๐ Hi Sweet Friends - It's a blessing to share the next hour with you. The angels and I are here to help you drift off to sleep or go about your day. Whenever you choose to listen, we're glad you're here! ๐๐ค
For Storytime, let's invoke the comfort of good food as we peruse the pages of another community cookbook. In this episode, we are honoring the women of the Christian Mothers Society in Vesta, Minnesota. Their book is named "Favorite Home Tested Recipes" and it was published in 1946. You'll hear about yummy pie recipes and much more. I just love these women and the heart they brought to the food they made for their families and communities.

Then we'll flip through the pages of Trader Joe's Fall 2024 Frequent Flyer for their autumnal delights (my new favorite words found in the FF). Pumpkin Spice options are plentiful here!

๐ Hi Beautiful Friends - Thank you SO much for tuning in to this episode. The angels are weaving beautiful waves of love into this broadcast for you. ๐๐ค
For Storytime, we are exploring the goodness found in the pages of community cookbook, A Culinary Treasure from Temple Beth Hillel Sisterhood of North Hollywood (now Valley Village), CA. Originally published in 1949, I believe the copy I have is from the 1950s. As always, I provide ample editorial about my own food-inspired memories (including the deliciousness of shortbread) with you. Truly a "sweet" way to fall asleep.

Hi Sweet Ones- I really had hoped to record a new episode for you this week, but life had other plans. But I have a really wonderful episode incubating for you that I'll publish soon. In the meanwhile, enjoy this replay of episode #104 where you'll hear about the wonderous gift my husband has for antiquing. Thank you for listening! With Love, Laurel
Cozy on up as you receive beautiful waves of love from your beautiful team of angels who love you so! Then Laurel takes you for a companionable wander through her weekend's activities. Nothing big or fancy, just an ordinary few days. Their big excursion for the weekend involved prowling through local antique stores searching for community cookbooks for Laurel's collection.

๐ Hello Beautiful Friends. Thank you for joining me for episode 277 of Sleepy Bedtime Blessings.
We begin with lots of love and soothing energies for you from the angels to help you drift off to sleep.๐บ For storytime, one of your favorites! We are flipping through another TV Guide. This time we're traveling back to 1983. The cover of this issue features Greg and Jenny and Erika Kane from All My Children. If you were watching AMC back then (the soap, not the network), then you'll well remember the iconic star-crossed couple and Jenny's demise on an exploding jet ski. I'll also be sharing with you several cringe-worthy diet ads that reflect why so many of us thought it possible to lose 10 pounds in two days (Umm.... yeah... no...). God bless those moments, right? Thank goodness for our ability to evolve consciousness!
Storytime starts at 14:27
And as always, if youโre looking to deepen your connection with the angels or find a bit more joy and "delight" in your everyday, my Earth Angels Oracle deck is here to help. You can find it here: https://www.drivethrucards.com/product/437560/The-Earth-Angels-Oracle-Tarot-Size.

๐Hi Beautiful Friends - Thank you for allowing me the blessing of keeping you company in this episode #275 of Sleepy Bedtime Blessings. ๐๐ค
In this episode I share with you the simplicity of a beautiful spiritual principle of, "Energy goes where attention flows," that I first learned while reading the book, Mastering Your Hidden Self, by Serge Kahali King.
๐ช Get ready to peruse the August 2024 Frequent Flyer from Trader Joes. Yes, another much loved item has been discontinued. Sigh. However, there are many delicious items still to contemplate. I'll also share with you my present obsession of mochi muffins from Third Culture Bakery in Berkeley, CA.

๐ Hi Dear Ones - Yay! I'm back with a new episode for you! Of course, the angels are infusing this broadcast with waves of love to help soothe you into a lovely space of rest. ๐๐ค
Our Storytime is inspired by another community cookbook. This one was published in 1948 by the Duluth Section of the National Council of Jewish Women. Lots of wonderful nostalgic recipes for you. And I'll also weave in how I'm being influenced by Logan on TikTok into making cucumber salads (because "sometimes you need to eat a whole cucumber") and Bethenny Frankel's favorite Nescafe Instant Iced Coffee.

๐ธ Hello Beautiful Friends! Welcome to episode 138 of Sleepy Bedtime Blessings! I am your host Laurel Bleadon-Maffei and in this episode, the angels bring forth a beautiful infusion of light to help you connect with the quality of self-love and the magic in your soul.For storytime, we take a stroll down memory lane and flip through the pages of TV Guide from January 1963.

For our storytime, we'll take a whimsical journey back to 1914-ish as we flip through the pages of a charming vintage Jell-O marketing pamphlet.

Of course, we begin with lots of love from the angels for you. They also bring us a sweet reminder to release energies that are not ours to carry. I'll also share with you about the "Angel Buffer" the angels taught me about in service to keeping our energy fields clearer.
Then for storytime, I'm sharing with you a few random childhood memories including a neighbor's tree that served as our rocket ship to the moon and subliminal messaging I received as a child about not winning too much at bingo. It's a sweet journey and I hope it provides you with a gentle space to unwind and fall asleep.

Hello Beautiful Friends-
In celebration of the life of Richard Simmons, I'm guided to post a replay of the episode I recorded in 2022 as a love note of gratitude for him. Richard was one of the first people who made it welcoming for people of size to Sweat to the Oldies. For years I attended his gym, Slimmons, in Beverly Hills. This is my sweet tribute to someone who was a champion and voice of love for so many.
During our angel time, we also explore what it is to be incarnated as an Earth Angel and spread more love in this world. This feels very apropos in celebration of Richard's legacy.
Rest in Peace, Richard. Thank you for all the love and kindness you shared with us over the years.
