Return Visit

It had been a long time, and yet it seemed like much remained the same. Other factors definitely felt new and not necessarily in a positive way.

Not according to plan

It started out on track and then skidded sideways. It made me draw deep a deep breath and realize that sometimes things don’t go according to plan. I wasn’t going to blog about it but was encouraged to share the mishap.

Thankful for Cranberries

This is a true story about my Nanna and my cranberrry chutney. Not together but the threads tie it up like a trussed turkey.

#WOYP “Sea” food edition

We did the “sea” food and eat it tour of Prince Edward Island. Not a bad choice on thoe menus.

#Sundaystills S’More Summer

I’m going to go for the trifecta of challenges here. The stars aligned up or the maybe it was a shooting star that bolstered productivity?

First up it’s summer. I am totally in denial that it’s only vaguely twilight at 4 am. Dusk doesn’t allow as much task or walk time as I wish but I am pretending it’s only because we eat supper so late. Which lead me to the first and second challenges. What’s on your plate in the summer?

This & That

I’ve been “off the wagon” so to speak in blogging. Honestly I am not sure why but we shall see if the thoughts and words can flow. It truly will  be some of this and that. Remains to be seen if I can tie it all together at the end.

An Apple a day…

I ate an apple today. It was cold, crisp and slightly sweet. Not at all like the apples of my childhood lunch box where they were warm and soft. The number of times I carried the same apple to and from school is probably fairly high. A work conversation from two school lunch packing dad’s let me know that this sort of thing is still going on. But back to my apple.

#Sundaystills meets the 12 Festive BonBon’s

For several years I posted daily in December. My friend and I do an Kindness Advent Calendar and the posts tied into the activities. It was, I felt at the time, a chance to connect with readers and encourage them to see the season in a Kindness frame. It was fairly taxing pulling together a post every day along with the activities so this year I am switching things up. I am still committed to the Kindness Advent Calendar but I am attempting a multi blog challenge here with this one post that will cover “all bases”.

Who Knew?

It won accolades from the young lass. It had, after all, been her idea and strangely enough not something I would ever have thought of. So it’s not surprising that she uttered the following sentence.

“Cacciatore”

He zigged and then, at the last second, he zagged. That was his undoing. Like literally.

Ok – full disclosure up front. Don’t read any further if you have a squeamish stomach because it’s a bit graphic from here on in. Don’t make me say I told you so at the end!
