ODDS AND BODS

Pretty art.

This sounds interesting, if nothing else it sounds soothing.


Or this for a good night’s sleep?



How about this? On the rare occasion we used to have an Auntie Anne’s Pretzel at our local mall. The place closed years ago.


Or this.

Another recipe of sorts but not for food. For when you might have food stains on your clothes. I haven’t tried it. I haven’t tried any of these, so you decide if you want to. 


The following is an addition as I thought to add this stain remover I buy from Wegmans. I can't remember the price, but it's very good for removing stains, even ones forgotten about. I spray it on the stain, rub it in, wait for a few minutes and put it through the wash. I don't know if I even have to wait. 9 times out of 10 the stain has been removed, even the blueberry ones forgotten about. It impresses me every time.


Apparently we are all walking miracles, so here we go again, strutting. 

Are you a…and yes I am a …

Words are fun!

I can’t say I have been that rebellious but I have been known to dig my heals in at times when I feel it is important.


But often enough I am with Keanu Reeves on this one.

Last one, a beautiful owl picture. 

I hope you have enjoyed them and feel free to let me know if you like them, or not.  These are from Pinterest.

Thanks for looking and have a great day!

  11. LOVE the first picture......so serene. Strut accordingly, lol. 1 + 1 = 5......you're right spew alert on that one. I don't read in bed, I'm in to audio books. I listen while I take my walks, do laundry, dinner prep, almost all household chores actually, and when knitting or crocheting. So audio books in bed wouldn't work.

    1. I hope it works Linda. I have added the stain remover I buy. If ever you are near a Wegmans, this product really works on tough stains. I have added a photo to this post.

    2. Thanks. I’ll have to watch for it next time I go to Wegmans.

  14. I love them all! I have saved the one for the milk, I am going to make it this week! I can't wait. Kneau Reeves is so right! Sometimes we can win the battle but lose the war. I have made something very similar to this stain remover, and it worked. Wish Wegmans were closer!! But I put the stain remover on my list for future purchases. I would love your first adorable house if I could do steps! Any doctor news?

    1. That's great Ginny :) Yes he has a lot of wise quotes out there, seems such a nice person in the way he treats others. I really respect him for that. Doesn't draw attention to himself but there's always someone out there with a cell phone to capture the moment, and he comes across as very down to earth. I hope the stain remover works for you. When we first moved here we didn't have a Wegmans and only heard that it was up in New York. The first one that opened it was like going to an amusement park, I just kept walking around and around. Now the novelty has worn off a bit but it is still our favorite store, and there are more of them around here now. I agree with you on that house and the steps. I dropped you an email :)

  20. Some of these were so delightful, Denise. You always find and share the most unique and unusual things. That cinnamon vanilla milk sounds cozy and comforting. I used to get those BIG pretzels at the mall sometimes. They were so good warmed up. The owl photo is so lovely.

    Have a good August week.

  22. Homemade pretzels are wonderful. Fun to make and eat. Cinnamon, also yum. I've got a cinnamon tea that is yummy. I also love cinnamon, hot water, lemon, turmeric and honey. Yummy. PS: Have you had cinnamon in hot chocolate? Also, yum.
