Good-morning! How was your weekend? We spent our time quietly at home doing pretty much nothing other than relaxing in front of the TV. I made cheeseburger style pizza for the first time using the same pizza dough and pizza sauce recipes <—link to recipes] with my supreme-style version. The result was good. A few tweaks are needed before I share the how-tos. I plan to give it another try this weekend. 😉
It’s time to do a quick recap of last week’s BoTB. The voting process started off really strong for Jennifer Rush. I began to think it was going to be a very lopsided battle but then Vinyl Hotel picked up a few votes and before long the tally was tied. The votes continued with another wave putting VH ahead and once again the count evened out on both sides. Finally, the last few voters stopped by pushing Jennifer ahead of the game by one vote and then on Saturday another vote came through ending this battle in a deadlock.
To refresh your memory this is how you voted.
Jennifer – Sandee, Debbie, Amy, Tom, Mary, Birgit, & Stephen
Vinyl Hotel – John, Lee, Mimi, Myke, Eugenia, CW, & Mike
Special thanks to everyone who participated. Look for my next battle Monday, March 15th.
Marie’s computer/technology saga continues and this is the main reason for her absences last week. She’s not sure when she’ll be back. Her kids got her a computer as a belated Christmas present. The daughter who’s a nurse and finance plan to bring it to her hopefully next month. She said her future son-in-law is going to get her going. She’s so excited, too. Anyway, she makes her apologizes and told me to let you know she’ll try to pop in on folks when she can. We miss you, girlie! 😘
Over the past few months, we’ve been watching the documentary series on Apple TV+, “Long Way Round”, “Long Way Down”, and the last one, “Long Way Up”. The theme song carries the same melody but the lyrics take a slight change with each season. I really liked the band’s sound so much that I wanted to hear more of their stuff. I was actually shocked to find they have quite the discography. Today is your choice on Monday’s Music Moves Me, so I felt this was a great time to share my discovery of the U.K. band Stereophonics with ya!
I skipped all over Stereophonics YouTube channel sampling songs from many of their album playlists and I pulled the first songs that grabbed my ear.
The Long Way Round series was fun to watch. What made the show entertaining is the two fellas making the journey, Ewen McGregor and Charley Boorman. What I learned is you don’t have to be a motorcyclist enthusiast to like the production and I got to see travel around the world with them all from the comfort of my sofa.

This is a mewsic linky party. Every other week we have a suggested mewsic theme (see side menu) to build your song set around and all participants share YouTube or Vimeo videos for our mewsic enthusiasts. Failure to meet this basic guideline puts your URL in danger of being removed or labeled – NO MUSIC.
Yesterday was the 98th anniversary of my late FIL birth. He’s hard to believe it’s been three years since he joined his wife in heaven. I’m sure they had a good time celebrating in paradise,though. While I don’t see him as the rock n’ roll kind of fella in his youth, I could be wrong. That’s something I never asked him and I wish I had now, so I’m going to close things out with a song from 1946, the year he turned 23, “Choo Choo Ch’boogie’ by Louis Jordan. Have a boogietastic week! X💋X💋, Cathy
