Another week, another grouping of items that have been on my mind.

Recipe: Spreads
This is an oldie Pioneer Woman recipe. The original post was 2009.
I started making these for Monday night bible study. I was honestly sick of the cookie hustle. They can eat 6 dozen cookies like I set out one sliced cucumber. So this is the route I've gone, and they get gobbled up... and I don't spend 3 hours making cookies. Honestly I think I like them better than a regular cookie.
Product I'm Loving: This Walking Pad
I was wanting something since I don't have the time during the school year to go to the park, and our neighborhood isn't really the ideal walking area. I've gotten to where any workout has to happen at home. I really love this for 3 reasons. First, it fits under the bed. Second, it has the option to incline. Finally, it keep me from having to pace the house to get steps.
Craft Project I'd Like to Start : New Look Pattern 6707
I've been holding onto this shirt pattern for about a year. This might sound strange, but I saw awhile ago where someone had made a wedding dress out of my favorite bed sheet set I've ever owned. Being millenials, we don't use the top sheet, and I want to make this blouse out of that top sheet.
Reading: The Danish Secret to Happy Kids
After reading a book about French children when Harry was a baby, I've sort of gobbled up anything in the European raising of kids that I can find. This book gives great insight into how they raise kids and is hilarious at the same time.
Listening : Celebrity Memoir Bookclub
I love this podcast, at times they've got a bit of language, but it their summaries of books has directed which memoirs I'm reading. I'm not much on fiction. I also love hearing their takes on celebrities, it's like having this discussion with a friend while I'm working out.
Perfect for the mom who never gets to see anyone and her friends aren't really into what these people are up to.
For instance, the current episode is on Carol Radziwill. She was on RHONY for a time, but before that she was a journalist and married to/involved with the Kennedy crowd of the 90's. Young, hip, and terribly tragic.
Outfit:
Considering I was already thinking about it, I'm probably wearing a version of this to church Sunday.
