Welcome to the Weekend Traffic Jam Reboot!
My
posts for the link up will go live on Thursdays at 9:30 p.m. EDT or, if
you live in the future like I do, on Fridays at 3:30 a.m. CE(S)T.
I know that for someone who doesn't even cook or anything I talk a lot about food in the reboot posts. Today is about one of the things that stand between food and me sometimes - I'm talking about my brain.
The other day I wanted to make myself some toast. I'm good at that, practically a pro. I can pop in a slice with the best of them. But my toaster was broken. How was that possible, from one day to the next? It's not even that old yet. The toast just didn't stay down and the light wouldn't come on, either. Maybe it was the socket, let's try the one next to it. No. Crumbs stuck? No. You can tell I was already reaching for straws there.
Hunger wouldn't let me give up, though, and in the end the solution was quite, erm, easy ... it totally helps if you don't use the egg cooker's plug (which doesn't even look the same)! 🤪 (<- this is the actual face I made at that point, only with glasses on).

Are you ready for the weekend? What are your plans?
As part of the reboot, we will be featuring a different blog every week.
How about stopping by and saying hello? Let them know we sent you.
This week our spotlight is on Wisdoms & Wrinkles.
Laura-Kim from Wisdom & Wrinkles says "I'm Laura, a 46-year-old recovering helicopter mom learning to fly solo as my nest gradually empties.
After 18 years of blogging about the chaos of raising four kids, I'm now navigating the unexpected adventures of midlife with hot flashes, reading glasses, and a whole new perspective.
These days, you'll find me working from home alongside my husband (yes, we're still talking!), managing a household that's somehow both quieter and louder with just two kids still under our roof. I'm documenting this grand adventure of reinvention - from surviving menopause with my sense of humor intact to redefining my role as mom to young adults, while discovering who I am beyond the chaos of kids in school.
Join me as I share the laughs, tears, and unexpected wisdom that come with embracing this next chapter. Because while my wrinkles might be multiplying, so are the reasons to smile."
Marsha from Marsha in the Middle started blogging in 2021 as an exercise in increasing her neuroplasticity. Oh, who are we kidding? Marsha started blogging because she loves clothes, and she loves to talk or, in this case, write!
Melynda from Scratch Made Food! & DIY Homemade Household - The name says it all, we homestead in East Texas, with three generations sharing this land. I cook and bake from scratch, between gardening and running after the chickens, and knitting!
Lisa from Boondock Ramblings shares about the fiction she writes and reads, her faith, homeschooling, photography and more.
Cat from Cat's Wire has what she calls a jumping spider brain. She has many interests and will blog about whatever catches her attention - crafts, books, old movies, collectibles or random things.
Rena from Fine Whatever Blog writes about style, midlife, and the "fine whatever" moments that make life both meaningful and fun. Since 2015, she's been celebrating creativity, confidence, and finding joy in the everyday.
Here are some of my picks from last week's link up.
Got leftover packing paper? Ann shows us how to use it to make something pretty!
Mireille is taking us with her to a visit of the Biltmore Estate, Asheville, North Carolina.
I think these earrings that Moois made give off great 60s vibes!
Amy is talking about having fun. When was the last time you had fun?
Nicole is seeing things in the snow - what do you see?
Let's link up!
