WEEKEND READS

Books, articles, and stories are a huge part of my life. They are universes in themselves, loaded with philosophy, history, human experiences, and human imagination. Here, I share literature and reading experiences that have touched me in some way.

A revamp of my “Book Club” series, Weekend Reads is not limited to books. It also includes short stories, essays, articles, library and book store experiences, and reviews.

I finally visited my local library!
DIY: Fabric Bookmark
Weekend Reads: The Outsiders and AI Doom Scrolls
Weekend Reads: Civil Disobedience
Book Club: The Art of Cookery Made Plain and Easy by Hannah Glasse
Book Club: Do you remember your favorite book from childhood? The Dear America Series lives rent free in my heart
What Book Are You Reading Right Now? The Hazel Wood
Book Club: The Victory Binding of the American Woman’s Cook Book, Wartime Edition

I went overboard with the edible glitter, but I wanted to share my holiday cheesecake! It’s iced in whipped cream and decorated with leftover Swiss Meringue Buttercream from another cake. The crust is cherry pecan shortbread. Merry Christmas, Everyone!🎄 🎉🎂🎅🏾
“America ships tons of sugar cookies to Denmark and Denmark ships tons of sugar cookies to America. Wouldn’t it be more efficient just to swap recipes?” ― Michael Pollan
Just a recap of some of the things I’ve sewn and knitted this year. Pretty proud of my slow fashion endeavors! Happy New Year! 🎆
I’m being a little too dramatic, but how else are you supposed to act after sewing a pirate shirt? 🫣😉
