Celebrate Your Story! #191
CELEBRATE YOUR STORY! LINK PARTY
Welcome back to Celebrate Your Story! We spent the weekend in Boston visiting my stepson. We went to the Boston Children’s Museum and the New England Aquarium. It was hot and crowded, but we had a great time. My daughter especially loved the penguins at the aquarium. The highlight for me was having dinner at The Cheesecake Factory for the first time! I brought a slice back to the hotel room and ate it in bed. Now that’s what I call being on vacation!
My pick’s for this week are a celebration of summer decor and food.
Debra from Common Ground styled this lovely vignette inside a vintage seed box. I love the vintage seed packets, bee skeps, pottery and rusty garden utensils.
This simple summer salad with fresh berries, red onion and goat cheese looks so good! It’s inspired by a salad that Lynne from My Family Thyme had at one of her favorite restaurants on Martha’s Vineyard!
This beautiful nautical wreath was created by Debbee of Debbee’s Buzz. She provides great step by step instructions so you can make one too!
Our most clicked link of the week is this absolutely gorgeous blue and white tablescape by Jennifer from Celebrating Everyday Life. I love how she gave it a summer vibe by adding pieces of coral, bamboo flatware and jute placemats.
Thank you to everyone for sharing, and congratulations to all of the featured bloggers! I had so much fun reading your posts and discovering new to me blogs. Don’t forget to link up your new posts to have a chance to be featured next week at Celebrate Your Story!
Benita, we’re going to miss you! I hope you can return as a co-host of CYS when things slow down a bit!

Sounds like a fun-filled trip to Boston, Rebecca. Thank you so much for featuring my Martha’s Vineyard inspired summer salad! We just visited MV this past week and of course, visited the Among the Flowers restaurant! Wishing you a wonderful week ahead!! 🙂
I’m so glad you got to visit the Vineyard this summer, Lynne. I know it’s one of your favorite places! I’m definitely going to try making your salad. Hope you have a great week too!
Thank you for hosting. Serving this week 7-22- to 7-26. On Tuesday is a colorful Mediterranean Salad. On Wednesday is a Southern House Salad with Bacon Dressing that my grandma used to serve. And finally on Friday is a Grapefruit Avocado Salad complete with Pomegranate and a Honey Lemon Dressing.
Mmmm, sounds great Marilyn! Thanks for joining the party each week!
Rebecca, I was delighted to see my sailboat wreath featured — thanks so much! Always fun weekend visiting family and checking out local area as you did. We were home but went to Pittsburgh’s hot new Picklesburgh weekend it was a hoot, or a big “dill” LOL!
You’re so welcome Debbee! I love that wreath! My stepson went to Pitt, so I’ve been to Pittsburg several times. The Picklesburgh weekend sounds fun! There’s never a shortage of things to do during the summer!
