A Sunday Shout-Out

I know I said I was going to call it "pimping" but hell, it's Sunday and I'm nothing if not holy.

This is my second shout-out about a blog I like and recommend.

I know ROBIN from the many photo memes that we both participate in. Her photographs are wonderful. She lives in Israel and shares both daily life and bits of history with us. Her blog is aptly titled 'Around the Island' because she has a kitchen to just simply die for. No matter how many times her site opens I always take a moment to be happy for her - if I knew how to do a strikeout that would read - grossly envious.

And since serendipity and perfect timing are so me (along with the holiness) I'm giving this shout-out on the day that Robin is starting her very own photo project - I really hate the word meme.

Robin's new photo project is 'Summer Stock Sunday' - where you can share photos that represent summer to you.

My contribution for the inaugural episode of SSS is this boat speeding out of the Keyport Marina on its way to (I assume) Dah Joisey Shaw (the New Jersey Shore).



Take a moment and check out all ROBIN'S blog has to offer - starting with that kitchen.

It's (really not so) Hard Out Here For A Pimp ...

When I decided to take down (blow up) my blog roll I mentioned that I preferred to give shout outs (I call it pimping cause that’s the way I am) to blogs I enjoy, blogs that entertain or inform, people I have come to care about and places I love to click on.

Well I’ve got someone who fits all that.

My friend Thom (he has an ‘h’ cause he’s hot) has two blogs.

The FIRST covers the world of TV – it’s a great place to find reviews and news and most important for me – when does the new season of Army Wives begin.

His OTHER BLOG is more personal. He posts his WORDZZLE entries there, which is how I met him, and he writes from the heart – as he did so eloquently this past Friday – and he participates in enough fun memes to make my head spin – oh and there’s usually a really good quiz too.

And he’s true to himself while being open minded and thoughtful of others. I discovered that when we butted heads over some political thing I said. Thom recently described me as being so far left he thinks he can see Pluto beside me – I LOVE that and may use it as my epitaph.

So check him out. You won’t be disappointed.

Yesterday was my DIL’s surprise baby shower so be prepared for a scintillating tale of strollers and car seats and breast pumps – Oh My!

Happy Monday Campers
