It's Sunday and that means it's time for a NEW Sunday Thymes! Today, we are sharing what's new on the blog, some fun finds, and what we've been up to! Please leave a comment if you have any questions or just want to say hi, we love hearing from you.

Bins of assorted apples, including pale yellow and red varieties, are displayed at the Sunday Thymes market stall. Handwritten signs label each apple type, with other fruits and shoppers visible in the background.

This week was super busy!

What's Happening

This week was super busy. We left Chicago yesterday and headed out to the mountains of Colorado for the week. So, this week was spent getting ready to leave.

What that meant was getting the dogs in a good place for us to leave, which wasn't as easy as it sounds. While we have been dealing with Walt, who has had digestive issues for the past two months, Poppy decided she was also going to get sick this week.

I ended up taking Walt to a holistic vet. I used to take our prior dog to a holistic vet to help with digestive issues and anxiety problems. This new vet bought their practice. I loved her, and she got Walt started on a protocol that is working.

With Poppy getting sick twice this week, I ended up at a vet three times. That's a lot.

We are soooo ready for a quick vacation! Today is the farmer's market near our place in Colorado and it's one of the largest markets, including an art fair, in Colorado. It's a favorite and I will share more about it in upcoming Sunday emails.

I also spent a couple of days working on things I needed to do for the reno that is starting when I get back. I think I nailed about 80% of what I need to do. I can't wait to show you my new office when it is finished! I'm so excited!

I filmed four new recipes that you will see in upcoming weeks. I've been hard at work on recipes for the upcoming holidays in September and October as well as finishing up all of the summer produce recipes that I am so exited to share with you!

  • I have been saying this since the kids were little! Handwriting matters.
  • Do you ever wonder when you should throw out your spices? My rule of thumb has always been 6 months or if the smell and look has changed.
  • Our kids will tell you that we were always big on positive affirmations. Here are a few for you!
  • How to use up leftover pickle brine. Genius.
  • A summer reading list. How many have you read?
  • This Bissell machine saved my tush this past week with the dogs being sick!
  • I love this color on this cup and I put it into my cart.
  • I've talked about this Dash machine before, but it's a go-to for lunch.
