Celebrating Life with Keto Buns
Food for the body is not enough. There must be food for the soul. ~ Dorothy Day By now you've probably realized the British Hubby and I enjoy eating good food.

Working from Home: Week 28
Be kind to one another. Everyone you meet is fighting a battle you know nothing about. The heat has returned along with forest fires. Smoky haze is not my favorite thing to wake up with.

The First Rhubarb
More grows in the garden than the gardener sows. We had some excitement over the weekend.

Dr. No
"Bond. James Bond." ~ Dr. No After watching Hong Kong action movies for several weeks, moving to the Bond films seemed like the natural next step.

Four Skeins Full
In the rhythm of the needles, there is music for the soul. June seemed to drag on and on forever, and now July is flying by. Or that's how it feels. I think it's due to the lack of knitting time I've had lately. I always think I can knit faster than I really can.…Read more Four Skeins Full
Book Challenge: Read and Buried
The only limits we have for tomorrow are the doubts we have today. ~ Pittacus Lore, The Power of Six Do you remember when the public library was open for business in person?
