This week has been one of simple pleasures–no big adventures or family get togethers–just enjoying life in the moment. Today’s Friday Favorites reflects that. One of life’s simple pleasures for me is the occasional cookie from Swig. This one happens to be peanut butter with chocolate frosting, and it was divine. (You should be proud…
This week I had the pleasure of going on a girls trip with my sister Cindy and my best friend Margie. (This photo is actually from last year’s trip. I gave the girls a break from my constant picture-taking this year.) We rented a townhouse in beautiful Park City. It had all the comforts of…
Hello Friday! This week’s Friday Favorites is a collection of random images from my camera matched up with some of my favorite quotes. I hope you enjoy. Apparently we love our own cell phones but we hate everyone else’s. – Joe Bob Briggs I was taken by the power that savoring a simple cup…
Here it is, the first Friday favorites of sweet, sweet summertime. Few things say summer like watermelon. I got a jump on the season with watermelon themed fingernails. As always, this design was hand painted by Meghan at Color My Nails. And, of course, summer means weekends at Hawkes Landing, complete with little furry visitors….
Here is my week in review in a picture-a-day format, except for the one day I shockingly did not take a single photo. Anyway, for the rest of the week… Saturday I came home after Saturday’s 10K to this sweet note from our youngest grandchild. It was hidden under my notebook, so I would be…
It’s time for Friday Favorites, and I’ve spent a lot of time outdoors this week, which makes me a happy woman. Kudos to Mother Nature! I also have the winner of the getting-to-know-you drawing to announce and my final week of 10k training, so let’s get started. You all know by now how much I…
This week was extra special, because my sweet mother in law turned 90 years old, and we had a party to celebrate. But first… I started the week with this beautiful Strawberry Blue Salad and chicken tortilla soup from Wingers. Followed by another great weekend at Hawkes Landing enjoying these spectacular views. This week also…
This week was fantastic from start to finish. Starting with my beautiful nails by Meghan (Tiramisu and Rose Glitter) and my new book. My sisters and I are reading this book together–an online book club! Saturday was the Girls on the Run 5K Celebration. It was so fantastic, I did a whole blog post about…
Another week of good food, family time, and fickle Mother Nature. These are a few of my favorite things from this week. Starting with the first barbecue of the year. Thanks Larry! Spending Mother’s Day with some of the people I love most. And this lovely gift, hand-painted by my Saira Bear. (How appropriate that…
This Friday Favorites is all about the signs of spring (well mostly about the signs of spring; I might have thrown in some other random stuff that made me smile). Let’s start with the flowers. I just love tulips. They pop up in the most beautiful colors and shapes just when you need them most. And…
