Just a list of a few things that I'm loving this week...for no reason whatsoever, other than fun
Harry Connick, Jr. singing, "We go together, like A Wink and a Smile"...I'm married to someone who fits me like that, and that's also something that I love.
Pinterest - Molly got me hooked on it after she wrote about it on her blog, and now I can't stop finding cute things and ideas. If you're on there, let me know your name and I'll add you as a friend. Yes, it's yet one more way to waste precious time...but on the other hand...lots of good ideas! And seriously, where else would I ever have found this: my new blogging motto...
Another website I got hooked on over the week-end is goodreads. Yes, it could be a time waster, but I've already found a new book to add to my ever growing stack of books - and that makes me do the {happy dance}. Message me if you're on there and want to be friends. Just in case you're wondering, the book I found thanks to my friend Joy (who is responsible for hooking me on goodreads) is, Major Pettigrew's Last Stand by Helen Simonson.

Next on the list this week is Red Letter Words - I simply love her work! Best of all, she's selling some of it through Hallmark and for around $15-19 you can pick up some of her art which has been printed on metal. I gave two of them to my mom for her 70th birthday earlier this year and I've got a couple of the magnets ($1.95/each) on our fridge.
And finally, I am finding myself hooked by freezer meals. I'm not freezer cooking as much as I'm taking the time to chop, slice, dice and individually bag everything when I have free time (as I did earlier this evening) instead of coming home from a long day and feeling overwhelmed at the thought of fixing dinner. So now, on days when I am at work, all I have to do is dump something in the Crockpot before I leave or pull out a pre-assembled meal from the freezer and set the oven temp. I'm hoping this will cut down on our eating out as it's been getting a little bit out of hand the last month or so.
That does it for me. I hope you had fun and possibly found a new favorite thing or two. Have a delightful week and I'll see you on Friday with my Thankfulness List!
Fun post - thanks for sharing your current likes :-)
ReplyDeleteAbout the meals - one thing that really helped me when I was working and Dan was at Moody was the magazine "Quick cooking". They are fast meals to cook, so I used a lot of recipes from that magazine! The crock pot is great, too - just a little prep ahead of time and dinner is DONE when you get home! So nice!
I'm curious about this whole "freezer meals" concept. Is this a trendy thing that I've completely missed??
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to goodreads!!!
{and thanks for the linky love}
