Hello, my lovelies. Lord. It’s Monday, which makes this a weird day for a Sunday Post. But I spent the evening making cookies, like I do, and struggling with a new royal icing recipe, which never did turn out the way Alton Brown said it would, and when I sat down to write, I literally… Continue reading Sunday Post: March 7, 2022

Hello, my lovelies. Today was a game day here en casa, with our friend Lowell coming over for Spaghetti and Clank!. I made the sauce, Lowell made bread and dessert, and the three of us each won one game, which was pretty satisfying. I decided this morning that, in honor of the very lovely homemade… Continue reading Sunday Post: February 27, 2022

Hello, my lovelies. Weird week. The lovely roomie was on a cruise with her dad this week, leaving me and the babies to fend for ourselves. I loved the quiet and the solitude. I didn’t love the hours. Turns out that animals need to eat VERY early in the morning! TLR leaves for work around… Continue reading Sunday Post: February 20, 2022

Hello, my lovelies. Sitting here watching the end of the Super Bowl with three sleeping animals. My team didn’t make it, but I am nominally rooting for the Rams, who are ahead, but who may have left the Bengals too much time. Ah, well. I grew up in a football family. My Dad coached, both… Continue reading Sunday Post: February 13, 2022

Hello, my lovelies. Not a whole lot happened this week…the lovely roomie and I had some serious baking plans which were derailed when her dad ended up in the hospital with a fairly serious MRSA infection. He’s mending, and is now resting comfortably at home, but the whole week just felt off, as she ran… Continue reading Sunday Post: February 6, 2022

Hello, my lovelies. Up way too early on a Sunday morning, watching the finals of the Australian Open. Rafa is the only person who can get me to set a 3 am alarm, but I don’t think that this one is going to go the way we want. I guess we will see once it… Continue reading Sunday Post: January 30, 2022

Hello, my lovelies. Still not feeling 100%. I did do an e-visit with Kaiser, who recommended a video visit, which I scheduled—but Kaiser’s video calls were failing the day of the visit. And then, I was feeling, you know, somewhat better, so I never rescheduled. But now, I’m still not 100% after…what has it been?… Continue reading Sunday Post: January 23, 2022

Hello, my lovelies. It’s Sunday evening, much much later than I usually write these. Somehow the day got away from me, lost in a haze of books and Bookclubs and cookie baking. And dreadfully disappointing football. The week seemed to go by rather quickly, which is weird since I don’t really remember doing much. I… Continue reading Sunday Post: January 16, 2022

Hello, my lovelies. This week, the 52 homestead was transformed into a daggone winter wonderland! It’s been three years since we had any appreciable snow here in the DMV—at most, we have gotten a dusting here and there. But this week, we got close to a foot, between two different storms. I rather enjoyed it.… Continue reading Sunday Post: January 9, 2022

Hello, my lovelies. First off, happy New Year! I could not have imagined five months ago when I started this little project that I could find so many people to hang out with, talk about books with, obsess about books with. Blogging is a ton of work, but it’s more rewarding than I expected, and… Continue reading Sunday Post: January 2, 2022
