Do you ever have those weeks where you are completely over scheduled? That has been my week and weekend. Most of it has been super fun, but some of it has been super tedious and stressful. I also started working on my seed plantings for the garden - I am really looking forward to putting it all in the ground and watching things grow.
I went with a few friends to Ft. Wayne in Detroit - I had never been there and always wanted to go. From the area that it is in, you would never know there is such beauty on the other side of the fence. And then a few of my carrot shoots growing, that I planted at the beginning of the month.
Read Last Week:
Watership Down by Richard Adams: My all time favorite book. I have been leisurely reading this book, savoring it. You will never look at rabbits the same way again after reading this book.
Hell-Bent by Benjamin Lorr: Wow, amazing look at the harder side of yoga.
Reading This Week:
I probably won't get to them all, but what the heck right? I might as well try!
The Night is Watching by Heather Graham: I never got to this last week, so here it is again.
From the Kitchen of Half Truth by Maria Goodin: I received this from NetGalley, I can't wait to read it!
Yoga Bitch by Suzanne Morrison: I think I am on a yoga book kick.
The Homemade Pantry by Alana Chernila: I have been waiting for this book from the library forever! If I like it, I am going to buy it for sure. If I have time, I plan on making a few things from it this week.
The Homemade Pantry looks interesting but I don't think I'd want to make my own Pop-tarts for breakfast! I like them because they are quick foods for mornings when I don't have a lot of time.
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a more relaxed week this week. I didn't realize there was also a Fort Wayne in Detroit. I was just in the city of Fort Wayne, Indiana this past weekend where my sister lives :)
I know, pop tarts are the best! I love the brown sugar pop-tarts. I probably will not be making those either - some stuff you just have to have the real thing.
DeleteInteresting coincidence! My mom has been to the one in Indiana too. :)
I did not know about Ft. Wayne in Detroit either. Glad to learn something new about my State. I am behind with Heather Graham's books. Have a great week of reading.
ReplyDeleteI don't know if you are familiar with Detroit, but Fort Wayne is along the river, south of city center and the bridge. :)
DeleteI'd like to see your thoughts on The Homemade Pantry.
ReplyDeleteIt has a wide variety of recipes! I think I am going to start with their sandwich bread one.
DeleteI'm very intrigued by the two yoga books - I'm going to have to look into them!
ReplyDeleteHave a great week!

Hell-Bent was eye opening! So good!
DeleteYoga Bitch, ha ha, love that title! You have been a very busy bee haven't you?
ReplyDeleteSo I ordered Watership Down. Guess what? I ordered TALES from Watership Down. Wahhh. I have to re-order. Hmph!
Have a great week Erin!
Oh no! Tales from Watership Down is good, but not as good as Watership. :) Frustrating!
DeleteI know, that title cracked me up too! I like how the cover art is a woman smoking while doing yoga too. I think that book is going to be fun.
Loved Watership Down. I agree, after reading this book it's hard to look at rabbits the same way again.
ReplyDeleteYou're making me think I should give Watership Down another try. I didn't really like it when I read it, but that was a long time ago.
ReplyDeleteI just found out that my town has a paint thing like the one you posted about a few weeks ago! I was so excited! I am not at all artistic, but I think I'll have to try it out. It looked like you had a lot of fun! Enjoy your week!
I love it! It is entirely from the POV of rabbits, so that might be off putting for some readers but it doesn't bother me. :)
DeleteYou should totally go!!! It was such a good time! I am not by any stretch a good drawer or painter, but the teachers make it easy. :)
I didn't realize there was such a thing as competitive yoga. I'm off to read your review of that book. The cover looks painful, I can only imagine what's inside the pages.

Omg it was crazy! The book was very good, I found it super interesting and informative.
