What I’m Reading: January 2020
My TBR (to be read) pile keeps growing, but I need to finish what I’ve started reading, which has proven difficult lately. Don’t get me wrong. It’s nothing to do with the books I’m reading—per se. I think I just have a small case of reader’s burnout. Ugh. Here’s what I’m reading: PRAY BIG by… Continue reading What I’m Reading: January 2020

Some people judge other people for what they wear. While I don't judge people by what they wear or read, I am a… Continue reading What are We Reading?
What I Wanted to Be When I Grew up
There were a handful of things I believed I wanted to be when I grew up. For a while, I thought I might be an artist. Then I thought, hmm, maybe a teaching or doctoring animals is my calling. The shortest-lived idea I had was a vocal artist—and for those of you who have watched… Continue reading What I Wanted to Be When I Grew up
Reading and Rereading
There is no shortage of books to read. If you read one book for every day of your life, you would come nowhere close to having read all the books there are. But it's fun to try! That's not to say you're going to enjoy them all, obvs. Everyone has their own preferences when it… Continue reading Reading and Rereading
From Book to Cook – Episode 1
Earlier this week, I filmed the first episode of my new cooking show, From Book to Cook (title credit goes to Mimi, fellow author and a historical food enthusiast.) I made a spiced honey cake from the Unofficial Poldark Cookbook by Tricia Cohen and Larry Edwards. Have a look, but forgive the shaky camera and… Continue reading From Book to Cook – Episode 1
