Sunday Happy!

HEY HEY HEY!! HAPPY SUNDAY!!!

So what do you guys think of the new site? For reals, I would love to know cause I spent a shit ton of time making it and it would be nice to know if you like of hate it or if there is some weird wonky thing going on that I have not noticed. The sight itself has pretty much the same content as the old one, but is a little cleaner and easier to get to. (I think) And yes, I am still fin tuning so there might be a slight little change here or there over the next few weeks, but other then that….. WOO HOO!!!!

So apart from spending my week rebuilding this site,(I think I might have spent 20 hours on changing around fonts alone) the mister and I have been super busy busy with the rest of our life, a.k.a. crazy June apartment turnovers. Toilets, trash, painting, cleaning… You know, fun landlord stuff. Its been hectic, as usual, but we got it done.. And on top of that stuff,  we had a little or two at least 5 different times this week, so needless to say, we are some freaking tired party people here and today this very sunday, we are going to take a break. I see a river, a picnic, and a book in my future., followed by naping and the drinking of lots of coffee.

Note to anyone with wants or needs from us today….Leave us alone! (hehe, not really, but really)

In the meantime, here are a few little bits from the internet I liked this week.

-I am all about this! Trader Joe's Ex-President Opens Store With Aging Food And Cheap Meals 

-If you have a dog...At Vermont's Dog Mountain, Comfort And Community For Pet Lovers 

-Glamorous Gold Kitchen Cabinets & Islands  I am not sure, but I think I really love it, although would never want it in my own house.

-Another lovely home I could get down with  

-This Guy Crochets Hilarious Food Hats And Wears Them Himself. Need I say more?

-I love this song. All the instruments. Awesome.  Ben Folds And yMusic, 'Capable Of Anything'

And some eye candy from recent park, garden and bike ride adventures.

A little credit to my little sister Barb, for snatching my camera and taking a few of these badass pictures (which ones, we are still disputing)

Have the best day!!!

Sunday bits

Hey there party people…It's Sunday! Hopefully you all have some good plans for the day. Me, well I  have a peanut butter and jelly lunch date at the park with some littles, a butt load of plants to stick into the ground, and hopefully drinking much to much coffee while basking in the glow of the very lovely world. (which has been on point all week with warm weather, sunny days, splashed with the perfect  moments of rain) Everything is so green and lush and freshy, it's hard to not to be full of happy and the feeling that anything is possible. It's fantastical! Oh, and I got to give a shout out to my big sister for graduating from nursing school this week…Whoa HOO!!!!! (Does she realize she is from a family of hypochondriacs?  Texting nurse Shannon…...she is screwed.)

Summer here we come...It's GO TIME!

Sunday Happy Bits

I don't know about you guys, but I am JUMPING FOR JOY… cause its finally SPRING!!!!!!! I was really starting to doubt that it ever going to happen.  So now that it is actually warm enough to be outside, what are your plans today? Are you going to spend it outside? Or at the very least, in a light filled house with all the windows an doors open? I hope so, cause I think everyone needs to take the day to finally de-thaw and get out of the winter funk that we, or at least me, having been living in for that past 2 months. 

My Sunday list of things to do.

• Wash the cat..and finally let him run free
• Pick up all the trash that has been blowing  up my driveway
• Make bread
• Put air in bike tires…. Go for a bike ride
• Return and withdrawal a few books from library
• Clean off the outdoor tables and chairs and eat meals OUTSIDE!!!

So yeah, do a few somewhat productive things, but mostly just enjoy this shit out of this day!

And here is some internet stuff from the week that might be of interest to you.

-Hold The Mammal: Daring To Make Dairy-Free Cheese From Nuts. I am into this. 

-Hell YES!!!! Golden Girl Legos… What's the hold up?

-Did you know about this? National Park Week!!! And if you can't make it this time, I am pretty sure that there is a noter free week later in the season.

-Hey, if a a coloring book is what you need to get creative, this one looks pretty cool.  Fantastic Cities is an architecture-themed coloring book for adults  

-Being a Vermonter and a fan of stupid sick humor, the first movie was everything and more a stoned kid for ask for. For Fans Of 'Super Troopers,' Meow They're Getting A Sequel….

-I was very happy to hear about this. Lunch, Not Landfill: Nonprofit Rescues Produce Rejected At U.S. Border. I have experienced having all my fresh produce confiscated at the border. I was so pissed and the food the guy took was my lunch  and dinner. I was starving and angry. (Not a good combination on me) So at least now that food can be put to good use.

-This is almost exactly what the mister had been wanting to o for a few years now(before it was cool)..BEFORE & AFTER: 1971 SHASTA CAMPER MAKEOVER

And a few pics from the week. 

Oh little little. I picked him up from school and all he wanted to do was cut out paper snowflakes. It then proceeded to snow 3 inches … I blamed him. Snow covered world. I admit, very pretty, but I am hopping that this was it, that I won't see snow again unlit November.A day with blue skies and amazing cloudsThe most perfect little and the trash dog. These two spent a good hour fighting over sticks. It was fantastic. 

And this salad. I have been eating it all week long. Pineapple and dill… So freaking good. 

Have the best Spring filled Sunday!
