Four days into February, and it’s the perfect day to reflect on my favorite moments from January!  Can’t really go anywhere, since THIS happened yesterday: Read more

Yep!  While we’re all deep into December and Christmas, I’m taking some time to look back at my November.  I actually started putting this post together on the last day of November, while I was at the doctor’s office getting Moh’s surgery. Read more

Oh, my!  Time waits for no man (or woman)!  I started this post on November 8th, got sidetracked, and am just now getting it completed…10 days later.  Ugh.  October gave me many happy memories, though, so it’s important to me to look back and be thankful for those moments.  A lot of the time my favorites are all about people and events, but this month I have some products that I love in there, too.  So let’s get to it!

I’m so excited about sharing this post today!  If you’ve landed here from Bettye’s blog, Fashionschlub, welcome!  And if you’ve arrived here some other way, welcome to you, too!  This is the third fall in a row that I’ve joined this blog hop hosted by Leslie from Onceuponatimehappilyeverafter!  I’m sharing a tried and true beef stew recipe that I’ve been making for years.

Gosh, I haven’t done a blog post in forever!  Decided a WUW post would be a good way to jump back in.  However, since I didn’t finish putting it together until today, what I have here is a What’s Up Wednesday post on a Friday!  Ah, well…such is life sometimes.  Here’s how things have been around here lately.

One of these days I’m going to post my monthly favorites on the first of the following month, like I originally planned.  This is obviously not the day that is happening, though, since it’s already the middle of June.  But putting my shortcomings aside, May was a great month, and it just FLEW by!

I read six books over these two months.  Five were fiction (with two of those being historical fiction), and one was a memoir.  I thought all except one were really quite good!  Here’s what I have to say about each one. Read more
