5 For Friday July 5 greetings

Happy Friday! Hope all had a cool 4th celebration whether with friends and/or family or chilling by yourself. GREAT fun line-up today! BEGINNING WITH: STACY'S WORLD Column this week is INDEED fashion fun! Thanks, Stac, for keeping us in the know and in the loop! QUICK QUESTION Which of the 2 smells better?  That's a toughy because I love both smells.  I call it a draw.  Won't choose one over the other.  Nope!  You? NO SISSY NONSENSE STORY Tounge-in-Cheek laughter! CHINESE CHICKEN SALAD RECIPE Is 2 big thumbs UP!

5 for FRIDAY | MARCH 15

Friday Howdy to all! Fun lineup today --- Beginning with STEPHANIE'S CHIC ON THE CHEAP regarding Restoring Discolored Clothing. Boy, oh, boy, do I totally have a couple pair of "favorite" jeans that I just haven't been able to part with because we've been hanging out together a long time -- however, they have aged and have that yellow tinge thing going on that Steph talks about in her column today.  I just dug them out from the top of the closet and they are so going to go in the recipe - to soak and see if they, too, will be revived as Stephanie's jeans did!  Excited. I also love Steph's iron-on patch fix = a one-of-of-a-kind pair of jeans.  Ta-Dah! Met Steph for lunch today, which was a super chill time and she gifted me a tank top that didn't work for her (color wise).  Sure does for me!  And she purchased it from Temu.com. I'm a Temu.com believer and will be shopping there more and more. Thanks, Steph!  As always, you keep us in the know with your fun+valuable info.  Keep 'em coming, girl. QUICK QUESTION What do I hate throwing away? Hands down - items I find in the 'fridge that expired before I got to them.  Gotta be more diligent and I'm on that mission. DOGS BETTER THAN WIVES Story is brilliant.  Not sure I love the title all the way, but, whether we (as women/wives) want to admit -- much of the list 'tis true.  Ha!

5 for FRIDAY | FEBRUARY 9

Howdy Amazing Readers! It's crazy warm here.  Like low 70's! Heard one of the D.J.'s on the radio station today say, "I wouldn't have ever thought I'd be rocking shorts and flip-flops to work in early February - but I am.  And I'm not complaining!" I wasn't rocking shorts and flip-flops - but I was absolutely enjoying the warm temps today.  Enjoying it while it lasts! 5 for FRIDAY - full line-up of happy.  Beginning with: STEPHANIE'S CHIC ON THE CHEAP Steph's Charcuterie board presentation ideas are "Hello - easy, casual entertaining with an unforgettable Razzle-Dazzle vibe."  A chili board or a baked potato board?  Guests will be in love at first sight! PLUS for Valentine's day or an Anniversary - the adorable "Cupid's Arrows" and Jalapeno "Roses" to pop in for an extra little-little something.  So creative! Steph,  thanks for your great tips, know-how and ideas for Fashion, DIY Art and Entertaining to keep us in the Cool-Kids-Club! QUICK QUESTION How do I finish the phrase, "The way to my heart is ..." Answer:  Genuine, heart  laughter time - hands down.

5 for FRIDAY | DECEMBER 15

Merry Merry Greetings friends and Friday! Super fun episode today beginning with: STEPHANIE'S CHIC ON THE CHEAP Big fan of Stephanie's ideas for pairing and accessorizing for adding pizzazz to this wonderful time of year dressing the part! Learned something from today's Stephanie's Chic on the Cheap column.  Pic #2 - Kitten heeled boots!  Me being a Birkenstock and flip-flop girl always wondered what those cute little heeled boots/shoes I see women wearing are called.  Now I know! And!  the beautiful vintage brooches and little purse are super fab ideas.  Same - gold belt, bangles, and the Ooo-la-la print jeans.  Applause to all! I am so gonna Bling-it-on these next days to Christmas and even a New Year's gathering (following Stephanie's fashion in the know tips) and have confident fun doing it! Thanks, Steph, for always keeping us in the cool-kid-fashion-club! QUICK QUESTION When I was a kid - if memory serves me correctly - I had this little stuffed animal dog with long hair that I named Muffin.  Ha!  I know, super creative, right?  I did also have a Charlie McCarthy ventriloquist doll.  It was a Christmas gift from Santa one year.  But he came with his name.

5 for FRIDAY | NOVEMBER 10

Greetings Beautiful Readers and Happy Friday ! Another stellar line up this 5 for FRIDAY beginning with: STEPHANIE'S CHIC ON THE CHEAP column. As always, Steph brings her innate fashion expertise to us!  Fortunate us - she writes exclusively for Daymaker Readable Art. The SPANX leather looking leggings are the bomb-a-reno!  Love that they're so versatile - tennis shoes, boots, sweatshirt, dressy shirt, and BONUS they keep any jiggle-wiggles tucked in! I'm gravitating toward the tennis shoe look with the SPANX leggings.  That's me. My sisters, have said to me more than a handful of times, "Cher, do you have any other shoes in your closet besides tennis shoes and Birkenstocks or flip-flops?" I say, "Yeah, of course."  They say, "Time to break 'em out."  HA! As soon as I finish plugging in today's episode -- I'm going to look for a pair of these SPANX leather looking leggings for MOI.  Starting with Steph's tip of checking out Ebay first! Thank you, Steph, for keeping us in the know with your tried-and-true insider info! QUICK QUESTION - What could someone figure out about me by the friends I've chosen? My answer -- positive, happy people who are laid back and easy to be around.  You?

5 for FRIDAY | OCTOBER 6

Presenting 5 for FRIDAY's read this October 6. We had a crazy storm that blew through here Wednesday night.  Not just "a" storm but the threat of a possible tornado in the area. Felt a little like a white knuckle ride -- as the tornado sirens were heard loudly in the night - warnings of take cover sort of thing - this is not a test.  YIKES! My wonderful neighbors = friends had me in their thoughts.  Texting or calling -- "get in the bathroom," "make sure you have your running shoes on and your purse close ... in case ..."  "Are you okay?" "Copy."   "Copy."   "Yes."  were my responses via text. My little freeloaders (aka cats) were less than impressed with the lock-down time in the bathroom -- but they're over it now.  They have short-term memories.  Ha! Torrential rain, crazy wind, etc ... Long story short - tornado blew over our part of the world with no damage and went whipping away somewhere else.  Hopefully back up in the sky where it started! Today's line-up is packed full of happy:

WEDNESDAY READER | AUGUST 30

We've had a teeny-tiny reprieve from the triple digits!  Relief.  Crazy to believe that 95* feels like a gift.  But it sure does! Walking my 3 miles - got a little more pep-in-my-step!  ha Presenting Wednesday Reader! Line up - Quick Question - what unnerves me but doesn't seem to bother a mass majority?  My answer to that would be lack of common manners.  Manners = Class.  You? RIDDLE - I didn't guess the riddle answer.  However, now that I know the answer.  No-Brainer.

5 FOR FRIDAY | AUGUST 25

QUICK QUESTION What do you do when you hear something fall in the middle of the night when you're in bed? I do a big gulp, get out of bed - because I just gotta know where that noise came from.  To date - it's usually cat related.  HA STEPHANIE'S CHIC ON THE CHEAP never disappoints with all of her cool fashion ideas!  And egg cartons for storing tiny little necklaces?  Fabulous idea!  I'm on it. #4 PICTURE A book for sale at an outdoor venue.  I had to laugh.  Because - I surely won't laugh at a live dragon should I see one. SWEET AND TART TARRAGON CHICKEN SALAD recipe is delicious.  Different - and I feel pretty confident won't disappoint.  Give it a try.
