Talking About it Tuesdays #83

Happy Tuesday! It's time for another Talking About it Tuesday party. I hope you have had a fabulous week and weekend since we last "talked." I sure did. Our weather has been beautiful and we enjoyed a day at the botanical gardens, a lovely kayak ride, a very informative college tour, and lots of time spent outdoors. I don't know what we'll do this week but I sure hope it will be fun too. 

Now onto our party. We had so many wonderful posts submitted last week and it's always the best (and yet most difficult) to pick a few to feature and share. I see so many fun fall themed posts starting already and it's making me just a tiny bit excited for all things pumpkin and cozy and golden. But I still want to soak up these days of summer for as long as they'll last. 


 
The link with the most views from last week's party:
 
What's Up Wednesdays by Wisdom and Wrinkles
 

A few that caught my eye:

 

Glazed Orange Bundt Cake by Recipes Simple 
 

The Easiest Way to Make a Pillow Cover by Exquisitely Unremarkable  
 

 

This party will remain open until the weekend.  My hope is that everyone will share all sorts of wonderful posts: travel, recipes, how to's, crafting ideas, and more-- up to 3 posts per blog.  Anything that is family friendly is welcome; even old posts that you'd like to get some new views.

You are invited to the Inlinkz link party!

    It sounds like you're enjoying everything summer! I feel like we are, too, but it's hard when schools- college or otherwise start back up and schedules change. Thanks for the link up!

Favorite TV Shows Growing Up in the 80's and early 90's

Image
Do you remember the TGIF lineups on Friday nights? I can remember planning sleepovers and time with friends around TV Show lineups of our favorite shows... or else trying to set the VCR to record our favorite shows if we weren't going to be home. And through the years I had SO MANY favorites! Growing pains aired in 1985 which put me around age 8 and it stayed on the air until I was 15 or so; I'm pretty sure most people in my age group watched mostly for Kirk Cameron and all his antics.  I still have a soft spot for family sit-coms!  The Facts of Life aired when I was just 2  and stayed on the air until I was 11 so I'm sure the episodes I remember so fondly were either some of the later ones and then reruns shown later on when I was old enough to watch from the beginning. I think everyone would have loved an Edna Garret in their lives.   Benson another sitcom that began airing when I was just 2 and was done by the time I was 9 (another one I must have watched mai...

10 Most Popular Posts of All Time

Image
Each year near the end of December/ beginning of January I share the top 10 posts of the year but this year, in particular, I have noticed some much older posts that are still bringing in lots of pageviews and thought it would be fun to look back and see a top 10 list of all time.  I started my blog in June of 2012 and while so many of my first posts were long blocky, chunky rambles without any real photos of us and our family I just can't bring myself to delete any of them as I really do enjoy looking back and seeing how my blog has change and grown over time. Not surprisingly all my top 10 posts are from more recent years.  I love to look at what is popular and try to figure out WHY each post is so popular. Most of the time I can't but I love to speculate anyway.  10. Our 2022 Disney/Universal Trip Day 1 & 2 has almost 2000 views. Who doesn't love Disney and the Magic Kingdom? 😊 9. My Would You rather; Fall Edition had well over 3,000 pageview. I do, however, thi...

Share Your Shelf #16 & What I Read in July

Image
It's the first Thursday of the month and time for Share Your Shelf with  Marilyn,   Jennifer,   Tanya,  and I. This post and link up are dedicated solely to books and book reviews and it's one I look so forward to each and every month. I am always looking for new and more book ideas. I had another great month with a very eclectic variety of books where I'd be hard pressed to pick a favorite! I read/listened to 12 books and was rather proud of myself that I managed to finish ALL the books I had checked out from our library before they were due back. That doesn't always happen and I had quite a large stack that I never thought I'd make my way through. Of course despite promising myself I'd read the ones I have waiting at home I did find 1 or 2 others to pick up when I dropped the stack of books off but I've still managed to read a few of my own. Have you read anything really great lately? 1. Say You'll Remember Me by Abyy Jimenez--  This was such a sweet ...

100 Days of Science #68-- Index Card Tower

Image
My boys did such a wonderful job with their spaghetti bridges and popsicle stick bridges that I decided to look up some other fun STEM challenges.  I found a fun index card challenge that I thought they might like.  I handed each of them a package of index cards from the dollar store and asked them to build the tallest tower they could just using index cards.   Evan struggled quite a bit at first not thinking about folding the cards in any way but once we saw what his older brother's were doing he hatched a new plan.  Every now and then they'd stop to measure their towers.. being very careful not to knock them over. Ian build his tower on our coffee table making sure to use a nice wide base. Ian's tower was the tallest by just a few inches and Evan had the shortest. This challenge really got them thinking about structural integrity and they had to be real careful of how they moved about too. ...

It's the first Wednesday of the month and time for the Currently link up with Jenn. This month we're talking about what we're currently loving, looking forward to, scheduling, buying, and gearing up for.   I really struggled with these prompts this month!  Loving:   Flirty/playful texts with my husband, a fun date night we had this past weekend.    Heading out with friends to see Back to the 80's-- it was such a fun soundtrack!  My mom, Alec and I spent most of the day Monday shopping and went out to lunch together. It was a fabulous day with lots of laughs.  we ALL got fruit flavored iced teas Looking forward to:   These views! (photos courtesy of Pixabay)   Scheduling:  We scheduled 2 more college tours this month for Evan. We'll be checking out Bryant College and Dean college.   I went to Bryant University for a week long yearbook camp when I was a junior in high school.   And my mom is nearly 99% sure t...
