Weekly Wrap Up –

One of the scam posts I did is a gift that keeps on giving.. there have been thousands of views to that post since I first posted it. Some days nobody posts a comment on it, and then some days there are 5-10 new comments on the post. Some days maybe 20-30 people view it, and some days 200-300 people view it, and one day this week over 800 people viewed it..

Here at home, we are all set for concreting to happen, however the weather being so cold they have put the job off because concrete will crack if it gets too cold while it is setting. This means the cars are stuck out the front of the house which is not a comfortable situation for me.

We started the week with Sunday Selections Week 27, then I put together this guide on How To – Create Free Link Ups Via SimplyLinked. I talked about some teevee shows I have been enjoying on Television Tuesday – SBS On Demand and then on Wednesday I showed you my new coatigan with the help of Carter – Carter Models Again and finally I told you about one of my favourite actors – Men I Love To Watch – Aaron Paul.

Blog Spotlight –

Each week, I will link to a blog I am reading to shine a spotlight on it and tell you what I like about it. This week – whenever I go to Aldi, I am reminded of Imogen from Tia Cherie because some of the hair dye boxes have a model posing similarly to how Imogen often poses in her fashion shots.

Tia Cherie

I said in a comment there once that I would take a photo and post it, and I finally remembered to get my phone out on our fortnightly shop. Imogen, I love your style, and I love your blog. :)

Coming Up –

This week I will be talking about some of the new shows I have been watching on Television Tuesday. I’ll let the rest of the week come to you as a surprise. ;)

Today I have dug out some Connie photos from 2011, with a few different angles for you.

You can read more about the Connie here – Lockheed Super Constellation “CONNIE” VH-EAG. She is maintained by HARS who are also the owners of the Qantas 747 that flew into Albion Park earlier this year.

Weekly Wrap Up –

This week has been an interesting one in Snoskredland. We discovered that we did not have a sewer leak or a pipe leak but we likely had found a natural spring given the lack of rain here just lately..

I went on a shopping trip with the parents during which I FOUND MY KNIT at Millers and it is absolutely stunning! I did not see it on the website. I will show it to you this Wednesday.

Then in the latter half of the week, the contractors arrived to do preparations for our new driveway, and our cars have had to be parked out the front since Thursday which meant I cleaned out every single item, even from the gloveboxes, because we have a bit of a problem with car window smashing around here.

Sunday Sweets: Rainbow Connection – My favourite cake is the second one.

Domain Anonymity and the Brilliance of Entertainment Lobbyists – This *is* a terrible idea.

This leads me to write a message to the Entertainment Peoples. Guess what? People will pay for your stuff if you can provide them an easy and simple means to do so, plus, provide your entertainment via those means to the entire world within an hour of the show airing in the first country it airs in. Your licensing deals are so 1994. The internet exists now and you can’t just bury your head in the sad and pretend like it doesn’t.

5 Things To Do To Avoid Passing On Fake News on Social Media – Step 4 is super important. Always Snopes before you share!

Sparkler Art – A brilliant how to guide on making awesome sparkler photos.

This farm in a box generates $15,000 a month – This seems like a really great idea. I think my other half could build me one of these. ;)

Dark Secrets – The last paragraph of this post is pure gold. :) Better fix that machine soonest!

Pear and Rhubarb Almond Crumble {gf} A simple and awesome recipe. :)

And finally, your moment of animal beauty – Adelaide Zoo transfers orphaned tree kangaroo joey into surrogate wallaby mother’s pouch – There are no words for the cuteness of this creature. Just click and look. Trust me!

Here On The Blog –

I remembered a friend and our shared love for Breaking Bad with Sometimes there are words. I listed 55 new blogs added to the feed reader in the New Feeds June post. I showed you some new purchases in Wordless Wednesday – New Cards and shared 5 Lessons I Learned From Looking Back with you.

Blog Spotlight –

Each week, I will link to a blog I am reading to shine a spotlight on it and tell you what I like about it. This week –

Dancing With Frogs – Frogdancer has just taken off for Europe this week but she has long been one of my favourite reads and her blog was the first one that made me think I could keep chickens. I’m looking forward to reading about her travels!

Tomorrow is Friday – a look at negative and positive thoughts at work from 2006

Coming Up –

This week I have a how to guide for you on Monday, we’ll check out my new knit on Wednesday, on Friday we will have a Men I Love To Watch post.

For the month of July, we will be having regular Television Tuesday posts – I have a few shows I want to talk about.

This week we will revisit a little area in my house, which I have made a small change to recently. You’ve seen this area before in these posts – my paper weight where I showed you this cabinet was damaged on the top – Before and After where I added a table runner I had recently rediscovered to the top.

River commented on that post that she preferred the area without the table runner and I have to say I did agree with her. I had just wanted to hide that damaged section and the table runner was available, but I did want to buy a piece of material in a lighter colour – perhaps white, I thought – to cover the damage.

We had gone to visit Candleberries in Berry and we each got a large new candle, and on the way home I suggested we stop in at Spotlight to pick up some material. I spoke with the other half about a piece of white velvet or velour, and he said white would not be a good choice, I’d be forever washing it. So we ended up deciding on silver. I think it turned out pretty well. :) It almost looks like molten silver.

Weekly Wrap Up –

What an amazing week it has been for those who believe in love, with the US Supreme Court ruling that it is legal for all Americans, no matter their gender or sexual orientation, to marry the people they love. I will hope that Australia will follow suit sooner than later. If you did not read the ruling, you should make sure to read this one part of it – The Beautiful Closing Paragraph of Justice Kennedy’s Gay Marriage Ruling.

Here at home, I’ve still been recovering from this cold and with the ditch digger arriving I lost all track of time and forgot to schedule todays post as a surprise to myself. I had most of it written, because I write it during the week as I find links I like.

Posts Snoskred Enjoyed –

How Death and Dying Changed My Perspective on LGBT Rights – This was always my biggest reason why marriage should be legal for same-sex couples – this, and the situations where life partners were essentially locked out of making health decisions for their loved ones, on occasion being replaced by family members who had disowned their gay family member years before and who would have zero idea of the health wishes of that gay family member.

Jaws at 40: Steven Spielberg on the blockbuster that made him — and nearly ruined him – This was an interesting read.

The Likely Political Consequences of Proposed Changes to the Senate’s Electoral System – If you have read here for a while you know I am an enormous Antony Green fan. This post was fascinatory to me, especially after having worked elections.

Table Setting – You know I am a big fan of cobalt blue, so I deeply love this table setting. :)

Brodsworth Hall gardens – Some beauty to brighten your day. :)

Cute Coot – I love the first picture with the Coot on the nest. ;) Plus also, baby swans! Swanning About

Here On The Blog –

We kicked off the week with Sunday Selections Week 25

We went back in time a little with Art Time Travel.

We checked in on Carter – Carter & Happy – WW, plus I told you about my Improbable Kitty.

Anxiety Level: High – A ditch digger arrived. And thus we now have a leaking (sewer?) pipe. But it totally wasn’t The Other Half’s fault – we could tell it has been leaking for some time. This might explain a weird noise we get in the pipes when it rains..

Blog Spotlight –

Each week, I will link to a blog I am reading to shine a spotlight on it and tell you what I like about it. This week –

Engrish – A site that never fails to put a smile on my dial, especially now that I have a Chinese Aunt.

Picture Blog Today – A couple of kitty photos on my 15th post on the blog.

Coming Up –

I’ll let this week come to you as a surprise! ;) But you will see the June New Feeds post this week as it is almost the end of June.
