Style Scouting Vol.5

Hi my friends.

It’s the weekend when I like to enjoy some down time. This weekend Ed is on a trip so I am also getting to enjoy some alone time. Since it is too cold to do anything outside, I am planning on a Netflix binge tonight with a fire crackling in the fireplace while snuggled under a warm blanket. Have you seen Mr. Church on Netflix?  So good!!

Netflix and Prime Video have spoiled me as I can no longer bear to watch network shows and have to wait until the following week to see how the plot and storyline unfold.

Do you have any favorite Netflix or Prime movies or shows?

Here are a few links to things that were part of my week….

No Need To Go Out on the Town for Valentine’s – In Favor of a Cozy Night In

On a cold winter’s day, this photo is the perfect reminder of what is to come.

If you have a fireplace in your home, any one of these will help to keep you toasty.

This book is for anybody who wishes their kitchen table wasn’t a storage area for the mail, bills magazines and other non-eating area items.

I love going to the library on a weekly basis. It is one of my favorite parts of my week. I just finished and found this Decorating book very inspiring and started this Decorating home design book.

I was interviewed for this….The fascinating history behind this winter decorating accessory that has been around since the 1970’s. I have eight!

If you like comfy cozy tops, but don’t want plain and boring. I am loving this cozy pullover. It’s comfy with style. I have it in the color Navy. I love that you can pull the velvet ties to make the neck open or create a turtleneck when I am feeling chilly.

Not sure I could do this, but there are some days that I am ready too. And this has me thinking more about the tech I use. Then a blogging friend, Jenny at Evolution of Style wrote this….

“Ok, so I am aware of internet “cookies” out there, and how social media tracks the things that I search for, and click on throughout the day, and then feeds me ads for them.  But I kid you not, I had a product show up in my Facebook feed that I had just used, and hadn’t uttered a word about it, nor had I searched for it.  It was just plaid weird.  I mean, does Facebook have cameras in my house, watching me, kind of weird.  Am I the only one who has had this happen?  Nevermind that it happens when I talk about a product. Can I get an amen on other people who have had this happen?  Surely I’m not alone.  I know I’m not alone.” 

This has happened to me twice in the past few weeks, but not when I was in Facebook. I was in my phone’s home screen. Has it happened to you yet?

Oh, yes please… this is what I want to make for Sunday breakfast.

Making anything sweet for your Valentine? If only Ed liked chocolate.

A twist on a classic Valentine treat.

Hope you can relax and snuggle a bit over the weekend.  Enjoy!
