Welcome to Tuesday morning Tidbits, everyone! I hope you all enjoyed your holiday weekend and now that all the kids are back to school, it feels like summer is officially over — acckksss! Well, I’m not letting go yet because these fabulous sliders are the answer for a fun summer burger without all the fat and calories.

Kathy from Healthy. Happy. Home. has created a spicy, vegan burger that will convert even the most die-hard carnivore! Aren’t these just the cutest sliders you’ve ever seen?

You’ve eaten your healthy slider, worked out hard to keep those brain cells performing to the max and now it’s time to find the perfect spot to relax and read your favourite book. Here is a site that shares some beautiful places to do just that.
Oh my, isn’t that just the best!? A glass of wine and a tasty appetizer and you would have a hard time getting me to leave!
From very rustic to plush – which would you prefer? Click here or on the pics to see more.
Or perhaps you would like to find a spot under a beautiful tree to while away a couple of hours. If you love trees, here is a gorgeous collection of some of the most famous ones on our planet.
Some consider this to be the most beautiful tree in the world. I have to say, I have never seen anything like it. Spectacular!
I found this collection of HILARIOUS ANSWERS from CHILDREN to QUESTIONS about LOVE. Too cute!
What Is The Proper Age To Get Married
“Eighty-four. Because at that age, you don’t have to work anymore, and you can spend all your time loving each other in your bedroom.” (Judy, 8)
“Once I’m done with kindergarten, I’m going to find me a wife.” (Tommy, 5)
What Do Most People Do On A Date?
“On the first date, they just tell each other lies, and that usually gets them interested enough to go for a second date.” (Mike, 10)
When Is It Okay To Kiss Someone
“Never kiss in front of other people. It’s a big embarrassing thing if anybody sees you. But if nobody sees you, I might be willing to try it with a handsome boy, but just for a few hours.” (Kally, 9)
Is It Better To Be Single Or Married?
“It’s better for girls to be single, but not for boys. Boys need somebody to clean up after them.” (Lynette, 9)
“It gives me a headache to think about that stuff. I’m just a kid. I don’t need that kind of trouble.” (Kenny, 7)
Concerning Why Love Happens Between Two People
“No one is sure why it happens, but I heard it has something to do with how you smell. That’s why perfume and deodorant are so popular.” (Jan, 9)
“I think you’re supposed to get shot with an arrow or something, but the rest of it isn’t supposed to be so painful.” (Harlen, 8)
In this age of the endless barrage of selfies, I thought that I had seen it all until this collection of people going to extraordinary lengths to take extreme pics. And until now, I didn’t think I was afraid of heights…..
and it seems that everyone wants to get in on the picture!

September 2, 2014 at 5:09 amGOOD MORNING ROBYN!
This was a GREAT post to get me ready to go back to school today. Yesterday was our Labor Day and we had it off. WOW, from those sliders to what children say, to how to keep from going insane – all of this was FANTASTIC! Oh, I’ve been to Japan, and the cherry blossoms are magical to see. I’ve never seen a wisteria tree, however.
Well my friend, you made my day! Off to work I go….Anita

So glad you popped in before your work day. Love to you, friend. xoxo

I am with you, holding on to the last of summer while she is on her way out. And the place with the dusty piles of books and water just beyond the door? I will meet you there! Have a wonderful week Robyn.
