Weekly Roll - Sister Edition


Well I decided to just share all the links my sister and I shared with each other.  Sharing is caring, right?Photo above is from my sister showing me the fall color in Colorado.

Linky Love

Artist Uses Several Puzzles to Create Mash Ups - this is really cool and creative. I kinda want to try this. My sister sent me this.

Cake Goop - Never heard of this before but helps release the cake. My sister sent this

Apple Cider Donut Cake - I tried to convince my sister to make this. Sharing is caring. It was a no go . Sent from me.


I tried to convince my sister she needed to make this for her Thanksgiving celebration. Doesn't everyone need Piecaken. The answer is always YES!

Eye See You - Entry Way

 


I like to decorate for the holidays. I have pared back as my kids are now older and adults. However, I  do like a touch of  Halloween.  This is this years entry way. 2020 version


I scored the eye on the candlestick and eye plate this year at Michaels 50 percent off sale. Oh and last year I threw out all my saved Spanish moss. I couldn't find it at the dollar store so it cost me. That stuff is messy. The best deal I could find was at Hobby Lobby. All the rest is recycled Halloween stuff from previous years - baseball eyes and free printables

Weekly Roll - You Got the Wrong Parent

 Inappropriate Thoughts

My Husband has been working out of state. My son's (grown) still live at home. Recently, they have made some requests such as can we have eggs benedict and can we have gravy with this. I actually said out aloud , " You've Got The Wrong Parent."  Need a form signed, cookies made, need to get somewhere on time, I am the parent for you. Secondly, welcome to the adult world. It is possible for you all to make this stuff.

Things I have googled

Algaebarn - Yep- Saw a job listing on indeed and I needed to know more. I have been discovering lots of different aquaculture jobs as my son is studying this stuff

50 Sunsets/Sunrise Project

taken 8/10/21- Sunset

I want to do something celebrate my 50th year. So back in the summer, I thought about what I could do. I have always loved chasing the sunset.  I am often up at sunrise. So what about capturing 50 sunset/sunrises. It feels very Elise Joy to have a year project. 

Maybe there should be some rules/guidelines to this project. I am actually starting this prior to my 50th Birthday because an opportunity presented it self - my project , my rules

doesn't have to be from 50 unique places

looking for some unique shots

can be either sunrise/sunset

have a way to display completed project or share project

End date 11.13.22

it would be fun to have shots from around the county - I googled where are the best places for sunset pictures in my county

        Zuanich point Park

        Marine Park

        Taylor Dock

        Clark's Point

        Larrabee State Park

        Table Mountain

        Cornwall Beach

        Squalicum Beach

        Locust Beach

        Clayton Beach

        Oyster Dome

        Waypoint Park

        Mt Erie (Anacortes)

        *Peace Arch Park (my own idea)

        *Birch Bay (my own idea)

Less ideas for decent locations for Sunrise Pictures. The Sunrise from my house is decent. Usually in the winter I take more sunrise pictures than sunset.
