Halfway through summer! If your summer runs from June 1 to September 1, that is. The grade school I attended ended just before Memorial Day and started around Labor Day so that is forever fixed in my mind as “summer vacation”. Never mind what the calendar said or that Bytes and his brother attended a year round school for a while with a month off between sessions. Or that in some parts of the world that period of time is actually winter. Whatever is going on in your life or what season it is — may life bring some joy your way this week!
A couple of most visited links and one that caught my eye last week:
Mandatory Mooch shared how to make cute Krispie Watermelon Slices.
Her little one had so much fun playing with dinosaur tails at a museum, There Was a Crooked House figured out how to make one at home and shared the tutorial with us!
Cornerstone Confessions shared her grocery shopping list. Go on over and print your own!
Features are pinned each week. You can find my Pinterest boards here — love to have you follow. Now for this week’s party . . . . .
Link directly to your post – as many posts as you like of something YOU created yourself and that you have not linked here before.
Add a Busy Monday button somewhere on your blog or add a text link to your post. Links mean you’ll be considered for a feature. I’d love it if you would also follow A Pinch of Joy in some way.
Please take a minute to visit one or two other Busy Monday links .and leave some goodness in the comment box. You’ll find the friendliest people party here!






Thanks for hosting. Nice features this week. That dinosaur tail is precious!
I’ve linked my recipe for Neptune’s Pasta this week. It’s a super simple dish that can be made with any seafood you have on hand. It comes together very quickly, making it a perfect weeknight meal. Enjoy!
Thank you so very much for ALWAYS hosting. I am so thrilled each week to be able to check out all the fine folks who share their amazing projects! Have a blessed week.
