy you’re back! It’s lovely to look at your spring pictures, here in Virginia we’re a few weeks ahead of you. Feels like summer today – 90 deg & humid. Not good for my hair, but great for my vegetable garden 🙂 I can’t wait for the new books – I so enjoyed reading A Fine Romance!
Sweating with you! LOL
I really enjoyed A Fine Romance Falling in love with the English Countryside. I can’t wait to read your next book. Your beautiful watercolors and pictures make your books so delightful. Sharon
I think you are so extraordinarily brave! To leave the life you knew in California and move to Martha’s Vineyard…I can’t wait to read about your adventures and trials and tribulations in your new fairytale girl book! You are such an inspiration! Thank you!!
Dear Susan,
I am so glad to hear from you. I am glad to hear that you and your family are doing well. I love the title of your new book, and I am so excited to read it.
Sincerely,
Alice
Yippee…the excitement is building…bring it on…I need some of that. Pick me, Vanna.
I missed you!!! Happy Spring and I can’t wait to see the book!
I would love, love to have a copy of Fairy Tale Girl !!!!
I have been wondering where you’ve been hiding! I spend my lunch break perusing your website and blog (my escape). How I’ve missed you! Love that picture of Jack and Girl Kitty. And your garden!! I used to have a lilac bush but had to leave it behind when I sold my house. I also had over 80 rose bushes and miss them so much! I was smart enough to draw a map of my former garden so I can someday have the same roses in my next garden…sigh…someday.
I just ‘made’ a little library in our old ‘breakfast room’. These would be the perfect addition to my collection. Love the idea.
Susan’s books are delightful and wonderfully whimsical, like a tea party in a beautifully flowered, shady spot for your heart and mind. I’d love to win one.
Pick me Vanna! 🙂
Hi Sue,
I’m so happy your back.
Tomorrow is my birthday so maybe I will get picked. I would love to give my girlfriends your new book. They have all checked out my other Susan books and the trill would be had by all if I told them they were getting one. Thank you in advanced.
PS.. I preordered me one. Happy Birthday to me….
Hi Joe….
Gail Rose
Happy Birthday Gail!
Hi Susan! I love your Fine Romance book…heck…I love all of your books and designs! I cannot wait to read your new book! – Your loyal supporter – Marisa!
just a little note to say thank you for all the joy you have brought me, my husband of 40 yrs. has terminal cancer and is on hospice, I’m his care giver 24/7 but I wouldn’t have it any other way, he has been my right arm my whole life! my daughter told me a few yrs. back, mom the just don’t make them like dad any more! she is so right, so now it’s my turn to show him how much he’s loved by taking care of him like he’s always taken care of me, I do need a brake now and then, you are my escape! love the music as much as your humor! thanks
Blessings you both of you dear Carla. . . sending love xoxo
A whale of a Fairy Tale it will be I am sure. Would love to win one!
Yesterday, Prince Charming interrupted the women’s church class I was teaching to kiss me goodbye–before he left to catch a plane. After 42 years of marriage, I’m STILL a fairy-tale girl!
The novel sounds like a dream!!! I am still swooning over A Fine Romance.
Oh Susan! A real live fairy tale! I can hardly wait! How did you know it is just what I have been hoping for!
Thank you for knowing my heart :).
Kindred spirits!
Susan, your many passionate talents are a true gift to me. I feast each time I delve into a new post, etc. with joy written on my face, flooding my heart. Thank you!
I don’t know if you know, but Debs from Wales is going through something now. I didn’t see a comment from her here. Could you put her name in the drawing anyway?? I am worried about her…
Done! xoxo
I can’t wait to get this book for my daughters, Lindsay and Deanna and for myself!! So excited!!!
So happy to have you back! It hasn’t been the same without you. Cant wait to read the new books. A true fairy tale. What could be better. Of course I’d love to win one but it goes on my wish list for Christmas just in case this isn’t my turn to win. Happy Spring!
So glad to have you back. Loved the picture of Girl and Jack together. I have three and can never catch them all together with a camera in my hand! Really looking forward to reading your new book (as well as others to come — wonderful). Thank you.
Susan; you have been missed but it looks like you have been working very hard. Can’t wait to read the next books. A Fine Romance is still in my night stand. Love to re read sections all the time
Looking forward to the books being published. Can’t wait to start reading. Many thanks!
So nice to read a new post and to see the blooms! We have had ours, moved on to iris and peonies, and now have fireflies! Love spring. Looking forward to my trip to Martha’s Vineyard next month!
