Sometimes it feels like it takes an act of Congress for Friday to arrive, but lo and behold, it’s here. As I write this post, I have already had a glass of wine and some delicious desserts. The reading is soon to commence along with a second...
Hey Bookworms, happy almost Friday. This is the second installment of Something Old, Something New. Two books. Something I’ve read (old) and something I haven’t (new). I have way too many books. I’m not complaining at all, simply stating a fact. I only keep what I’ve...

The weekend. These might be two of the best words. Even if I'm just sitting at home, which is most weekends, it should still be celebrated with wine, dessert, and copious amounts of reading. I have a funny story that happened about a year or so...
