Sunday Somethings

Hello, Sunday.

The busy life continues and the overwhelm of it all caused me to put on Bridget Jones’ Diary last night for some sanctuary. I think it’s the stress of so much impending travel, plus some home-project disarray that is making my head spin. I’ve decided that this week I’m going to protect my peace as much as possible so that I can head to Alaska with the attitude of Excelsior! that it deserves.

We’re into fall, and I’ve already bought my first jig of cider and made my first loaf of apple bread. Are you there yet?

The news was somewhat of background noise this week as I lived and breathed the U.S. Open. And what a win last night! Anyway, here’s what else made my brainlines.

What is middle age? As a 40-something, is this a category into which I fall? Turns out it’s more of a mindset than an actual number.  Which makes sense because age in general in a mindset, IMO.

Snacking seems to be the new dinner? In any case, if you’re following this trend, here are some that will up your game.

Speaking of game, it’s football season and here are a few of my game day faves.

A hurricane-proof town?

Last week Joy the Baker talked about how, at 42 (same as me), she was considered lasers for her skin. I told her, and she responded, that we have thus far been hoping that the magic potions that are serums can keep us from going for the lasers for a while. Do they work? Here’s the dish on hyaluronic acid.

Why do we work 8 hour days again? A history.

Finland just keeps climbing no my hit list lately. First this, now ham.

Ugh, why can’t we just all settle back on cable?

That’s all- have a great week!
