GOOD MORNING I hope you had a WONDERFUL Father’s Day weekend full of family and FUN. Ours was quiet and we had brunch out for father’s day at a fun new place (to us) – a restored Victorian home turned restaurant, watched a couple movies and made a few tentative trip plans.
OUTSIDE MY WINDOW & THE WEATHER OUTSIDE & WHAT I’M WEARING This week is looking like it will be GORGEOUS! We’re taking the day to play and run errands in a neighboring town so I’m dressed for comfort in my favorite Levis and a navy flowing blouse with sandals.
ON THE BREAKFAST PLATE was weak coffee and peach yogurt
AS I LOOK AROUND THE HOUSE, WEEKLY TO DO LIST, HOUSE & CRAFT PROJECTS, APPOINTMENTS

- LIVING AREAS… pretty good
- KITCHEN… pretty good
- YARD… pretty good
- BLOG… some more recipe updating and need a plan to get back into daily blogging beyond recipes
- CRAFTS/PROJECTS… I did get the garland supplies down and in arm’s reach, but have yet to start
- APPOINTMENTS… a few Tuesday and Wednesday…
- TO DO… hubby is going to do some repairs to the new gate, paperwork, research
I’M READING I need to start a new book, but have yet to figure out which one!
WHAT IS ON THE DVR, I LIKE OR ON THE LIST TO WATCH We watched a cute and fun Adam Sandler and Jennifer Anniston movie, Murder Mystery , an episode of Dead to Me with Christina Applegate and Linda Cardellini as well as started season 3 of Jessica Jones.

I have a similar recipe but see several different ingredients. Looks and sounds delicious.
Hello beautiful Friend! I’m so sorry this week got away from me and then we were out of town. But i still wanted to come in and say hi. I hope you had a wonderful weekend. And I have to check out the kolaches recipe being a good Polish girl ❤️
I didn’t know you made Malasadas, now I love you even more LOL They are delicious aren’t they?
How is that celery so expensive, what on earth is going on? I think that would put me off celery for a while, or at least until the prices came down a bit lol
Hope you’re having a beautiful week so far 🙂
The Malasadas were soooooo good. I’m so glad I found the recipe and tried them. I will be making them again soon 😀 Fortunately, I use celery so seldom that I can keep a stalk for 4-6 weeks (I wrap it in tine foil and it stays fresh and crisp). Hope you’re having a GREAT week.
Are you liking Dead to Me? I have yet to get through the first episode. Love your inspriation. As always, your food pics leave me drooling! Have a great week!
Ohmygoodness! I LOVE the quote!!! Absolutely wonderful advice!
Wow, Lucy! Celery…$5.00 a stalk? That’s crazy! Why so high?
Blessings to all for a great week ahead! <3
Thank you. I assume that $5 is Lucie’s Canadian price – I haven’t seen it that high here. When I last bought it was about $2.50 here. Have a GREAT week too.
I paid $1.78 for a stalk of it on Sunday. It’s interesting how much prices vary from one part of the country (continent).
It certainly is – whether its celery or gas – such varied pricing! Hope you’re having a GREAT week.
Your food pictures always make me hungry 🙂 Hope you had a great day running errands and have a wonderful week ahead!
I did thank you! I got some GREAT buys for hubby especially and the Apple store was a research success. 😀 Have a GREAT week.
Enjoy your day out. Celery – SOOOO expensive here in the last few months .. $5 for a stalk! no celery-buying these days.
Have a great week.
Thank you. I assume that $5 a Canadian price – I haven’t seen it that high here. When I last bought it was about $2.50 here. Have a GREAT week too.
