A Pinch of Joy

Eat Healthy, Do it Yourself, Live Well, Have Fun.

Busy Monday 630

With fewer links than usual – thanks to the internet problems last week – how about a quick introduction to the bloggers behind the features this week! Some very interesting people with great life stories connect here each week, so let’s say hi!  Notes are in the “Featured from Last Week” section.  Just once and just today for fun.    Thanks for stopping by to share your awesomeness this week!

Featured from last week:   Debbie Dabble Paint Projects and Changes in the Living Room  Debbie was an RN and writes about her Victorian home and family.  She also has a Christmas blog with all things Christmas!  Our Grand Lives  Grand Summer Fun by Laurie   and Our Grand Lives  Olympic Sweets and Treats  by Laura.   Laura and Laurie are kindergarten  teacher friends, who blog about their life  after  school (retirement) with their Grands – always fun to read.   South House Designs – Moss Orbs  Diane says “ South House Designs. . . allowed me to escape the Corporate Jungle and sprout my entrepreneurial wings while nurturing and guiding three amazing young people from their cribs into productive, happy young adults”.       Style Yourself Confident  Monochromatic Dressing    Pamela says “I find most women, like me, don’t want to look like fashion models, just want a bit more confidence…!”  Cindy’s On-Line Recipe Box  – Glazed Strawberry Shortcake Cookies    Cindy is a wife, mother and grandmother, and a new great-grandmother from NE Texas (who) ” lived California too, so my style of cooking is Southern comfort food, with a nod towards HEALTHY”.   Scratch Made Food — Tell Us About Blogging  – Read Melynda’s unique story in this post that inspired the introductions included in Busy Monday this week!     Studio 27 by Jennifer Adams   Reupholstered Patio Chairs with Vintage Curtains   Jennifer says she is   “ a regular girl living in Central Illinois (the Mid Western part of the United States) who enjoys crafting, design and making things pretty”, but there is more on the about page.      Our Tiny Nest  Nesting   Another RN, Nicolle, from upstate New York shares the story of her life with her husband and two sons on her blog.  Thrifting Wonderland  Just a Little Bit More Lynne is an avid thrifter, always on the hunt for the beautiful old china, crystal and silverware and other pretty things.  Creatively Beth – Printable Lunch Notes       Beth credits time with her grandmother sewing and crafting piquing her interest in arts. She earned her degree in fine arts and loves to create.  The fun facts on her about page says she only has 12 states left to visit.  Me too!     If you weren’t featured this week – please feel free to share a sentence or two about YOUR blogging story in the comments!
