Last weekend, went to grab donuts and coffee and couldn't resist taking a photo of the clouds. Aren't they something? If you're curious as to why the road looks rough and uneven, it's because they are repaving it. May usually feels like a forever month because of that extra day, but it pretty much flew...

I was surprised to see the magnolia in the backyard bloom. A few years back only a few flowers bloomed, so I thought this bush was on its way out, but I'm so glad it's still thriving. I finished Camp Nano and hit over 100K words so I'm really happy that I was able to... Continue Reading →
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0DczGDUDkFU I'm so excited to finally have this beautiful leather notebook cover in my hands! I ordered it early in February, and because this is a small business owned by Monique (aka Lady Falcon) and Martijn in the Netherlands, I expected some wait time. The company is called Falcon Travelers and they make leather traveler's... Continue Reading →
I don't normally use the personal size leather covers because I just find that they don't have enough room to write, but the Lancaster Traveler's Notebook cover was so tempting that I had to get one. I already have a personal cover for my address book, etc., but went ahead and switched the notebooks out... Continue Reading →

Sugarplum B6 January (this is the name of the leather) A5: I've... Continue Reading →
The movie "Free Guy" came out last year and at first I didn't have any interest in watching it because I'm not a fan of Ryan Reynolds, but I ended up watching it and it's become one of my favorite movies. It is soooo good! I loved the storyline and all the great actors. Even... Continue Reading →
Happy St. Patrick's Day! I don't always celebrate this day but once in awhile I'm reminded that I should. I've only gone to one St. Patrick's Day parade and that was almost two decades ago. Today's a snowy, cold day so we're staying warm inside. A few months back, I suddenly had this urge for... Continue Reading →
By now you're probably super tired of seeing all these beautiful full-grain leather notebook covers. I'm obsessed by them and could never get tired of looking at them and touching them, so just bare with me. I'm still reading books. In fact, I'm reading two books right now: Bleak House by Charles Dickens and an... Continue Reading →
Daughter had a snow day today, which means no school. She's both excited and bummed. Excited because she can relax and not worry about doing homework, and bummed because she spent an hour yesterday making Crepes for French class and now she'll have to eat them by herself (and with me of course) or throw...
