Howdy folks!
What was the best part of your week? Hope there was lots to choose from! Here are some of my favorites from this past week!
1. Deep fried goodness
Everything is better fried, right? OH YEAH.
Visiting my Dad and Step-Mom’s cabin in De Soto, Wisconsin is never complete with out a trip to the Great River Roadhouse.
And, being Wisconsin, they have a killer Friday fish fry with plenty of fixin’s. Let’s see, with each entree you get—two huge slices of garlic bread dripping in butter, mostacholi, a side salad, french fries, and cooked to perfection walleye.
And, then you drift off into a wonderful food coma. Goodnight Wisconsin!
2. Tickly toes
When was the last time you went barefoot in the grass?
My default is always to throw some flip flops on if I’m working or playing in my yard, but yesterday was such a gorgeous day that I omitted my my shoes, and felt the soft and tickly grass on my tootsies. I love that kind of connection to the Earth, and the best part — it makes you feel like a kid again!
3. Knowing when to take a break
Right now, blogging is a past time for me, but I also want it to become a part of my career. So, I have been trying my hardest to push myself in this journey as I would if it were my job.
But sometimes, I cannot force creativity and inspiration to come when I want it to. It was hard for me not to write a post yesterday, but it was also good allow myself to take a break. That way, my mind and heart is refreshed!
I encourage you all, in whatever area, to allow yourself a break whenever you need it!
4. Getting my laugh on
I don’t know about you, but I need to laugh— like — genuinely laugh, at minimum 57.8 times a day!
I love the website, BuzzFeed, and the totally random lists they put together. For example, how can you not love this goodie, The 35 Greatest Animal Photo Bombers of All Time? Check it out if you want to end your week with a good ol’ giggle (I love #33!).
And here’s a picture of my Mom and Step-Dad’s dog, Charlie — totally photo bombing me!

Hi Blair, I found you through Liv Lane’s Bliss list.
Glad you wrote “know when to take a break”. I went through a similar process this week – over a (self-imposed) blog post deadline! The post was better for it 🙂
Gosh those photobombing animals had me laughing (and the captions!), how hilarious!
Have a good week,
Love Meg x o
