Friday Things #485
1. Dominic finished up another cycle of treatment last night; he fared really well this week, kept busy with hospital bingo, a Kiwi box, and a new Hulk Lego set. He will have multiple scans done towards the end of the month and then we should have a clear picture of what our next steps will be.
2. Isabelle LOVES watching the end of Joseph’s golf lessons ❤️
3. These two have really bonded so much over the last year and it is just the sweetest.
4. This ice cream serving hack had me 🤯 So brilliant!!
5. I LOVED Reading Rainbow as a kid!! >> How an Untested, Cash-Strapped TV Show About Books Became an American Classic
6. If you haven’t had an ice cream cake yet this summer, make my homemade Dairy Queen ice cream cake. Super easy and you can use your favorite flavors, but mmmm that fudge and crunch layer!
7. I love the idea of #1 on this list! >> 13 Things to Do With Friends (That Aren’t Dinner)
8. This is amazing, love it so much >> Senior Citizens Take the Ice at Snoopy’s Hockey Tournament
9. What’s the best thing you’ve made this summer? Inspire me!
10. TGIF! The most comfortable dog the world has ever known…
Continuing to pray for Dominic and for the entire family. He is a strong little guy who always looks happy. Love the picture of him and Isabelle! Times to cherish.
You are a Strong women Michelle! God Bless you and your Family…continued prayers for a Cancer Free Family!! The kids are growing! LOL They’re adorable and I’m happy to see how well adjusted they are (in the face of all of this adversity. Kids are resilient, they say, and when looking at your 2 sweethearts, you can tell they’re going to be just fine! Wonderful job Mom!!
I love making ice cream cakes…so much fun being creative with the flavors and between the layers crunch. I make 6″ cakes in a spring form pan. I use a variety of bases…thin brownie or various cookie crumb flavors.My favorite thing is mixing flavors for the layers…usually three. One layer is always vanilla to which I add sprinkles.
I use pints…sometimes ice cream but sometime gelato or even frozen yogurt. It all depends on the combinations I want to create.
Your post reminds me I need to make one soon…I now have a craving!!
LOVE your Friday posts! Of course I begin with holding back a tear: Dominic is so brave and so sweet. Then Joseph and Isabelle are just too adorable, and your beautiful pup at the end always makes me giggle. Thank you for sharing your experiences, cool sites to check out, and delicious recipes!
Love it when you publish your tips and ideas (like favourite sponges for dishwashing, storage containers etc). I can even get some of them here in UK. Not the sheets, though.
Your dogs are so photogenic. Oh, the kids, too!
Glad things medical are headed in right direction. positive thoughts continued.
I’ve been making a lot of my standby Salmon Salad for bake-free lunches.
Mix a chunk of hot-smoked salmon with just a little mayo, chopped green onions and some fresh dill weed. Chopped chives too if you’ve got ’em. A little pepper to taste.
That’s it. Can use on open sandwiches, or for an appetiser on crackers, rye bread or Romaine lettuce pieces. Delicious, and healthy.
Oops, it’s Marcia and I meant Dominic, not Joseph. I’ve always thought they look like the other’s name and mix them up. Sorry.
A super quick and tasty meal is Ree Drummond’s Deconstructed egg roll bowl. It is a big hit at our home and my daughters have loved it in theirs.
Hoping for good results for Joseph. Your kids are little troopers.
Continued prayer, you are so wonderful about keeping things as normal as possible during all this. You are spectacular. I was a Peds oncology nurse for years.
Prayers for all of you know it is oh so hard 💕💕💕
So glad Dominic’s treatment went well. Such a brave boy. That ice cream serving hack is so cool, however, I have never had enough space in my freezer for a muffin tin! Do I have too much in my freezer? 🤦🏻♀️
Always great content! Loved the reading rainbow article. This summer I made cheeseburger sliders a few times and they are very yummy! Plus your blueberry crumb bars which are a huge hit every time!
