Hello! It’s mid-month, a time I often like to follow the lead of Modern Mrs. Darcy and share quick reviews of what I’ve been reading. A word about these reviews: I generally don’t finish books I don’t like so if a book makes this report I was at least interested enough to read to the end. […]

Like you I’m sure, I was heartbroken and angered by the murder of George Floyd. And I’ve been frustrated that the events that have followed have created even more division in our already severely divided country.

I’ve actually found books to be a much-needed distraction right now. I’ve been reading books, reading about books, buying books, and basically doing […]

Happy Friday! I hope you had a good week. The sun is shining here and we’re headed to an outdoor, socially distant happy hour with some good friends tonight. It should be a good day.

Pre-Pinterest Style
April 27, 2020 Filed Under: House & Home
While cleaning out the cabinet in my office this weekend, I came across a file folder with magazine clippings that I had saved from pre-Pinterest days. The dates on the pages ranged from 2007-2009 and I was surprised at how un-dated they felt, all things considering. I snapped pics of my favorites to share with […]
