OMG Worthy Reads Series
OMG Worthy Reads, Week 19
In this week’s worthy reads tour Tom Brady’s home, say cheers with a new cocktail, discover the meaning behind common sayings & roses, plus hip mason jars.
Warmer temperatures arrived in Columbus over the weekend (almost 60 degrees) and the majority of our snow has melted. I still enjoyed some time by the fireplace with my laptop and found some Worthy Reads for you. Here is the best of what I found around the web this weekend.
Hip Mason Jars
I have always loved small packages and these small containers of food are right up my ally. The presentation of food in these mason jars are appearing all over the country from New York to Vegas. USA Today had a feature in their travel section, Mason jar meals: Dishes, desserts and drinks gone hipster. Check it out and you may get some ideas for entertaining in your own home. If interested, here is a link to similar jars on Amazon.
11 Common Expressions and What They Really Mean
Do you know why we say such things as Pitch Black, Beat Around the Bush or Rule of Thumb? Yahanna with Mashable shared a list of 11 Expressions Still in Use Today and the real meaning behind them. I was shocked at the origin of “A rule of thumb”.
The Meaning of Every Rose Color
Harper’s Bazaar shared The Meaning of Every Rose Color in a recent article. We all know that red roses stand for love but do you know what pink, white, yellow and purple roses mean?
Celebrity Home Tour
Thanks to Architectural Digest you can tour the Los Angeles home of Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen. It’s my favorite of all the homes we have toured so far on OMG Worthy Reads. Which of the 31 pictures is your favorite?
