Monday Musings, April 8
Why, hello there friends!
I hope this past weekend treated you well and your week is off to a great start!
I was out of town from Tuesday through Saturday last week, so I’m getting my feet back under me. I was at a Blog Conference where I met lots of great bloggers and influencers…I always come home full of ideas and wanting to do all the things all at once. My grandma labeled that syndrome ‘hoodly foodly’ …guilty as charged.
Coincidentally, the conference was in the same town that my baby boy attends college, so I extended my stay a bit and spent some true, quality time with him. I am so proud of the young man he is! And if that wasn’t enough, I was also able to have dinner and reconnect with some friends from our early married years. All in all, a fantastic week!
I had to giggle when Terry had 2 showings while I was gone! He said he was just going to take 4-legged girls and sleep in the car so that he wouldn’t mess the house up!
I listened to a bit of a bizarre podcast on the way home…Alice isn’t Dead. Very Sci Fi…which is not typically my genre…but it kept me entertained for the 4-hour car ride which is all I can ask for.
So, let’s look at some fun finds from the internet:

I met Sheila at the conference last week and we just hit it off! Her site is lovely and I have my eyes on this dessert…you know I am all about the mini desserts!
Love this idea for table place cards or menus!
We are chocolate lovers, so I will definitely be giving this a try. I’m intrigued!

This quote:
“My predominant feeling is one of gratitude. I have loved and been loved. I have been given much and I have given something in return. Above all, I have been a sentient being, a thinking animal, on this beautiful planet, and that in itself has been an enormous privilege and adventure.”
— Oliver Sacks
