My Favourite.....Music Growing Up



My Favorite.. is a weekly meme hosted by Maureen’s Books. In this meme we share every week something we love with each other. Because let’s face it.. The world can be a dark place and it’s time to share something positive. For more info: My Favorite Meme.

 Music is a great passion of mine, I love to listen to it and I enjoy many varied forms.  When I was younger I did not have a lot of exposure to it though, only what my parents listen to as we did not have all these fancy devices that my kids have today.

 I remember having a variety show of sorts in Grade One and we did a cover of this song which was my favourite at the time.  

What was your favourite music growing up?

    I love classic rock. It is by far my favorite music genre. I was introduced to it at a very young age as I shared a room with my older sister. Today is her birthday. She would have been 63, but I lost her to cancer 21 years ago. Her taste in music still influences me to this day.

    I love all sorts of music. I grew up listening to Status Quo so that has a special place in my heart, but then in my teens it was all about Steps, hehe.

    The Beach Boys always equal summer to me.

    Awesome! I mostly listened to the Pop songs on TV and radio in 90's. I had a few CDs but was always out of batteries for my disk-man. I remember back then boy bands were pretty big deal.
    Enjoyed reading your post, bought back nostalgia of growing up :)
    Best Wishes!

    One of my strongest memories of elementary school was our talent show in sixth grade. The guy I had a crush on and three of his friends sang "Elvira." My crush turned out to be gay--I guess my gay-dar wasn't so strong at 12!

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.

M is for Motherhood

This morning on my way to work I read this post from a YMC blogger and it got the wheels turning in my little brain.  First of all, why are people so mean to each other?  And second, the vast number of times I have want to set the  feral little animals  kids who call me mom at the end of the driveway with free to good home signs round their necks. The truth is though, in the moment, when there are a bottle full of snails loose in your apartment and sliming their way over everything while your son sleeps. (no lid, he thought they would stay in on the honor system)  Yes, I wanted to put him and the snails out to sleep in the yard.  After much, much yelling.  But it's a little bit funny no?  I have to admit it, then it wasn't, but now my reaction when I picked up his school bag and discovered it was writhing with snails....freaking hilarious.  The fact that he honestly thought they would stay in the bottle, adorable.  The l...
