Our four-day staycation has been fanflippin'tastic. We've been out and about but today, day four, we're hoping for big fat raindrops or a wicked snowstorm.
Check out my new books. One used, one with a coupon. Both good deals. I love Jacques Pépin. Each time I watch his show (which is always), I learn something new. These books are companions to his show.
I'm like a big fat sponge, soaking it all in.
So today I'm plopping my butt in The Lemon Tart Room with my Pépin books. With any luck, I'll do so during a nice big storm and a good cuppa something warm.
Thanks to all you Boogerbutts for keeping up on my blog even though I haven't visited Bloggerville in what feels like forever. Planning on catching up next week.
Until then, cheers and boogie boogie.
Ivy, where on earth do you live that you might see snow? We've gotten rain here this weekend, but snow is out of the question when it's in the eighties and humid as hell.
ReplyDeleteNot excited for snow?
DeleteSounds like you're definitely going to have a lovely day! It looks like rain here and even though it's a bit hot and humid, I think I might have to have some hot chocolate! Love watching Mr. Pepin's show as well!
ReplyDeleteHe is brilliant. The best. Glad you enjoy him as well.
DeleteRain here - I was hoping for some sun on my one day off but it doesn't look like I'll be getting any *sigh* Glad you're enjoying your staycation :)
ReplyDeleteSorry you didn't get sun on your one day off.
DeleteSnow? It's flippin' 100 degrees down here in Texas! If only you could send some of that precipitation our way...
ReplyDeleteWe didn't even get rain. Some over night, but that's okay. It's been a killer four-day autumn-like staycation.
DeleteI've never been to Texas, but I hear it's HOT!
Snow ? you must be kidding !
ReplyDeletecheers, parsnip
I am kidding. Though I'd be happy with a big fat snow storm.
DeleteSnow would be a gloriously wonderful thing!
ReplyDeleteI agree.
DeleteAh, so you're a sponge in a GOOD way!
ReplyDeleteBest way to learn.
DeleteCheers and boogie boogie to you too.
ReplyDeleteSame to you, Wendy.
DeleteSounds like a great time, Wonder Woman! Our staycation is now officially over. It's been a great time, although a few days this week the weather was awful. But we made the best of it. At least today was nice and we spent it biking. Now it's time to call it a day, watch a little TV before bed, and munch on some popcorn. 'Nite 'nite!
ReplyDeleteVery cool that on your last day, you got to go for bike rides. Neato stuff. Sounds like you guys really took advantage of your time off together, and that is a wonderful thing.
DeleteOur four-day staycation is over too, but boy, was it ever nice. Very autumn-like summer we've had here. LOVE IT.
i love jacques! listen, we understand life can get busy, or sometimes ya just need a damn break. whatever the reasons, i empathize and sympathize. no need to rush. get around when ya can.
ReplyDeletep.s. cheers!!
ReplyDeleteCheers to you as well.
DeleteMy computer got killed last week so I'm on for a limited time now. Hope all is well with you and thanks for stopping by.
PS: You can still reach me through email.
I love sinking into a new book. It is like nothing else exists. So much fun. I am sure you are learning lots! :)
ReplyDeleteHi Jen: These books are the companion for his shows. So many of them I already have seen, but now instead of taking notes, I have the books.
