Random 5 Friday
1. We had brunch at a friends house on Sunday. What could be better than the shrieks of dads and kids participating in some good old fashioned play?!

3. Have you ever wondered about what your favorite ice cream says about you? This is a fun little article.
4. Here is a very thought provoking article about being too busy, and why we do it. Shouldn't we all strive for this dream “leisure . . . will be abundant, so that all can develop the life of the spirit, of reflection, of religion, of the arts, of the full realization of the good things of the world.” Dwight D. Eisenhower
5. Speaking of dreams, today on the first full day of spring sixteen years ago, I married mine.

ReplyDeleteAll that sap has got to be exciting - we aren't set up this year to give it a go, but my husband is paying close attention to conditions, we've dropped back down to below freezing days, so he doesn't think the sap would quite be running good here.
Good for you guys!
Being "too busy" is something I have strong feelings about (particularly as a parent) - I love that quote & will have to check out the article. I've written a little about it myself quite a while back, here: http://ourfunwithfive.blogspot.com/2009/01/ive-suffered-blogging-lull.html
Shrieks of good old fashioned play are always good!! Have a great weekend.
