Foodie Friday

I'm not a huge foodie.  I can't look at a food or take a whif of something and know immediately what would be a good paring but I do know what I like and that's what Friday's (intermittently) are going to be all about.

What I want to share with you this week is my favourite chocolates.  I love all kinds of chocolates but these ones are my weakness, and they were on sale on the weekend.  Enough said.

Check back next Friday for my favourite cookie recipe!

Things Happy People Do Differently

Here's an interesting article to read.  It would take a lot of mental exercise to remember these 15 strategies, while you're out in the world dealing with daily challenges, but sure worth it.  Being happy feels so much better than being unhappy and it makes a difference in every aspect of your life.

Wordless Wednesday

Organized?

One of the reasons I've been so bad at keeping the blog up to date is organization.  I have lots of great ideas but I need to have them planned out or it doesn't happen.

So, I've grabbed a calendar and I'm trying to force myself to write everything down in an effort to stay on top of upcoming events and promotions and to keep the blog and my Facebook page some what regular and interesting.  That's the key point: interesting.  It has be interesting for me too so I want to share what gets my juices flowing with you.

I love to bake (cooking not as much) and I have a few favourite recipes I'd like to share.  I also love to experiment and try new things and so I thought I would add that into the blog as a regular piece...about every two weeks you'll see something food related.  I have decided that I will post this on Fridays so if you're interested in a new yummy recipe, or want to know what not to do, look me up on Fridays.  I don't have a name for this yet.  If you have a suggestion, I'd love to hear it!

I am also interested in trying to live a green life.  I am not fanatic about it but there are some things in our life that we do and that I'd like to do that I think are pretty good (pat on the back) and I'd like to share them with you.  I tried to do that before but I found I was becoming a little too preachy.  I will do my very best to give only the facts this time.  I called it PB+J Mondays for (polar bears and jellyfish).  Look for that on Mondays again.  Probably not every Monday but when I do have something green to share that will be the day.

Another thing I enjoy doing is taking pictures.  I have had no photography training and I'd love to take a class or have the time to teach myself but that isn't always so easy.  So maybe experimenting and sharing it with you here will help me to learn and get better.  Again, it may not be a regular post every week but when I do post a picture it will be on Wednesday for Wordless Wednesdsay.

So that takes care of Monday, Wednesday and Friday for some sort of regularity.  The other days will have promotions that are going on, featured shops and artists I really like (and think you will too), and new items and projects I'm working on.

I hope you'll come back again and keep me company while I share a bit about myself and my life and while I experiment and learn new things!
