Share 4 Somethings in March 2026

Image
Tomorrow is the last Saturday of the month and time for Share 4 Somethings with Jenn. This year we're sharing something we loved, something that sustained us, something we're carrying forward, and something we're making space for each month.   Something I loved:  My husband and I had a really fabulous and delicious date night this month. We went to D' Avios Italian Steakhouse and Cupcake Charlie's.  a cupcake whirlie; they swirl a cupcake into soft served ice cream Alec and I LOVED Wicked! We actually had a really fabulous night with delicious pizza beforehand at a place that was voted Providence's Best Pizza (and we agreed!).     We loved our time at Clark university's accepted student day-- and the delicious lunch we had at the nearby Peppercorn's restaurant. Something that sustained me:  Our generator was sustaining us through a short 2-day power outage. Living out in the country without power we also don't have water since our well pump can...

Monthly Musings in March 2026

Image
 It's the last Thursday of the month and time for Monthly Musings with Patty . This month we're all about spring holidays and fun.   1. Does it feel like spring yet where you are?   Definitely not! We had a wintry mix of snow/rain/sleet on Monday with highs in the 30's, some sun and highs in the 40's on Tuesday, yesterday and today brought more rain and some slightly warmer temps in the 50's & 60's but without the sun it still feels rather cold and raw. Friday- Sunday is only supposed to get into the 40's.  But... pretty much all the snow is gone/melted so that's a plus! Other than this photo showing no snow all the other photos in this post are from past springs... since we just established it's not spring yet here.  2. What spring holidays do you celebrate? Mother's day is pretty much the only spring holiday we celebrate.  3. Any spring trips planned? Yep! All of our trips for this year are taking place in spring so I have 3 of them planned...

What's Up Wednesday: March 2026

Image
Can you believe it's the last Wednesday of the month and time to link up with Shay and Sheaffer for What's Up Wednesday?  I feel like this month flew by. We have had a great month with just a hint of spring here and there. What We're Eating: Sunday:   My 3 meat sauce with spaghetti, garlic bread, and salad.   Monday: Homemade shepherd's pie with salad Tuesday:  Baked ham, egg noodles, corn & salad Wednesday: Chicken Caesar salad wraps with fries and salad Thursday:  Turkey stuffed peppers w/salad Friday:  Steak & Shrimp stir-fry over rice What I'm Reminiscing About:  We went to Evan's accepted student day and it's just baffling to me that this little guy, my youngest, is heading off to college in the fall.    What I'm Loving:  Wicked was SOO good! Alec and I had a lovely night in Providence and enjoyed seeing the musical together.      What We've Been Up To:  Our month started out with lots of snow so we...
