One Day…

One of these days I’d love to write in this exact spot. That’s assuming, of course, that the dinner-plate sized bullfrogs in that pond would stay far away…

Ahhh…

On The Tube

Confession time!

Is there a reality show that you have a particular fondness for? What and why?

I have two.

Survivor–I’ve watched every season since the beginning. I like watching the various personalities (good character studies, I guess).

Fixer Upper–LOVE LOVE LOVE that show. Something about watching them transform something old and tired into something to be proud of just gets me all excited.

Your turn…

My Inquiring Mind Wants To Know…

Today’s Reading Tuesday post is about questions. For all of you…

Have you ever read something you didn’t have high hopes for, but ended up really liking it? If so, what? Morning or night reader? Can you read in the car (while someone else is driving, of course

A Weekend in Pictures

I did some fun stuff this weekend and actually made a point of recording some of it with my camera). I made sure to take some pictures that will end up in family albums, and a few just because they caught my eyes and would be fun to share with all of you.

On Friday evening, DD # 1 took me into the city for my Mother’s Day present. We had a picnic dinner in Bryant Park, saw the show Tuck Everlasting (which was F-A-N-T-A-S-T-I-C), and had cookies at a place called Schmakarys. While we were sitt...

Time For Bits

Bits time!

What one word do you think describes you best? If you were invisible, where would you go? What’s the kindest thing anyone has ever done for you? What traits inothers are you attracted to?

Have a great weekend, everyone! See you Monday.

The Summer List

For today’s writing post, I decided to write a list of 10 things I’d like to do this summer…

Spend a day in the city doing all the things I love to do there (preferably in June before it gets too hot and the tourists start flocking). Make a day trip to the beach. Check out Mystic Seaport. I remember being there as a kid, but don’t really remember anything about it. Have a picnic (on a blanket) with all the traditional trimmings. Have a “just because” party. Pick a town on a map (within an ho...

Just One More Whiff, Please

I thought I’d share five ofmy favorite smells (and why)…

#1. Lilacs (I love how they seep in through the vents in the car when I drive by).

#2.Sunscreen–specifically Water Babies brand (brings back memories of my kids when they were little).

#3. Chocolate chip cookies baking (because, really,how can you not?).

#4. An eraser right after you’ve erased something really hard (I spent entirely too much time in grade school doing this).

#5. Bacon frying in a pan (makes me hungry even if I’m...

With Fresh Eyes

I’ve got a reading-related question for you today…

Part 1: Name a book you wish you could read again for the first time?

Part 2: If you first read this bookas a child/youth…do you think reading it for the first time now (as an adult) would chance how you view it?

Your Go-To

It’s Monday. After a very busy weekend (after a very busy few week).

Question. When you need to pick yourself up, what is your go-to pick-up of choice? Is there somewhere you like to go? Something you like to do?

Tell us.