Susan, I was on the edge of my seat while reading this post! I CAN’T WAIT to read your new book(s). I know they will be beautiful.
Welcome back! Missed you! Happy to hear that all’s well in your world.
Wow what a difference a few weeks make in your garden in fairy tale land.
So beautiful! I am excited for the new book!!!::∞
Just to give you a smile, I should tell you that my Rick is reading “A Fine Romance” every night for a few minutes before we go to sleep. Each night I ask him: “Where are they now?” and smile when he tells me all the wonderful things you and Joe are doing and that I have read about at least 20 times. 🙂 We are planning a visit to England in the fall and your book is a great help in ideas for at least part of the visit. I wish we had time to do it all on a “Susan and Joe tour” but we’ll have to settle for just part and save some to do on a return.
SO, SO excited for “The Fairy Tale Girl” !!!!!
xxooxx
Looking forward to this book!! By the way, I love the pretty white dress…
Hi Susan!!
You’re just such an inspiration—you know I’ve been on your journey with you all along. It’s so fun to see and hear about so many new girlfriends finding out about you and being inspired, too. That is one ‘good’ thing about the internet and computers. It has just opened up the ‘word of mouth’ thing across all boundaries, from one end of the globe to the other.
You know I’d love to receive your book-what a blessing!!
All the best and LOTS of love!!
xoxo
Joann
It brought us together, pretty darn wonderful! Thank you Joann!
It will be a wonderful book. Also, you have such beautiful trees and flowers! Thank you for all you share with us.
i can’t wait to get my hands on this book!! Sounds amazing!
I can’t wait to read this book and its sequel! So if I could win an early copy, that would be just lovely! We have indeed missed hearing from you but I am glad your spring was so pretty.
Really looking forward this book. Your blogs always brighten my day!
Susan, Your new book is incredible!!!! Thank you so much for the opportunity to win one. I love fairy tales. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!
Love the title of your new book!
Wow – 1,755 people responded before me but like you, Susan I do believe there are little miracles filling our lives with joy!
Excited for your new book!
Every Girl loves a good fairy tale. Secretly men do too! What an wonderful title!
I was thinking we might need a “plain brown wrapper” cover so the men can have one too!
SO looking forward to your new book(s); I talk to everyone I can about “A Fine Romance,” even promoting it to the manager of Munro’s Books in Victoria, BC, when we were there last June for our son’s wedding. Victoria is a slice of Britain on the southern tip of Vancouver Island (the Empress Hotel, High Tea and all), so when I asked at Munro’s Books if they knew of YOUR book, she wrote down the title for further research! Sure hope they have it now!
Oh me too, thank you Janet!
So excited about your new book. I totally enjoyed A Fine Romance, recommended it to everyone, and gifted it to a few!
Your spring blog post is amazing. You do live in paradise!
Bobbi
OK, my turn. Thank God, you came back online in your blog! I thought you had gone off and Twittered instead. I thought you had gotten tired of all the extra work it takes to post your wonderful photos and share your inner thoughts with all of us. I had just about lost hope! But all is forgiven now that I know where you’ve been – like a mother anxious for a lost child until she comes home late after all!
And your new book? OMG, I love the title and of course I will be buying it! Unless I am lucky enough to be chosen by Vanna ~~Welcome back!
You continually delight us! You are a perpetual adventure and ongoing inspiring teacher! I can hardly wait to have any new book you give us. Thank you so very much.
Aaaahhhh! At last. I kept checking for a new post, but knew you were hard at work on this and didn’t want to disturb. I swear I could smell all the beautiful flowers in this post. Our lilacs bloomed several weeks ago and are gone now, but so many other things are in bloom, so that’s okay. We’ve been getting rain here in Southern Colorado – very unusual to have days in a row without much sun, but it is nice not to have to water so much. And the inside of the house gets so neglected this time of year, so it does give me time to catch up on that.
The miracle of Girl and Jack reminded me that about a week ago our neighbor came over and sat down on the sofa and our feral kitty Katniss Everdeen went up to him and started sniffing his shoes and pants. I warned him to be careful because though she loves me and Bob, she attacks visitors and has been known to draw blood. If she doesn’t just hide, she usually comes out and puffs up and hisses and will even attack me to show how tough she is I think. Well miracle of miracles, he put his hand down, and she let him pet her for a second! We couldn’t believe it, so we’re calling him the cat whisperer now! We’ve had her about 3 years now, and though she still seems so fearful of so many things, I’m hoping this may be the beginning of a kinder, gentler kitty.
