Celebrate The Small Things: February 10, 2017



Celebrate the Small Things is hosted by Lexa Cain along with wonderful co- hosts Writing Off The Edge and Kitbits.

Today I am celebrating the temperature not jumping 10 degrees overnight so that I woke up without a headache for the first time this week.  An excellent end to the week.

I am also celebrating FINALLY getting caught up on some off my giant mail pile.  Waking up early without a headache also gave me a chance to get some letters out.  I was starting to feel like the worse pen pal ever.

What are you celebrating?

    I woke up with a headache today as well. I think part of the problem is our humidifier needs a new filter. It's so dry in our house. Then there's the sleep-deprivation thing. Plus, I'm trying to cut back on my sugar intake. My sugar-addicted brain does not like this plan one bit. Please pass the Advil...

    Mail catch-up is a good thing. So is not having headaches! Enjoy the weekend.

    Hope you're feeling better now and well done on getting caught up. I've been writing a letter to a pen pal for over a month now, so you're definitely not the worst! ;-)

    The constant jumps in the temperature are harsh. Here's to feeling better soon!

Making Mac and Cheese

Image
One of my favorite vegetables is butternut squash so when Chatelaine  posted this yummy looking recipe  for mac and cheese brimming with squash I immediately pinned it to make at a later time.  Now, before Pinterest  I am willing to admit, recipes got saved in my e-mail, but they never got made.  They just got lost in the shuffle; now they get neatly organized and displayed where I can go through them on a regular basis.  More importantly than that I can try them.   This recipe worked out well for me, I thought the cheese and squash tasted great together, the kids however did not agree.  They like their squash on the side, where they can control how much they ingest.  Next time I will definitely use less breadcrumbs though.

Spooktacular Giveaway Hop

When I was much younger than I am now, I loved nothing more that a good "spooky" story.  I spent many nights laying up in bed reading books that were designed to make your skin crawl and leave you with goose bumps. My personal favourite author for Young Adult Thrillers was and probably still is Christopher Pike.  Twenty years after reading his books some of them still stand out in my mind in perfect clarity.  The top one would be Remember Me. Something about Shari's story struck a chord with me that has echoed through the last twenty years, as any good book should I suppose. Sadly when I was a teenager I didn't hold on to as many books as I do now so I spend a lot of time hunting to replace the ones I really wish I had kept. (Sweet Valley High anyone?) I am giving away a $15 Amazon gift card in the hopes that you can use it to buy a book to be loved as much as I loved this one. a Rafflecopter giveaway This post is part of The Spooktacular Giveaw...
