With 2022 in the past I thought it was time to start thinking about what I want to read this year and set some reading goals! How do you feel about reading goals? Personally, I used to not like them. I felt like every time I set a reading goal I couldn't live up to … Continue reading My 2023 Reading Goals & TBR List
Talking about what I read in 2022 and whether or not I achieved my 2022 reading goals. As a part of my new year's resolutions, I set a goal to read 6 books in 2022. Maybe to some this is not an ambitious reading goal, but in past years I have really struggled to prioritize … Continue reading What I Read in 2022
First in tiny flecks, then like tufts of cotton. Drifting, floating, dancing down. The world slows, becomes quiet and muffled. The dark tree branches the only contrast on a grey sky, creating a soft silhouette. So peaceful, tranquil.

This is a poem I wrote in the last two weeks, it isn't entirely right, but I couldn't help but share it anyway. Spring and summer turn to late summer. The bright and pale yellow light becomes a deep golden colour and reaches out across once green lawns. The grass now is somewhat straw-like and … Continue reading Late Summer Special Magic

A delicious and easy meal to enjoy in the warm months! Makes approximately 3 portions. I've really been enjoying "bowl-style" recipes.
