As I look outside my window:

Right now I am:

Thinking and pondering:

On my bedside table: Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo; A Woman of Intelligence by Karin Tanabe

On my tv this week: Nothing super exciting, just the usual current shows and ongoing shows (Hustle, Star Trek: Voyager).

Listening to: I’m finally catching up on my back episodes of Dungeons and Daddies. Plus I’m trying to keep up with my usual podcasts.

On the menu for this week:

• Monday - Blackberry Bacon Grilled Cheese

• Tuesday - Pineapple BBQ Chicken

• Wednesday - Blackened Salmon

• Thursday - Leftovers

• Friday - Peanut Sauce Chicken with Broccoli Rice Bowls

• Saturday - Mosterdseop

• Sunday - Pesto Stuffed Shells

On my to do list: I need to make a few appointments. I imagine that I need to make a bit more progress on my big projects (Road trip and Bookish retreat). I also need to update my big brain dump list.

Happening this week:

• Monday - Grocery Day

• Tuesday - Field Trip to Fontenelle Forest

• Wednesday - Dentist for Me

• Thursday - Coop

• Friday - Home day

• Saturday - Home day

• Sunday - Home day

What I am creating: I hope that I can finish one or two bookish retreat crafts this week. No peeks, but I have some good ideas.

My simple pleasures: Alton Brown’s Blueberry Muffins (so friggin’ good), space adventures, cooler temperatures

Looking around the house: Blergh. My laundry room is out of control. Guess what I’m doing today…

From the camera: Yummy ice cream after book club. I got a scoop of lavender lemon and a scoop of mango raspberry habanero. So good!
