Ten On Tuesday

March 24, 2009 By Carole

It’s been a while since I’ve done a Ten on Tuesday post.  The themes just haven’t hit me for a few weeks but this week?  This week is a topic I can get behind.

10 Things You Like Doing on Vacation

beach_umbrella1

1. Going to the beach.

2. Knitting at the beach.

3. Drinking at the beach.

4. Taking pictures at the beach.  Are you sensing a theme here?

5. Eating lobster after a day at the beach.

6. Walking on the beach.

7. Watching the sunset at the beach.

8. Going to the beach at night and seeing the moonlight dance on the water.

9. Finding shells, sea glass and other treasures at the beach.

10. Visiting, talking, and laughing.  At the beach.

In case you didn’t know – I love the beach!

    i think that my boy would agree with you. he has never been to the beach. but he says that he likes it and it is the only thing that he can talk about!

    You should see my beach. We have one of the nicest beaches on Lake Michigan, tons of soft CLEAN sand and sandy bottom in the lake.

  9. Judy says

    March 24, 2009 at 8:11 am

    I love the beach also – there is nothing like the warm sun!

  10. Chris says

    March 24, 2009 at 8:13 am

    LOL! Sounds especially wonderful right now.

  11. Wool Winder says

    March 24, 2009 at 8:37 am

    I wasn’t a fan of the beach until recently, but now it’s my favorite place to be. We go nearly every weekend.

  12. Jewel says

    March 24, 2009 at 8:48 am

    That all sounds really good to me!

  13. Mary K. in Rockport says

    Your photo is a little blast of warmth and hope on this cold, cold spring day in NE.

    Love the colors in that umbrella!! And, um, why yes! I know you love the beach!
    (If I hadn’t known before this post!)
    lololol!
    (((hugs)))

  15. Beth says

    March 24, 2009 at 9:09 am

    Ah, the beach! If I had to pick, the mountains would be my favorite place, with the beach being a close, close second.

  16. Donna says

    March 24, 2009 at 9:27 am

    Sounds good to me! Any plans for a vacation at the beach soon ????

  17. mai says

    March 24, 2009 at 9:28 am

    i am so looking forward to a relaxing beach weekend this summer!

  18. Nora says

    March 24, 2009 at 9:28 am

    😉 Reminds me of that game you play with the fortunes in fortune cookies – except you say “at the beach” after you read each one!

  19. Teresa C says

    March 24, 2009 at 9:38 am

    Hee, I’ll meet you there the second the weather is right.

  20. LittleWit says

    I would like to go to the beach right now. Alas, I must work.

  21. Danielle says

    March 24, 2009 at 11:10 am

    That sounds like a great vacation plan. Can I stow away in your luggage? I’ll bring the tequila!

  22. Hillary says

    March 24, 2009 at 12:03 pm

    Oh to be at the beach. One of my favorite things too.

  23. Julie says

    March 24, 2009 at 12:06 pm

    Why doesn’t this list surprise me? I’ve written a very similar one 🙂

  24. Patty says

    March 24, 2009 at 12:10 pm

    Let’s go! 🙂

  25. Stephanie says

    March 24, 2009 at 12:42 pm

    Thanks for clearing that up. Until the last sentence, I wasn’t sure if you actually liked the beach! 🙂

  26. Estella says

    March 24, 2009 at 12:50 pm

    You just described how I spend my summer…makes me itch for warmer days. The one thing I haven’t done yet is knit on the beach. Something about sunscreen getting on the fiber concerns me. However, my kids are older now so maybe I can give it a whirl.

  27. Kathy says

    March 24, 2009 at 1:09 pm

    Me too!!

  28. sue says

  29. Sara says

    March 24, 2009 at 2:56 pm

    Your list is all about the beach – and mine is all about food! What can I say!!!

    Great photo!! And, I do love the beach – but, rarely vacation at it. Guess that comes from living in florida for so long.

  30. Cookie says

    March 24, 2009 at 3:01 pm

    So…

    You like the beach, huh? ;^)

  31. Zen says

    March 24, 2009 at 3:22 pm

    Great list. It sounds so relaxing. I played as well. By the way, you have some beautiful knit pieces.

  32. lolly says

    March 24, 2009 at 4:35 pm

    Oh, this is cute!
    I wish I was at the beach right now!

  33. jill says

    March 24, 2009 at 6:20 pm

    I love all things beach-y, even the taste of sand in my PBJ!

  34. JessaLu says

    March 24, 2009 at 8:06 pm

    You’re making me miss the beach… ;o)

  35. Barbara says

    March 24, 2009 at 9:44 pm

    Me too!!! I love the beach–there is no place in the world better than a wonderful beach.

    I wish I were on a beach right now. We got 9 inches of snow yesterday 🙁

  36. Leslie says

    March 30, 2009 at 12:17 pm

    Me, too! The beach is the place to be.

If there’s one thing the pandemic has been good If there’s one thing the pandemic has been good for, it’s my sourdough game. I actually started learning about making sourdough bread a week before the stay at home orders thanks to @sprboston as he shared his starter and recipe and technique with me. Since then I have kept Mama Cass fed and alive and have baked many loaves of bread. This one might be my best one yet. I did the final proof in the fridge for 24 hours and baked it from its cold state. Great spring and ear and crumb, it was delicious with dinner tonight. #sourdough #sourdoughbread #lookatthatcrumb #lookatthatear #homebakedbread #imadeitmyself #homemadeisbest
