Once Upon a Year or Two Ago
Sometimes it’s nice to take a look at where we’ve been. Every now and then I take a look through photo albums, old letters, piles of filing in my office that need to be handled…but I haven’t done much backward observation here on my blog. Today’s as good a day as any, so come along…
Friday Favorites on Thursday Night
Call me a rebel. I realized I haven’t done a Five Friday Favorites in about forever, so I’m tossing one up right now. On Thursday. No fuss, no ado, just five down and dirty favorites of the moment as they fall out of my head. Right. Now. Here they are.
Friday Favorites – Sort of Serious Edition
It has been a long and exhausting week, friends. At the moment, I feel like Atlas holding up the celestial spheres. Things to do, things to think about, places to be, worries weighing on my mind… In the midst of the chaos, though, I have a few favorite moments to share. Perhaps these are a bit…
Five Friday Favorites: Secrets for a Successful Marriage
The Fab Hub and I have no business telling anybody else how to have a happy or successful marriage. We are by far not the poster children for blissfully happy marriage. That sounds awful, doesn’t it? It’s not that we’re pessimistic or that we have a lousy relationship. Perhaps it’s just that we’re a lot…
Friday Favorites – Family Movie Night Edition (Dinner Included!)
The Disney Channel – a parent’s dream and nightmare all rolled into one. Want to render your kid absolutely still and silent for a while? Turn on Disney, Jr. for an hour or so. Then, try in vain to pry your child’s eyes away from the screen. It just sucks them in and turns them…
Friday Favorites – Frozen Pops Edition
It all started with the pink birthday soup. Kidzilla had a pink birthday party (again) this summer. One of the items she selected for her menu was a very pink chilled berry soup. I included it in the Summer Squash/Berry Bonus Soup of the Week post not too long ago. Our guests loved the soup.…
Five Friday Favorites – New Favorites Food Edition
I need to talk about food. OK, I always need to talk about food. But over the last couple of weeks, we have celebrated both Passover and Easter with all kinds of great new things to eat. Of course we’ve eaten a lot more than five things recently – a lot more – but here…
Friday Favorites – Yes, I Know It Isn’t Friday Edition
I am well aware that it is not Friday. I would like it to be, though. Does that count? But I have this little collection of new favorites in my head and I am simply too impatient to wait until Friday to share them. So here they are. Completely random, completely unrelated to one another…
Five Friday Favorites – Random Monday Edition
I started this list last Wednesday thinking I would be all set to publish on Friday. Didn’t happen. Maybe it’s because I didn’t have five things on the list. Maybe it’s because we were busy doing a hundred other things. Who knows? At any rate, better late than never, here are this last week’s favorites – completely…
Five Friday Favorites – Comfort Food Edition
How did it get to be Friday? Somehow this week has really sped by me, despite the fact that it has felt eternal. In addition, it’s been mostly cold with some snow and ice this week – real curl up under a blanket and hibernate weather. And so in homage to the icy depths of…
