It's been a very long time since I've done a weekly round up post. This time, however I'm going to do things a little different in order to relieve a little bit of the work it takes in putting this kind of post together.
I want to do a weekly post on Sunday's consisting of various articles, crafts, quotes and just things in general that have caught my attention throughout the week and that may inspire and interest you as well. In the past, I've called similar posts to this "Saturday Morning Coffee Cafe" but I've always had a hard time with that title...I never liked the way it flowed. So, this time I'm calling it "Coffee House Sundays" It was important to me to keep the "Coffee House" theme to the post because to me this is the perfect post to read while you enjoy a cup of coffee on a Sunday morning either in your own house or your favorite coffee shop. These newer posts will also be a little different because I'm not including as many photos. Honestly, those always took the longest!
Ok, so now that we have all that out of the way, are you ready to get started? Great, grab your coffee and let's see what's been happening this week!
- My youngest son came home last week with one of those fidget spinners. Yes, it's pretty cool; but the biggest lesson here is just because you invent something cool, doesn't mean you'll be rolling in the money.
- Lately, I've been trying to eat a litle more healthy. I love Peanut Butter (my favorite is Skippy Natural) and bonus it can help with weight loss!
- We found out this week that Prince Philip is retiring from public life at the end of this year. The dude is 96 years old, I think he's most definitely earned his retirement, yes? Not unexpected at all; but did you know that he and his beautiful bride (that would be the Queen) are actually related?!
- Not to be overly dramatic; but for goodness sake don't ignore a painful headache!
- Coke wants to help you poop--yes you read that correctly!
- I love a good Gin and Tonic. It's a great cocktail for a lazy summer day. However, this 154 proof gin might be a litle more than I could handle!
- Truth be told I was always team Jennifer when it came to pick a side with Brad, Angelina and Jennifer triangle. Sad for the kids involved that Brangelina fell apart, however; but hey it looks like Brad has quit alcohol...thank goodness we're spared that rehab story!
- I just finished Fredrik Backman's new book "Bear town" You should read it too...
- I intend to make a washi tape bookmark as part of my gift package for my son's teacher for teacher appreciation week. What are you doing?
- I buy those variety packs of chips for my kids lunches. However, no one ever wants to eat the plain potato chips. What to do with them? Make chicken of course!
- Remember when everyone was doing the Ice-bucket challenge to support ALS? Good news, there's a new FDA approved drug to help treat the disease thanks research funded by those donations.
- 82 of the 216 Chibok girls were released by Boko Haram. Little victories
- Norbert the therapy dog made my heart melt a little...it's ok if yours did as well.
I hope your Sunday is great!
