Right now I am: Eating breakfast (lemon poppy seed muffin and coffee) and getting ready to leave for a trip to Arthur's favorite brunch place (Black Bear Diner) and a visit to the Pacific Pinball Museum.

On my bedside table: Chimera by Mira Grant

On my tv this week: J and I didn't watch too much tv this week. I did catch the latest episode of The Bachelorette. We finished Ken Burn's The Roosevelts. For movie night, we picked Rampage. Way more entertaining than it should have been.

Listening to: Mostly podcasts. I caught up on What Should I Read Next and listened to more back episodes of Lore.

On the menu for this week:

• Monday - Out at The Fish Market
• Tuesday - Tacos and Black Bean Soup
• Wednesday - Out probably
• Thursday - Avocado Bruschetta Chicken
• Friday - Sausage, Potato, and Spinach Soup
• Saturday - Hot Dogs and Brats on the Grill

On my to do list: Not much due to family being in town. We're just focused on having a good week.

Happening this week:

• Monday - Stinson Beach Visit

What I am creating: Not much, but I might slip in some crafting time here and there this week.

My simple pleasures: Q snuggles, lemon poppy seed muffins (my fave!), good weather
