Memorial Day. It is of course alot of fun to get caught up in all the enjoyable things we think about on this holiday, BBQ's, picnics, big sales, get togethers,etc...but lets not forget the real meaning and who we have to thank for being allowed to have those very freedoms to do all of those wonderful things!
Our brave men and women in uniform, sometimes unsung heroes,.. to me, there is simply no more noble job than the one these brave Americans do. They put their own lives on a daily basis on the line for us to enjoy our liberties and freedoms......every day we should salute the heroic job that they do. It is awe inspiring at the very least. So my hat goes off and utmost respect goes out to all who have served and who continue to serve (and their families).......you make me VERY proud to be an American! THANK YOU for all you do to keep us safe and protected.
How cute is this? Reminds me of Mr. Teddy when he was just a babe.....
Pinterest. I have to admit, I really didn't "get" all the fuss about Pinterest.....all I kept hearing was about how addicted everyone was and how they couldn't stay away. Well, though I am far from being addicted, think the light bulb has finally gone on and I have really started enjoying it, pursuing countless amazing boards and starting to collect wonderful images of my own. It is a fun and novel idea, and such a great way to chronicle and keep organized all you love and get inspiration from. Here are a few recent fave pictures from Pinterest.......
They call this a wedding clutch but I say it would be perfect for anyone anytime. How cute is this beaded monogrammed clutch? Love it!

When it rained all day Sat. I met a friend for a movie and then we went shopping....was supposed to see Renoir but there was a misprint and the time was wrong so we saw The Big Wedding instead. Though the cast was definitely "A list", there was to me, some kind of disconnect in the story...I kept waiting to feel "hooked" but never did, I did however very much enjoy the gorgeous home, dreamy setting, furnishings and all the scrumptious wedding details in the movie. The delicious popcorn made up for a mediocre movie:) Still really really want to see Renoir, here's the trailer.....
How insanely good does this look? I mean seriously, this is as cute as it is delicious with a capital D I am sure! Click on Iowa girl eats to get the low down on how to make it. Love the idea for a big gathering, everyone gets their own little serving, no one has to feel "jipped" because someone got a bigger portion.......
Some of these were recommended to me by friends and other bloggers, and a few I just knew about because I have read books from that author...don't know that I will get through all of them but hopefully at least a few!
And I found this on none other than Pinterest so considering how convenient it is that there's a whole slew of books here to pursue, I am definitely going to look into this extensive list.....
So that's my Memorial Day wrap up. Hope you had an enjoyable, relaxing and safe weekend. Before you know it, it will be July 4th! And then we will get bombarded with back to school supplies and fall clothes preview..........yes life goes by fast! So enjoy it, wishing you a wonderful day and be back tomorrow!
