Temptation Tuesday
Men in kilts
This week’s men in kilts post features an oiled up, liquored smoking hunk. The bad boy cliche is a little overdone in my opinion but one can’t deny he has a great body and seems to be rocking the kilt.
Netflix and chill: What you watching
As we all hunker down and do our best to help flatten the curve, I’m putting my weekly “what’s happening” post on hiatus and suggesting a prolonged “Netflix-and-Chill” approach while we ride out COVID-19. Below I’ve shared some of the programming I watched this week. Share what you’re watching in the comments section. I’d welcome your suggestions.
This week I watched:
Spencer Confidential Netflix film starringMark Wahlberg The movie is entertaining if you like the police detective genre.
Fourth Man Out is a comedy about a 24 year old mechanic who finally comes out to his best friends. It’s cute and funny and was a good 90-minute escape.
The Great British Baking Show (Season 5) w/ Mary Berry and Paul Hollywood. I can’t seem to get into the newer episodes w/ Prue Leith replacing Mary Berry as a judge and the new hosts Noel Fielding and Sandi Toksvig just don’t seem as fun to watch as Sue Perkins and Mel Giedrovc.
What have you been watching? Leave a few suggestions in the comments section for me and other readers who may be looking for something new to watch.
Saturday morning coffee
This handsome, all-American looking guy makes that coffee and bagel look even more delicious this morning.

Temptation Tuesday
This week Temptation Tuesday happens to fall on St. Patrick’s Day so I couldn’t help but share a photo of this tempting Leprechaun in his Cape Cod short shorts.
Men in kilts
These two University of Edinburgh students seem to be quite comfortable in their kilts. I’m just curious why they are standing beside what appears to be a stripper pole.
What to do this week: March 16-22
When phrases like “social distancing” and “flattening the curve” become a part of our vernacular and are trending on social media, you know that something is up.
Many meetings, events and programs last week made last minute decisions to cancel so I’m going to take a hiatus from publishing events this week and suggest a prolonged “Netflix-n-Chill” approach while we ride out COVID-19.
Below you’ll find an easy to follow guide on how to wash your hands since that seems to be among the best ways to prevent the spread. For more information about symptoms related to Coronavirus, visit this CDC site.
Five Steps to Wash Your Hands the Right Way
- Wet your hands with clean, running water (warm or cold), turn off the tap, and apply soap.
- Lather your hands by rubbing them together with the soap. Lather the backs of your hands, between your fingers, and under your nails.
- Scrub your hands for at least 20 seconds. Need a timer? Hum the “Happy Birthday” song from beginning to end twice.
- Rinse your hands well under clean, running water.
- Dry your hands using a clean towel or air dry them.
