HAPPY HOMEMAKER & MENU PLAN MONDAY week 16 of 2021

Be sure to join us for Happy Homemaker Monday and link up
with our host, Sandra at Diary of a Stay at Home Mom

Hello sweet friends. How was your week/weekend? It rained here and was downright cold on Saturday so we stayed in and watched some racing and a couple of movies, but the Sunday was pretty nice. We took a walk around the pond and even though spring is later than normal, it was pretty cool with the breeze. As long as you keep going though you don’t seem to notice it much!

This week is supposed to be the nicest yet this spring.  Cool mornings, sunny afternoons and just plain pretty. Highs in the 60’s and lows in the 40’s.

I just finished a long tedious trilogy read by Nadia Lee, but I stuck with it and am really glad it is over. I have never NOT finished a book, but I often wish I had 🙁 This was one that took 3 books to tell a story that should have and could be told in 2 and even possibly in one.

I just downloaded SPY MISTRESS by Jennifer Chiaverini, “New York Times bestselling author Jennifer Chiaverini is back with another enthralling historical novel set during the Civil War era, this time inspired by the life of “a true Union woman as true as steel” who risked everything by caring for Union prisoners of war — and stealing Confederate secrets”,  and am looking forward to starting that.  I’ve read her many times in the past with her quilt series and always enjoy her stories.

The DOUBLE PINK Flashpoint tulip plant that we bought my mom for mother’s day has opened beautifully! They are not your typical tulip style as the have more petals. I believe they call it a peony style.

HA HA Don’t be too jealous, today’s sun is glorious and it says it’s 63 degrees today, but there is a super cold WIND, not breeze blowing making it feel like winter again 🙁 I hope you’re having a GREAT week too! 🙂

Sandra

HA HA that doesn’t surprise me, we are so much alike. I’m anxious to move on to the Stargate Atlantis section next 😀 I hope you’re also having a GREAT week 😀

Those tulips are so pretty and they do look a bit like peonies. This year, I’ve let myself not finish books. It’s very freeing. Hope you have a great week!
