From my earlier post about Inspiration and Greener Grass, thanks for the very genuine comments and sharing who inspires you, and why.

Also, it was interesting to read if you’re a person who tends to think the grass is greener, or not.

Lots of wonderful feedback on that post and thank you for being so honest in the comments.

Questions:

1. Have you made anything this week or seen anything that really caught your eye!

I think my White Chocolate Chip Blondies with Chocolate Peanut Butter Frosting were the best thing I made all week.

But as usual, there are so many great recipes out there!  I could spend days in my kitchen cooking! 

2. Weekend Plans?  Any plans for Mother’s Day?

I don’t know if Scott realizes it’s Mother’s Day weekend.  We shall see.

So far, no plans other than the usual: working, working out, cooking, cleaning, blogging, and being with Skylar.

Mother’s Day plans thus far are nonexistent, but that’s ok.  I’d rather keep things loose, low key, and open-ended.  For me, one way to “ruin” a holiday is to over-plan and over-schedule it, and not factor in downtime and chilltime.

I have so much to do anyway this weekend because we are leaving for our trip soon!

P.S. Last Reminder to enter the Granola Giveaway.  Winner announced in the morning.
