What I'm Reading This Week #34
Hello you sassy beast! Ready for another flip flappin' fantastic weekend? Yes indeedy, Ally Sheedy. It's been a week of working ahead for me as I try to work on ideas for holiday posts. I know, no one is ready for Christmas but spit balling stuff is actually getting me excited for the season. I like to try to give myself the month of December off from writing new posts (except updating weekly happenings) so all I have to do is respond if needed. It lets me take a little mental break during the holidays to try to enjoy what I can then hop back into the new year hopefully rested and ready to roll. We did book our 30th anniversary trip, which is the same one we had to cancel this year and of course got travel insurance. It's just nice to have something to hopefully look forward to and it makes you go "where the heck did 4 1/2 years go?" because it seems like just yesterday we were celebrating our 25th. Do people even celebrate their 30t...
I have the cuisinart ice cream maker, and it is fabulous. It also makes amazing frozen adult beverages
ReplyDeleteI too am in love with the Cuisinart ice cream maker. It just looks so easy, although evidently it doesn't make a huge quantity at once, like the conventional ice cream maker does. But it's so much less work, no ice, no salt. I WANT one. I tried one to win one on Ree Drummond's (Pioneer Woman) blog the other day, but since she gets about 20,000 entrants every time she has a give-away, so my chances were slim. So, like you, when this rock salt is gone, I'm buying one. They're not terribly expensive, as I recall. (I looked it up on Amazon, my favorite spot to find anything and everything.) I also love the sconces that are rustic looking. Do you think you could hang them on an outside wall? From this picture, it looks like they are hanging outside. The chip & dip thing on the umbrella holder would not work at my house--we had an umbrella for our outdoor table, but the wind is so horrendous out here it didn't last long. I know the chips would just blow all over too, right before the wind would take the umbrella to who knows where. But it would be cool if you live in town and don't have to deal with the harsh Prairie Wind here in Nebraska. Thanks for sharing your crushes. Personally, there's nothing I have to add to this list (other than the Cuisinart machine!) I'm just hoping my kids don't totally forget Mother's Day on Sunday and figure out something I might like.....with boys, you never know!
ReplyDeleteMy current two crushes are brightly colored mesh desk accessories and Bath and Body Works Black Cherry Merlot Hand Cream and antibacterial "pocket pac". Love, love, love the scent when it came out a couple of years ago.
