Friday thoughts / bev cooks

Frrrrrrrrrrrrrraylaydaypaymaydaydayday! (just try and love it) Let’s talk about OLD BOOKS. And I don’t mean like, Pride and Prejudice. Although you can if you want. Actually, we’ll include it. But what I mean is like, oldER books that you read 15 or so years ago and you still remember most of the details. Some of […]

Tulips in the front yard / Bev Cooks

Frrrrrrrrrrrrrederlee doo! Wait have I done that one before? I realized yesterday that I’m well on my way to becoming a hanger person. A travel hanger person. One of those GARMENT BAG HANGER PEOPLE. You know what I’m talking about. Think about when your parents visit you, and they get out of the car, and […]

Frappy Fool’s Day! I hate it. Okay, hate is a strong word. Don’t say hate, blah blah blah. But really, as much as I’m into watching prank and joke shows (Candid Camera forever), I can’t handle BEING PRANKED. All caps. I can’t. So far this morning (and these are mild) there was a fake spider […]

Frrrrrrrrrrrrrr y a d i r f! Why is it that anytime and every time someone and everyone points to their tooth and says, “You have something..” we go for the wrong tooth. And that person, without fail, says, “Other side.” EVERY TIME. What is it about humans that cannot get this right? “Wrong side. […]

cool space / bev cooks

FRRRRRRrrrrrrrrrrrrRRRRRRRRrrrrrrrr. I have a sourdough starter! My friend Anna gave me a sourdough starter. And now I get WHAT the heck it is. It’s a bubble sludge. A pre-dough bubble sludge. Not quite dough, not quite loogie. Somewhere in between. And today I have to “feed” it, you guys. I think I might just give […]

bird in a window / bev cooks

Fridaaaaaayyyyaaaaaah! (<–see I can keep it mild.) Can we just talk about the bedpan situation around the grandparents’ bed in Willy Wonka real quick? I know it’s been at the top of your to-dissect list. First of all, four elderly grandparents. In a full-size bed. Together. CONSTANTLY. And apparently none of them can walk? At […]

roses / bev cooks

FRRRRRRRRRRRRlotdaysomefri! Or something like that. I finally made a reel! (I felt your collective groan.) Technically, I made two reels. One that is just horrible, and one slightly more tolerable. But they’re fun! You guys I have resisted for SO LONG. This grumpy grandma did not want to get with the times. Well, in a […]

kets and book / bev cooks

Frrrrrrrrremdemlempemday! WATER BEDS. Do you remember water beds?! And more crucial than that, did you have a water bed? We totally did. Of course we did. What HAPPENED was, my parents’ best friends in the ’80s had a water bed, so we’d go over to their house and play constantly with their small kids on […]

Frrrrrrrrrrrrrrreh! TAYLORDLE? TAY LOR DLE. You’ve seen, right? You’ve heard, right? Tay has her own Wordle game! Five letter words, all related to Swift language. I discovered this yesterday and have only played once. Scratch that, I just pulled it up. I’m on clue two. Is it a SONG? I need a hint. Never mind […]
