Good morning! Are you ready to rest, relax and take it easy this weekend or will you be doing something exciting? I am ready to take it easy and enjoy some family time. If you will be staying in I found some scrumptious things you might want to make, read and watch.

Food

When I was a child my grandmother ate chocolate rice for breakfast, and I always loved it, this Maple Walnut Rice Breakfast Bowl from Delicious Made Easy reminds me of it.

Smothered Cheddar Bacon Ranch Chicken from Fox Valley Foodie sounds like a delicious change from grilled chicken.

Broccoli Cheddar Soup with Cheesy Croutons from Bon Appetit looks like a delicious soup to make this weekend ad the weather is going to be cold and rainy.

I could eat this entire pan of Pecan Sticky Buns from Flouring Foodie.

All Along You Were Blooming

A celebration of hope. An encounter with grace. A restoration of the heart. A healing of wounds. An anthem of freedom. All Along You Were Blooming is the ultimate love letter from the pen of popular Instagram poet Morgan Harper Nichols to your mind, to your heart, to your soul, and to your body.

Morgan Harper Nichols delivers a striking collection of illustrated poetry and prose, inviting you to “stumble into the sunlight” and delight in the wild and boundless grace you’ve been given. There is a purpose in every season, and no matter how you want to race through this day or run away from this place, rest assured that you are invited to live fully—right here, right now. Light will always find you, and even when the sun sets and you sit awaiting the dawn, know you are still blooming in the way you were meant to. And in each small moment, whether in the light or the dark, you can make room for becoming, for breathing, for stumbling, and for simply being—for there is Grace, today and every day.

    I have one to share with you. I have always loved This American Life, which I've listened to for decades on NPR, and, thank heavens for the Internet, as a podcast now that I live beyond NPR range. The latest episode is about delight. There are short pieces about people who find joy in their lives. Utterly delightful and a real nudge to do the same.
