Friday Top Five

I decided to start doing a weekly Friday Top Five to have a place to talk about all of the random bookish nonsense I get up to during the week.

I have another book to give away! Check it out here!

1) Back In The Kitchen

One of my 2020 goals was to read and cook from 20 new to me cookbooks. Well, you can guess how that’s been going. Lately though my library has re-opened and my garden has been going nuts so I gave a recipe from The Adventurous Eaters Club a try. (Adding cucumbers because I picked 7 of them from my garden just yesterday alone.) It was simple and good! I liked the cookbook too although I think it’s meant more for families with pre-school aged kids.

2) Fireside reading

Finally, finally it is cool enough to enjoy my back yard again.

3) Louise Penny + Hillary Clinton???!!!

When I first read about this online event from Politics and Prose I thought it was some sort of dream. I went back the next day, and no, it’s real Hillary Clinton is interviewing Louise Penny on Sep. 1 when her new book comes out. I’ll be there! (By there I mean here, watching it on my phone.)

4) Fall Cleaning

Don’t you love it when your books are all organized and pretty? I finally got around to cleaning mine up.

5) Writing in Books

I started my next read for the Litsy Markup Postal Book Club (#LMPBC) Writing in books seems so wrong, but these postal book clubs are so fun! I love to see everyone’s notes at the end.