We have seen the Well Digger’s Daughter – maybe about a year ago on Netflix, and it is a wonderful movie. We have actually seen several French movies that are so well done, and don’t mind reading sub-titles. I’m always thrilled when I understand a word or two.
I’m so looking forward to the new book, and I LOVE!!!!! the cover photo. Romance – isn’t it the best :o)
Please forgive the length of this post, but then, it has been a while.
Susan, so glad that you’re back, I started to get worried! So excited about the new book and the fact that we won’t have to wait too long to start reading it! I’m so looking forward to reading it, hoping to get one of those early copies.
Can’t wait!
All girls young and old love fairy tales! Waiting for my dreams to come true!
Fairytale Princess ! we , none of us really grow up , do we ? Thank goodness . If it wasn’t for our imaginations we would be like jellies on a warm summers day…gloop…Thank you Susan for brightening my days…..Fairytale Princess can’t wait
I would love to win your book. You are such an inspiration to me. Life is a Fairy Tale, its all how you look at it. Inside my wedding band we had engraved 18 years ago this coming Sunday …”Once upon a time…” and engraved inside my husband’s is …”happily ever after”.
Perfection!
Aren’t the dogwoods so beautiful?! My pink and white dogwoods were planted almost 50 years ago and they are, finally, sprouting out babies around the garden!
I am so excited to read The Fairy Tale Girl 🙂
I can’t wait to read The Fairy Tale Girl!
Aren’t the dogwoods so beautiful?! My pink and white ones were planted in the yard about 50 years ago by my Dad and they are, finally, sending out little babies to grow!
I cannot wait for the new books, Susan! Thank you for sharing the beautiful versions of your hand lettered title – gorgeous!
Love your books and I can’t wait to read this one!
I can’t wait for the new book, Susan! Thank you for sharing the versions of your beautiful hand lettered title – gorgeous!
Oh, Susan, dear Susan, how will I be able wait for this fantastic book, and then another to follow!! And the cover is to die for. Thank you for this wonderful blog with spring blooming on the island. I have to plan a return trip to Newport before I am too old to travel☺️
Oh Sweet Sue I missed you so! I am so excited about your new book! If it’s anything like a fine romance it will be amazing. I treasure all of my SB books and Just like you think of all of the girlfriends when you are writing, I always think of you sitting on my shoulder whenever I quilt, garden, decorate, antique etc… Love you <3
Your book will be a runaway best seller. Could only be given your history and talent. I cannot wait to read it. I love that you are writing a novel WITH PICTURES ! Novels should come with pictures, is what I have said for a long time.
I too loved the Well Digger’s daughter!
Welcome back! Love all the beautiful photos. Can’t wait to read your new book!
Second try…won’t take my comments…hmmmmm. Can’t wait to read your new book!
Right now I’m filling out Grandma Tell Me Your Story… and the same very special girl and Grammy LOVE fairies. This is a must have for the two of us! ♥
So, so excited to read your newest book!! I love them all!!
How exciting Susan! If this book is an 1/8 as wonderful as A Fine Romance, it will be treeeemendous! Can’t wait. Speaking of trees what is the name of the magnolia tree you planted? It doesn’t look like the ones in Ga. Thanks and draw my name please:)
We just got back from Prince Edward Island (opening the cottage), and there were no leaves on the trees, my daffodils were only up about an inch, and there was still SNOW in the woods, the corners of the fields, and on the beaches! While Massachusetts was in the 80’s last week, it was flannel sheets for us! Snow should be gone when we go back in June!
Oh I would love to be one of the lucky ones to receive one of the give away books ;0 Thanks for the opportunity!
Looking forward to another AMAZING book Susan! Can’t wait! Thank you!
Just look at you! So proud of you, and just can’t wait to read your fairy tale….hopefully there will be lots of your personal touches in amongst the words!
Happy Spring!
Excited!!
hi Susan, you have so many girlfriends that I can’t even find my post, (or a possible response from you) once I’ve made it! 🙂 however, I do love reading your blog, and would be quite happy if I were to be one of the lucky ten! I love reading about places that I’ll never be able to travel to – Martha’s Vineyard and England….
So exciting Susan! I can hardly wait for you newest book! Thank you for the opportunity! Jonna
Would love to have my fairy tale come true and win your new book!
