Weekend Traffic Jam - Week 158

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.

Isn't it amazing how simple pictures like these can take you back in time (my sister also took them in the old neighborhood, well, old for me)?
This used to be part of my way home from my best friend. I could have taken a shorter one, but there was no "zebra stripe" (aka crosswalk) on the busy road there, so I always took a little detour to be on the safe side.
Today I watched a video about how some people read (leave out prologue and epilogue, only read the dialogue ... how weird), and the creator mentioned reading in the street.
That's what I used to do, have my nose in a book on the way home or make up stories for myself which were usually based on favorite books.
I can never see this part of the street without remembering a neighbor kindly warning me not to read while walking and watch my step instead. Yup, that's what I have to do nowadays, but back then I didn't listen 😉
 

Are you ready for the weekend?

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 bushel and a pickle.

Linda from bushel and a pickle says: "Welcome! I’m Linda and I’m so glad you stopped by.
I live a rich and full life in Lancaster, Pennsylvania in a very, very old farmhouse. Bushel & a pickle (named for my daughter’s childhood saying) is my story of life experiences, family, travels and faith."

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.

Judee really makes me want to try frozen limonana, it sounds so good!

I think it's great that Mireille is trying to have a solo picnic each week.

Joanne's post about Bryce Canyon gave me a flashback, such beautiful pictures.

Have you ever heard about croissant s'mores? Laura has tried them.

Nancy shows us a modern take on countryside chic.
