Well, it’s been a while. This is such a busy time of year. I can’t even remember what we’ve done. I know that we went home to see my family. Denton cracked a tooth, eating something completely innocuous that turned into a nightmare. I’ll tell you all about it when I can remember my name. All of that to say, I’ve not had many moments to hide in my room with a book. Or a magazine. Or to read the back of the toilet paper plastic.
Things have slowed down, very slightly this week though. Here’s what I read when I found a minute.
FICTION
The Forever Queen by Helen Hollick
I am already halfway through this book and I am loving it. This time period (1002 – 1042) is utterly fascinating to me. I absolutely would not want to be transported back there, but it’s so, so compelling to read about. This is the best way to read history in my opinion. Take a book that has been very well researched and turn it into a captivating story and you have gold. Excellent!
COOKBOOK
Raglan Road by Kevin Dundon, Neil Cubley
You know I can’t resist a beautiful cookbook. This one is gorgeous. It has so many, many lovely recipes that I want to try. I’ll keep you posted.
Roasted Carrot and Garlic Soup. Yes, please. Doesn’t that sound divine?
MAGAZINES
My magazines. You know my love of a real magazine. These are the ones that I had on my nightstand this week.
HGTV, Food Network, O Magazine, Martha Stewart Living, Country Living, Better Homes and Gardens, and Rachel Ray Everyday are all on sale right now for $5.00! I love them.
By the way I love this purse!!
