Right now I am: Taking a moment before brunch and then heading out to the theatre with the family. We are going to see Dragons and Mythical Beasts at the Orpheum. Very excited for the show!

On my bedside table: Babel by R.F. Huang; Take My Hand by Dolen Perkins-Valdez

On my tv this week: We’re continuing our rewatch of His Dark Materials to get to season 3. In fact, we got to season 3 this week and it’s so so good! We should finish this week.

What I am creating: Nothing really. I wanted to get to my December Daily album, but all I managed to do was print the photos.

My simple pleasures: A good book, extra tissues, a comfy pillow

Looking around the house: I made the boys do a big pick up yesterday, so it’s looking decent. My next house task is to remove the baker’s rack that’s currently being used as my homeschool supply storage area.

From the camera: We went to the Asian Market this week to try some snacks and ended up buying so many things! It’s probably good that I only go once every 4 months. My freezer and cabinets cannot handle the goodies. Those sesame balls were fresh and still warm when I bought them! So good!
