Fun in a Heat Wave

Posted on August 31, 2010 by crystal

Hang on, Kids!

Crystal can’t complain about the heat too much longer.

Can she??? 😉

Actually, it’s the drone of the air conditioner that’s getting to me at the moment. (I do know I am lucky to have an a/c!)

Anyway, we’re in the middle of a 4-day span of temperatures in the 90’s here, and I think I’ll make up a “new” old-saying. 😉

“When the going gets hot …. the hot try to distract themselves – maybe with something cute and funny?”

Fall is in the Air

Here in New England, the last couple of days have been just “drismal” – a word our weather guy loves to use. 😉

You know what he means though. It’s damp and dreary with constant light drizzle. Last night, we actually needed a blanket for the first time in weeks. Fall is definitely in the air, Kids!

Today’s post features some positive things to think about as summer winds down and autumn approaches . . .

Smiles and hugs!

Back to School

I’ve been seeing the big yellow buses doing their practice runs – which can only mean the first day of school is near.

Actually, in a recent comment Kelly mentioned that her fall semester would begin this week. Fingers crossed she gets some great professors with a talent for making their subjects interesting! 🙂

To tie in with the school theme, I have post about a time I got in trouble at school, when I was a kid.

I KNOW!!! Can you imagine that?!? LOL 😉

It’s still a little hot for baking, but today I have a recipe that’s an old favorite in our family. You might want to have it handy for that first cool autumn day!

Oh! The recipe is written on a historical piece of paper. 😉

Friday Favorites

Posted on August 13, 2010 by crystal

I’ve just realized that I haven’t been repeating any of the older “Friday Favorites” posts, so I chose one for today. 🙂

But, before I mention the link, I’d like to take this chance to thank you all so much for sticking with me through these summer weeks.

I know you have other things going on and I really appreciate that you make time to visit here.

Have an absolutely lovely weekend, Kids!
