The weather is supposed to be rainy today, but I am going to pretend it's summery and warm.....
First let's start with a good read..
Which reminds me.. I am looking for some good summer books.. so if you have a good one.. I love chicklit,decorating, and trashy romance.
I was going to stay in and pick the stickers off the back of the chair that my 2 year old decorated with; But that's not fun.
But instead, let's make a cup of tea, and eat COOKIES!
I like it the good old fashioned English way with evaporated milk..and LOTs of sugar.. I call it my doughnut in a cup.
mmmm.. now, let's go sit on a lawn chair and watch the kids play....
And pick dandelions.

ReplyDeleteAh - summer reading....I can't wait. :)
ReplyDeleteWe all need to stop what we're doing and smell the flowers more often, don't we?
ReplyDeleteHave you read my chicklit novel Shuffle on-line at http://thetexasshuffle.blogspot.com/? It's free!

My "little ones" drove themselves to school and they don't play with stickers anymore...so all I CAN DO is enjoy a tea and cookies!!!! Thanks for the idea!!!
ReplyDeleteI'll be right over to join you for tea and cookies!

Lemon cookies? Yeah, I'll come spend a summery day with you! :)
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a wonderful way to spend the day! Have you ever read the Outlander Series by Diana Gabaldon? They are great! You need to start with the first one and work your way through them.

p.s. yes, my house is usually that clean - but my kids are all grown and have families of their own. I remember when all 4 boys were growing up - you couldn't walk on the kitchen floor without your shoes sticking to spilt kool aid. :-)
Sounds like my kind of day! It's rainy here too though, so I'm puttering around the house. Making it pretty ;-)
ReplyDeleteSweet dandelions - sweet little children! I'm reading One Day At A Time by Danielle Steele - pretty good, but no Eat, Pray, Love (you HAVE read that one, right)!
ReplyDeletePlease stop by for a quick visit. I'm new, and need lots of friends, comments & followers!
Be blessed!
If highly recommend Jan Karon's series of books called The Mitford Series. When you read them you'll feel like you're on vacation.
ReplyDeleteYou are a girl after my heart....Barb
ReplyDeleteWAY more fun than picking off stickers!
ReplyDeleteMmm~your tea sounds delicious!
ReplyDeleteOh my heart ...evaporated milk...that is a hoot. Hope you enjoyed your break because I know you will be right back at it :)
ReplyDeleteJanet
I would join you in a heartbeat with a break like that! Enjoy...
ReplyDeleteThose cookies look really good. Have you read any of Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum books? They are light reading but hilarious.
ReplyDeleteI finally gave in and read the Twilight series since all my high school (female) students told me I needed to. I'm on the last book now and it's quite the saga but I see why people are so drawn in. I also read a book called Girls in Trucks (author's last name is Crouch) and it was a quick read and pretty good.
ReplyDeleteHave you read "I Was Told There Would be Cake"? Funny, short, mostly autobiographical stories by a twenty-something New Yorker. Cute, and quick reads! I like short stories because you can put them down and pick them up without really missing anything.
