    I'm trying to re-do my bucket list -- consider things you want to learn,
    hobbies you want to try,
    places you want to see,
    books you want to read,
    things you want to learn (astronomy? cooking? basket weaving?)
    activities (like bungee jumping or skydiving) you want to experience,
    letters you want to write (before it's too late)
    people you want to acknowledge or appreciate,
    outdoor adventures you want to try,
    animals or nature (trees, mountains, rivers etc) you want to experience/hold/feed/raise/ see up close,
    concerts or musical events or conferences/conventions you want to be part of/attend,
    relationships you want to form/mend/strengthen,
    geneology or family photos you want to preserve/research/share,
    what do you want to share with the next generation,
    think back on things you regret you said "no" to and say "yes" to them now if possible,
    take 'dreams' that are no longer possible and reframe them to fit your life now (you maybe can't become a ballerina but you could take a few lessons or attend a ballet or sponsor a child's lessons)
    think of at least one thing that would be super-cool (be in a commercial? write an article for a magazine? meet some famous person? take a trip to Fiji? something momentous for your life and make it a priority emoticon emoticon

    So many. Just so many. Do you like to travel?

    I am in the works here on wiring a travel blog. Lots of bucket list destinations.

    Do you mean more activity related?
    I’d love to run just one marathon in my lifetime.
    I want to make a Century ride on my bike.

    Or more hobby oriented?
    Learn a (or another) foreign language?
    Sew a quilt?
    Build a greenhouse?

    You’ve really got me fired up today thinking about bucket list things. Places. Dreams. Goals.
    Woohoo! Share what you come up with.

    That's great that you're working on your bucket list and plans for the future.
    One place on my bucket list that I have not yet visited is Niagara Falls. Wondering now if I'll ever get there...
    I especially enjoy visiting the areas around Santa Fe and Taos, New Mexico.

    Agree w/ROBEC4175 . . . . Yosemite and the Grand Canyon are two must sees. AND Yellowstone.

Day 1, again: Blogging 100 days Challenge; New Moon (Gemini)

Image
  So my last blogging challenge was interrupted by Covid, as I was an early Covid prepper (& irritated with those here who were in active and vocal denial, though I've gotten over that anger, which was my own maladaptive and non-compassionate response). I've been back, off and on, and off, but have mostly been engaged with and following my Spark plan, though I haven't always logged my food and my movement, lately. So I'm restarting this blogging challenge, with the New Moon, (Friday@1:39 EDT in loquacious Gemini.

Almond Macaro(o)ns

 Not exactly macaroons (which I think of as coconut) nor the recently trendy macarons (which are almond based, but more fussy?) these are more like the latter. Had an expired box of Solo almond paste, so needed to use it up...this recipe is from the back of the box, with 1 change: maraschino cherries are now cherries from canned cherry pie filling. Ingredients: 8 oz Solo Almond Paste 1 egg white 0.5 C sugar 5 oz Cherry Pie Filling (18 cherries) Direc tio ns: Preheat oven to 325F In food processor, break up almond paste, then process, add sugar & process, then add egg white and process for 2 min  (that basically seemed unnec...probly 20 sec was enough...but I followed the directions); Divide into 18 and roll balls (/pipe into stars) onto silicone-lined (silpat) sheet. Flatten & press thumb into it; place a cherry into each thumbprint, trying not to get much of the filling. Bake for 20 min on rack in middle of oven, then another 8 min on higher rack to brown Turned out k...
