My Friday Finds . . .

 

 

 A few of the things I find each week that pique my interest and inspire me to want to do, create, become, etc. Maybe they will also inspire you!     

My first one of 2021

And those are my first finds of the week for 2021! Hope there was something fun for you here! 

We had a fairly quiet New Years Eve. We played Yahtzee, ate a few goodies. I was down for the count by 11 I think.  I am so not a party animal anymore. I don't think I ever was! Went to bed, but do you think I could fall asleep? Not a chance. I think it was past 1:30 am before I actually nodded off. Just too much going through my mind I guess!

A thought to carry with you . . .

In the kitchen today. After Eight Brownies. My first recipe for 2021. Its a good one! 

A very Happy New Year to each and every one. I hope and pray that this new year will be much kinder to everyone. Hoping that things will slowly begin to get back to normal, or at the very least a new normal we can all cope with! Be happy. Be blessed, and don't forget!

  2. Happy New Year! I did manage to stay awake to see the New Year but then went promptly to bed. Woke up this morning for a fresh new start ! I'm looking forward to that new normal coming our way! It's sure to be better!

  3. We have gotten into the bad habit of staying up past midnight, so last night was no different...neighbors closeby somewhere were shooting off fireworks for awhile. Lots of cute ideas you shared here, thanks. We are grateful we survived 2020...hopefully this new year will be easier on us all!!
