I’m still getting caught up on writing my blog posts!  Here we are already beginning the second week of August!  July seemed like a really L-O-N-G month to me.  Probably because I spent most of it being sick.  In spite of that, though, July still had some favorite moments.  And since I never did get my June favorites published, I’m making this a combo post of both June and July.

Gosh, I haven’t done a blog post in forever!  Decided a WUW post would be a good way to jump back in.  However, since I didn’t finish putting it together until today, what I have here is a What’s Up Wednesday post on a Friday!  Ah, well…such is life sometimes.  Here’s how things have been around here lately.

One of these days I’m going to post my monthly favorites on the first of the following month, like I originally planned.  This is obviously not the day that is happening, though, since it’s already the middle of June.  But putting my shortcomings aside, May was a great month, and it just FLEW by!

Yep!  Over half of April is gone already, and I still haven’t posted my March favorites.  Don’t know why I’ve been dragging my feet.  Maybe because I don’t really have that many to highlight.  But since it’s feeling like early March here today, I suppose it’s as good a day as any to publish this post.

“What’s Up Wednesday” is a post hosted by Sheaffer and Shay the last Wednesday of every month.  It’s a fun opportunity to share a little bit about what’s going on with everybody lately.  This is actually only my second time to join in.  I really should try to do it more often.  Read more

We DID it!  We made it through the long winter, and today begins my FAVORITE season of the year!  HELLO, SPRINGTIME!  YAY!

One of the things that helped us through all the cold days was this delicious tomato soup! I used tomatoes from our garden last summer to make batches and batches of it, and I tucked it all away in the freezer.  And now it’s time to plant tomatoes again!  If you are growing tomatoes this spring like we are, then you might want to try this soup for yourself come harvest time.

Here is a little review of the five books I read during the first two months of 2021.  One is actually a beautiful journal, one was okay, one was good, and two were 5-star in my opinion. Read more
