Name That Gingerbread

If you have been following our blog, you will know that we have been deliberating on a fun name to call our little gingerbread since we purchased it. It was named "Chuck Full O' Nuts". We presume the "nuts" stood for the little acorn cutouts on the rails. In the Fall, people who strolled by as we were working frequently called Barry--"Chuck"! (Of course, he has been called a whole lot worse than Chuck) If we didn't think the name was bad before, we were determined to change it.

We considered anything related to Oak. Len Euart had a great idea "SeaSun'd Oak" which was the front runner for a long time. Then while walking around Key West in February, we saw a great sign "Seas the Day" and both looked at each other and said "That's it!" At this point in our lives, seize the day really seems to hit home. We are reminded that we need to capture time and make the most of every day. We also want to enjoy the ocean and all the benefits it brings to our lives: "Seas the Day" Carpe diem!

We got a small sign made that would fit exactly where we wanted it. We have toyed with a bigger, flashy sign but decided that small and simple would be best for our little cottage. Please stop by "Seas The Day" for a drink on our peaceful porch!
