You are, no doubt, familiar with Chip and Joanna Gaines, but you might not know how they became so popular or how their business exploded. This book, told by both of them, shares their journey from their dating stages to just a few years ago. It’s quite amazing how their path unfolded, with the universe seemingly guiding them every single step of the way. Every time they hit a crossroads, they received clear signs to continue to point them in the right direction. It was interesting to learn more about their story, and a great reminder that you need to trust in yourself and follow your passions, and everything really does just fall into place. Chip has his own book out too, Capital Gaines, which I added to my list after I read this one.

She has settled into a new routine here (ours 😂), and now doesn’t get up until after 9 am, stays up until well past midnight, eats a very late dinner, knows that the kitchen is where the magic happens and sits for a treat after her morning backyard visit. We’ve broken her in nicely but she will be returning with her continued bad habit of suffering from #fomo, playing tag with the cats, and barking every time she hears a door open or sees someone go up the street. We did our best. 😇

Garlic butter and bleu cheese butter from @njgarlic (the bleu on steak! 😍), empanadas from @catalina_empanadas_2017, half sour pickles from @pickleculture and the quiche and bread were from a vendor I forgot to get the name of. This was all from the @bernardsvillefarmersmarket. Today I hit the @denvillemarket and added full sour pickles from @pickle_licious and a roasted garlic and duck fat loaf and cheese biscuit from @bobolinkdairyandbakehouse. Basically give us all the bread, cheese, butter and pickles and we’re happy campers! Did you hit up a farmers market this weekend? What’d ya get?

So freaking good and dinner on the table faster than you can order take out. 🤤

Weekend Dog Blogging Announcement

September 17, 2005 · Narrative

Regular post follows below this entry.

For my fellow bloggers, Clare of Eat Stuff, has graciously allowed me to do a spin-off of her popular Weekend Cat Blogging event, but this one will highlight the dogs … no canine discrimination here! As with WCB, just post about WDB on your own blog, and e-mail me the direct link and I’ll post the round-up. This will be a regular weekend event, so if you don’t make it this weekend, there’s always the next one. Round-ups will be posted late Sunday night. Start snapping your pups at their cutest. I hope my fellow bloggers will join me.

    Oh my. I don’t have a cat or a dog (and no children either). When I get a camera (soon!) I guess I will have to do some closeups of my plants.

    No worries, Kalyn, I’ll let you throw your plants in for good measure. :)

    Dr. Biggles (and everyone else) – this is going to be a regular weekend event, just like Clare’s, so if you don’t make it one weekend, there’s always the next! :)

    Glad the rest of you are going to join in the fun! Round-up will be posted late Sunday night.
