Mary and Liz, 2021
Twenty years ago, Mary and Liz got deeply involved in the idea of someday living next to each other, with a shared garden space connecting their houses. You can see us discussing our plans in the picture to the left.
All grown up, though we do not live next to each other (or even in the same state), this is our virtual space to bring that to life. Now you can visit each of us, and our fairy tale garden that connects us.
We are sisters, writers, and lovers of fairy-tale.

Enchanted Garden Ball
Last month, my husband took me on an extra special date night. An Enchanted Garden Ball. The event was hosted by a dress company, JessaKae. It took place at a local event venue and vineyard, La Caille.
I wore a JessaKae dress, the Highgrove. I felt like a princess from one of my stories! I loved seeing everyone so dressed up. Even the men. There were fabulous dresses and suits, some people in costumes and masks. I wore a tiara. My husband wore a renaissance pirate shirt.
There were carriage rides, performers, and so so many photo opportunities. It was a fabulous date night, and felt very in line with Briarbook Lane and the Tales of Tessagonia.
