Excerpts from my Google reader~it’s like settling down to read a good book that’s never ending, as I always find something inspiring, thought provoking or just plain funny.

I laughed out loud at this. You will too. Read how Jeff Fisher lost his tonsils (at least that’s how I see it…what do you think?)

This should have been part of my “I WANT Wednesday” series (of which I neglected yesterday).  Meet Des Moines local artisan Calee Himes.  What I WANT is a coffee cup that says “Good Morning” to me….in the morning.  Sometimes I need that.  Don’t forget to visit her Etsy shop.

I’m a big fan of Allison’s blog theme here…..A Tasteful Garden.  I’m particularly fond of her daily photo series with their informational tags~my favorite so far? This one…from Stowe, Vermont

Got a garden to be proud of?  Take a snapshot and submit it to Better Homes & Gardens photo contest!  Prizes up to $5000! Think of what you can do with that kind of cash! Good luck!
