Friday Favorites from the Giltter Guide, Handle the Heat, French Garden House and More

June 14, 2015 By Elizabeth@ Pine Cones and Acorns 3 Comments

Good morning! A happy, beautiful weekend to you. I have been traveling this week in Pennsylvania and it has been beautiful, not only the weather but the scenery and the sights. I have visited gardens, battlefields, museums and of course have feasted on tasty treats as well. This weekend I am ready to have a vacation from my vacation. 

Must Read from The Glitter Guide

Summer is synonymous with many for reading. I can remember walking back and forth to the library at least once a week laden down books and adventures waiting to happen. The Glitter Guide posted its Must Read List for June and there looks to be something for everyone if you are looking for something new this week.

I love chocolate chip cookies ( ok, mostly the dough) and never tire of trying and tasting new recipes. This week I discovered a recipe for Browned Butter Chocolate Chunk Cookies from Handle the Heat that looks easy and scrumptious.

For those of you who love seafood in the summer, check out this Lobster Salad from French Garden House. I don’t know what looks better the dinner or the beautiful table setting.

Summer is all about adventures, so this year why not take the time to document your adventures, even if they are in your own back yard with the wonderful Travel Journal from Tom Bihn that Patricia of PVE Designs featured this week.

Don’t forget that Father’s Day is just around the corner, if you are looking for a few gift ideas check out Vicki’s fabulous finds on  French Essence.

I hope that you have a great weekend. I am looking forward to seeing what you have been up to this week.

I would love to have you stop by and add some of your blog links to our lifestyle blog linkup #stylefocus this weekend. It's so much fun to meet new bloggers.

To respect my brothers wishes I can’t say more.

Did you know that heart disease is the leading cause of death in women? Ladies if you don’t take care of yourself no one else can, eat right and get moving, cardio vascular exercise is great for your heart!

This is how I feel tonight, as if I am seeing life This is how I feel tonight, as if I am seeing life through the blur of tears and sorrow. Sunday night my friend of 34 years lost her husband of 36 years, because of Covid he did not get to meet or hold his newborn grandson. Then just an hour ago we received a call that my husbands best friend died of a massive heart attack this morning. Sometimes life just knocks you to your knees and all you can do is pray for the  loved ones you’ve lost, cherish their memories and let your time with them sustain you until you meet again. Then you ask God for the strength to get up and move forward. #life #loss #givemestrength #givemestrengthlord #pray
