Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl invited us to share our top ten “dynamic duos” this week. I can think of a few ways to interpret this. I decided I didn’t want to feature romantic couples; that’s a post for another day. I decided to feature best friends instead. You know, those ride-or-dies who will do anything for each other. But […]
Welcome to my weekly update for February 20, 2022! We went to the Charles Pinckney National Historic Site yesterday. Charles Pinckney was “a principal author and signer of the United States Constitution” according to the NPS website. He was very active in the Constitutional Convention and contributed roughly 28 clauses to the final document, some […]
Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl invited us to share ten books too good to review properly this week (A topic suggested by Dedra at A Book Wanderer). That topic didn’t really speak to me, since it felt like I would just end up listing my favorite books again. I veered just a bit off topic and decided to list ten excellent books […]
Welcome to my weekly update for February 13, 2022! Happy Super Bowl Sunday! Or, if I have any fellow fans of What We Do in the Shadows out there, Happy Superb Owl Sunday! I’m honestly just here for the food but my husband will be watching and vaguely rooting for the Bengals. I spent a […]
Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl prompted us to post about our own topic pertaining to love this week. I tried to think of something a little off the beaten path. The obvious choices to me are favorite romances, book crushes, or book couples. But when I think of love I think of my sweet […]
Welcome to my weekly update for February 6, 2022! Today is my dad’s birthday so we were able to go home to Asheville to spend the day with him. Happy birthday, Daddy! A few weeks ago I found myself pretty close to Sullivan’s Island while running some errands. It was a beautiful weekday morning so […]
Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl invited us to share ten books with names in the titles. This one was pretty easy!
Welcome to my monthly wrap-up for January 2022! This is the first monthly wrap-up post I’ve written. I’m a little worried that it will overlap too much with my weekly update posts but there are some things I include there that would work better here. We shall see. I like the idea of the monthly […]
Welcome to my weekly update for January 30, 2022! My mom loves reading all of your comments on my blog and she thanks you for the birthday wishes last week. She asked me to post this picture that summarizes how we deal with snow/ice in the south. Pay attention to the headline on the bottom. […]
Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl invited us to share ten “New-to-Me Authors I Read in 2021.” I tend to bounce around a lot of new authors (I am terrible at finishing a book series!) so I “discovered” a lot of new ones last year. In fact, I just checked my Top Ten Books of […]
Welcome to my weekly update for January 23, 2022! This has been a low key week. Last weekend was cool and rainy here in Charleston. Back home in Asheville, they did get that 8+” of snow in the forecast so we’re glad we cancelled that trip. As I prep this post on Thursday night, we’re […]
