Friday Favorite Easter Finds


Hello, dear friends.  TGIF!  I hope that you had a good week.  I can't believe that Easter is almost here.  There are so many adorable Easter accessories out there.  The bad news is some of the things may be sold out thanks to my bad timing.  The good news is there is a pretty good chance what is left is probably on sale.

A Lucky hodgepodge

Hello, dear friends.  I stayed up late watching the last of the returns.  All I can say is fasten your seatbelts; it 's going to be a wild ride to November.  

Without controversy, I present to you my favorite Wednesday link.






1.  What do you think about luck?



Denzel and I are on the same page when it comes to luck.



2.  Not counting your own backyard, what's a favorite green space in your town, city, or state?









The first place that comes to mind not so much for its beauty, but for its warm memories is Callahan State Park in Framingham.  Last October, we met Chili's brother, Alan, and his Mom and Dad at this park.   The two seemed to recognize each other immediately.  They had the time of their lives running and playing on the trails.  We are planning on meeting up again soon.



This photo was taken minutes after Chili and Alan were rescued from the streets of Houston.




3.  How do you make your life more complex than it needs to be?






I have the talent of taking any somewhat simple situation and making it more complicated by worrying about the "what ifs."




4.  I read that there are three places you should visit with friends.  They are - New York City, Hawaii, and Amsterdam (rent a bike, walk along a canal, visit one of their world class museums).  I felt the need to expound on that one.  Moving on... of the three places listed which would you most like to visit with friends?  What's one place not on the list you think should be visited with friends?




The one place that I think should be on the list and will be visited by my friends is Boston.  My buddy, Susie B has met the love of her life and there will be a bachelorette party in the bride's honor in Boston next month that will make the wildest of bachelorette parties look like a tea party.  Susie B has five fabulous, fun sistas (and two very handsome brothers) and about a hundred girlfriends who adore her.  Rumor has it that Mayor Walsh is thinking of closing the city for this auspicious event.  You can read about Susie B. here and her visit to the Kennedy Compound here.

If you live in Boston, take my advice and keep your children at home during the third weekend of April.  I am also looking for some volunteers to put up bail money.




5.  What's the last live performance you saw?  On a scale of 1-10 (with 10 being the best) how would you rate it?


I give Love Letters a 10+++.  
You can read my review here. 



6.  March 14th is National Potato Chip Day.  Are you a fan?  Your favorite flavor?  Besides potato, what's your favorite chip type of snack?



My favorite chips are the Sea Salt & Vinegar, any brand. Fortunate for me, the Mister doesn't like them so he never buys them.  Therefore, they are never in the house.





These chips are to me what catnip is to kitties.  I tell the Mister not to buy these things, and yet he does.  I then tell him to hide them from me, and I spend the rest of the day burning calories while looking for them.



7.  What rule is most important in your home?








I'm married to Felix Unger.  
I'll let you guess about the rule.



8.  Insert your own random thought here. 

Bear with me while I bore you with my new short hair dilemma.  As some of you know, I have worn my hair in a ponytail for the past five years.  The reason for that is that am a very lazy busy person.

There are a few things that I have learned from having short hair again.





1.  It takes a village as well as deep pockets to keep short hair looking presentable.







2.  Which brings me to number two.  Do not even think about teasing it to give it more "volume."    









3.  You virtually have to be double jointed to handle all the irons and styling tools that are needed to put together a decent hairstyle.




4. Not only do I have my Fitbit to tell me how I slept at night, but I also have my hair to tell me where I've been.




4. And last, but certainly not least, when you have short hair, the wind is not your friend.



What is the number one rule in your house?


Until next time...

A Tuesday Funny


Hello, dear friends.  We woke up to a very rainy morning.  Our house exudes a unique wet dog aroma. I'm only telling you this because I knew you'd be jealous.

Who watched The Bachelor last night?  I am still wondering how a guy can be in love with two women at once.  I hate to admit it, but I am happy Jojo is going to be the next bachelorette, though.  What can I say... I have no life.







Questions of the Day:

Isn't this little guy the cutest?

and

Why weren't my girls born with British accents?


Until next time...




When dogs and babies collide.
