Oh my goodness, here it is 10:26pm and I suddenly realized it’s Friday! I was so caught up in today’s task of priming six doors and their trim in our basement that it completely slipped my mind!
Or…maybe it’s the fact that I’m not in a normal routine…
Or…maybe it’s that I’m turning 39 in two weeks and things like that just start to happen as you get older. I HAVE been noticing changes since I hit my late 30’s… (I’ll just leave it at that. 🙂 )
Anyway…
The photo you see here is at Joy Morin’s Retreat at Piano Manor that was held last week. As always, it was a lot of fun feeding and getting to know all these beautiful ladies.
Everyone is always asking for the recipes I use, so I put a list together for attendees. I thought you might also enjoy getting the links as well so let’s kick off this week’s finds with some winning recipes!
1
This isn’t a list of everything we ate, but just those that I used a recipe for. 🙂
Whole 30 Slow Cooker Pork Carnitas
Mexican Restaurant-Style Cauliflower Rice
Easy Fruit Salad with Orange Poppy Seed Dressing
Gooey Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies [Chickpea Cookies-Gluten Free]
5-Ingredient Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies [These were from the 2018 Retreat. Several of the ladies who were there last year remembered these and were asking for the recipe. 🙂 ]

I really enjoyed reading this “Day in the Life” photo journal post from an Ex-Pat living in Barcelona. At the end of the post she talks about upgrading her Kindle Paperwhite to the “All-New Kindle.”
Does anyone have this and recommend the upgrade?

I need your vote…I try to avoid being a “gadget” person, but this Avocado Tool looks really cool. What do you think? Should I try it?
Do you happen to have one? If so, let me know what you think!

Did you see my announcement from earlier this week?
The goal is to open shop THIS WEEK. We’re also painting the new studio, getting carpet, and moving the studio.
So…if you could do me a BIG favor and send some extra energy my way so I can wrap this project up and get you some Music Lab materials, I appreciate it!
Talk soon! ~Amy
