How was your week? I have been getting over this cold, finally!!
Home
I am currently reading this design book:
It is a little more "Shabby Chic" than I like, but its message of "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle" is right up my alley! I am trying to keep my consumption to a minimum, and this book has some great ideas for reusing pieces from around the house.
Fashion
Culottes, although comfortable, are too short for my short-waisted-pear body type. They make my legs look even shorter than they actually are...
However, they are great to workout in, so they have been relegated to my workout wardrobe.
Food and Drink
This week I wanted to showcase a recipe book from Weight Watchers that focuses on recipes that incorporate what foods are in season!!
I will show which recipe we start with next week.
Favourite Things
This week, my favourite thing is "The Power of Now" by Ekharte Tolle.
This book changed my life!!
I used to be so worried about the future, on top of fretting about the past. This book changed the way I thought about living. I learned that the only time I can control is NOW, and the only thing I can control is how I react to events and people in my life...but not the events or people themselves!
Inspiration
Panache Desai is one of my favourite inspirational speakers. I follow him on Facebook, and I hope to someday attend one of his talks live.
This quote is about those things we work so hard to fight or keep secret about ourselves. I have learned that the more I fight my demons, the harder they try to show themselves, and in the worst possible way and time. Do not fight or resist your thoughts or feelings...let them out into the light (in a safe place) and let them flow...you will find that they aren't as bad as you originally thought. By fighting them, they seem a lot worse than they actually are.
Thank you for visiting, and remember I am...
Always your friend,
NJ 😘
