Keeping in Touch

This will be a short post as I'm working on another Shutterfly album and the coupon expires this Sunday, but I do want to keep in touch.

Yesterday when I was in the grocery store I passed a tea display and couldn't resist stopping to take a picture.  I've never heard of Twisted Tea before but I love their advertising display - America Parties with Tea.


My son, Jeremy, sent a text and photo of Ellie yesterday modeling the outfit we gave her for her birthday, and saying she loves it.   The background wall mural is in Portland, MI [about an hour from Zeeland] and is advertising Courageous Coffee Cafe & Bakery Shop.  It was painted in August 2023.  The City is by the Looking Glass River as seen in the mural.


Granddaughter, Tiffany, sent a photo of her family taken in California on the 4th of July.  


Lastly, I'm still on my quest to consume more fiber foods, so yesterday's dinner was a Swiss Cheese, Broccoli, Mushroom and Bacon Quiche served with a Spinach Strawberry Salad [which I recently provided the recipe]. Today's menu will be Chicken, Tomato and Cheese Quesadillas with a Romaine Garden Salad.  A quick easy meal so I have more time to spend working on my Shutterfly album.


A blog reader from Kansas recently wrote me and while sharing her interest in travel stated she has been to 49 states.  That made me wonder how many states I've been to and I came up with 38.  Not sure if I'll ever get to all of the other 12 remaining states but I hope to get a few more crossed off before my traveling days are over.  Do you know how many states you've visited?  According to a 2022 YouGov poll the average American has visited 17 states and Washington D.C.   Only 2% have visited all 50 states.  

Take care, and Michigan readers stay dry as today promises to be a wet one!

  1. I saw an ad for Shutterfly (I think it was for unlimited pages) and wondered if you were working on another book.
