The Candee Dish

As if 2020 hasn’t been the longest year already, I just discovered it has 53 weeks 😩! I took the week off last week, but I’m back! 1) My friend Kim recently suggested I get some Watermelon and it was a GREAT suggestion! I don’t like a lot of fruit so I rarely buy it, but this was so good! My new summertime snack! 2) For Walt’s birthday this year I gave him a Cocktail Smoker . I had seen it on a celebrity house tour. It is so cool! You just put your glass in there (apparently you can put meats and cheeses in there too), turn it on and in less than a minute you have a smoky cocktail! 3) The Housekeeper  was our Book Club pick for June. I liked this book a lot. Disclaimer: I listened to the book, and I’m not sure I would recommend that. The narrator’s voice did not fit the characters at all. This one is better read! 4) My current favorite candle is Coastal Driftwood from Target. It’s light and refreshing! So good! Have a great week!

I took the week off last week. It seemed like my focus should be elsewhere.  1) I discovered this book,  The Broken Way , after seeing some of Ann Voskamp’s quotes which resonated with me. I haven’t finished the book, but I am super glad I found it. 2) I love my Peace Out bag! I took it to the lake and it got a stain on it, and I’m SO hoping I can get it clean.  3) I thoroughly enjoyed watching Defending Jacob  on Apple TV. I read the book about 8 years ago, and it follows the book quite a bit. While there are some differences, I was satisfied with the ending. 4) This is the favorite piece of art I have. Every time I see it, I still love it! All the other art tries to live up to its standards, but fall short.  Have a blessed day.
