I had a nice~relaxing weekend. I unpacked my bag long enough to wash my clothing...and re-pack.  We are off to again...  to visit more family and friends.  My Michigan days are limited. So many places to go and people to hug before heading west this fall. 
How was your weekend? Do you have a Pinterest account? If so, I'd love to visit...

Bubble...Gum

Grab a pack of flavorful gum today...and blow some bubbles.

When's the last time you did that?

Life is too short...be a little silly today.

Simple words

What impact are your words leaving on someone today?

Just the other day my Mom told me a story about my Aunt going out to lunch with a friend. While waiting she casually complimented someone she didn't know.  Before leaving the restaurant the lady (she complimented) came over and thanked her for brightening her day.  

It's such a simple thing to say something nice.

Do you remember the last compliment you received? How about one you gave?

Have a great Friday!

Bon Appetit

H-e-l-l-ooooo

It is in Quebec City where I learned how to experiment in the kitchen. 

I will always treasure those throw-together meals on Rue Marie Rollet when one 

phone call turned into a table full of people, countless bottles of wine and hours of conversation.  

 Some of my favorite meals have been made with some of my favorite people.

 Julia Child started passionately cooking when she was 32 and has reminded us all

we can be who we want to be with some effort....

Happy 100th Birthday Ms. Child.

Bon Appetit!

Non-motorized vehicle of the difficult sorts...

Let me first start off by saying I am not the person in these photos,
but I did learn how to use a paddle board this week.  

 What a blast!

Just when I thought I was "cool" I found out that people (talented and crazy) are doing yoga on them.
I can stand....that's about it.

Have you used a paddle board?  Would you?

On my mind...

 I've got a lot on my mind lately.  If only this is what it looked like.

We are already 7 days into August...my Michigan clock is ticking and I want to slow it down.  

In the next week or so we'll have an idea of where we are moving to and...and...I'm not ready.

That being said, it's been the best summer that I can remember, so I'll stop my whining.

What do you to relieve stress?

Are you watching the Olympics?

While in Lexington we watched a little each evening.  Talk about nail biting. Entertaining.  Inspiring.

  I could become addicted, but we are back at the cottage where there isn't a television and for that I am thankful.  

Well, I guess we could watch a wee bit on the computer.... (wink)

What has been your favorite moment or event so far?
