Welcome to Litsy!

We pull this out every year 🍽️🦃🧡

Simply papercut style art paired with an extensive collection of prayers, poems and songs from various traditions on the subject of gratitude. Too religious for me personally, so more of a so-so than a pick, but there are some real gems hidden in these pages, and it seemed appropriate for today.

Happy Thanksgiving to any Littens celebrating today, and a day of joy and peace to all!

@squirrelbrain just letting you know your package arrived thank you.
Do I open it or not? I'm never too sure these days 😊

Happy Thanksgiving!!! 🦃📚

#FallIntoReading Day 25: There is a lot to be #Grateful for as can be seen in this glorious book reviewed by Fats: “This book was edited by Katherine Paterson, with illustrations by Pamela Dalton. I‘m familiar with some of the passages, poems, and praise hymns included in this collection. Today, I‘m sharing three that I‘ve not read before.” I shared one here. Check this out for more: https://wp.me/pDlzr-gAx

1. Mashed potatoes.
2. Mexican or Italian
3. Robert Brooks, Plays for the Packers
4. Intercepted by Alexa Martin

Table is set and we‘re ready to go in my corner of the world! (We‘re brown so dinner never starts before 8, not even on Thanksgiving 😂). Happy Thanksgiving to all my Littens, wherever you are! Grateful for having such a fabulous group of people to share my bookish fangirling with ♥️♥️

I‘m thankful for all of you!!!🤓

1. My daughter Vivian, for making me a first time mom at 39.
2. Coffee
3. The ability to be a SAHM
4. My home that my family feels is their sanctuary

#HelloThursday @wanderinglynn

Oh my gosh y'all! @Kayla.Adriena is the kindest, most amazing person! I would have been happy with a book and a candy bar, but she spoiled me rotten! Thankful and grateful are too weak of words to express my gratitude. (And I will treasure the very special handmade bookmark from your passed patient!) Thank you.

Beautiful lavender colors for you @sebrittain @RestlessFickleBookHoarder and @cobwebmoth who made our discussion on Daytripper rocks ❤️ thanks a lot for all your likes as well our silent followers ❤️
Stay turned for our next pick for August. It is a very interesting choice and it‘s classic. 🧐

Wow 😳 I just exceeded 70K thanks to my ecstatic and fabulous Litten friends ❤️💖🖤💜💙❣️

Thank you @Endowarrior21 for the #bottleandbookswap package, I‘ve already deemed the water bottle my favorite, and can‘t wait to start reading Pachinko! The Charleston‘s, well....🤔...in my belly.

Wait! What?

I just noticed this happened.

Wow!

Thank you!

I'm glad to be a member of such a great community. 😘😘😘

I've been thinking about a special giveaway for you, ever since I crossed the 1000-follower line. It'll happen soon.

Thanks for the postcard, @merelybookish! It is now going to do double duty as a bookmark. #litsypostcardexchange

Thank you @Velvetfur Vikki! A pie cookbook! ❤️ a secret-keeping locked journal!! And a book light 💡
A very merry Christmas indeed. Thanks 🎁

Despite not having much to go on, you did an absolutely fantastic job @Natasha.C.Barnes ! It really felt like someone who had known me for years sent me a great goody box. You probably have no idea just how perfect that tote is! A more personalized thanks to come 😊 #booktoteswap

Oh my goodness!!! I am seriously in tears @JenlovesJT47 !!!! I have had a horrible week of a major tooth infection, tooth pulling, pulling my back out and so much pain. When I opened my #booktoteswap box my week became so much brighter!! I can't wait to unwrap all my goodies and share pics later on!!! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!!! So in love with my new bag!!!!

Most things in my shop are on sale until tomorrow including new items like this beauty the colours are so vibrant and the gold looks really luxe http://etsy.me/2mCAIMW

Sandy looks pretty cute in the half marathon medal that I earned this morning!! I hope you are all enjoying your day, whether or not you are celebrating Thanksgiving. I am thankful for all of you!! Now, we‘re off to eat some turkey with the family 🍗🥧🍷

This is where I spent my Thanksgiving. I have much to be thankful for and each and every one of you Littens is on that list. You have all brought so much joy and added so many books to my TBR and I want to take this opportunity to tell you how much I value our community. Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

Thankful for all my fellow #Littens. Enjoy if you‘re celebrating and please have some pumpkin, pecan, and sweet potato pie for me. Other desserts are good too, but those are my traditional favorites 😄 Unless someone is having banana cream, in which case, heck, throw in a piece of that too. #Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving from Roger, Chico, and I! Hope you‘re having a lovely day today, and I‘m so thankful for Litsy and all of my fellow Littens. ❤️

Happy Thanksgiving to all lovely #kittens! I am grateful for all your love and support! What are your plans today? How many of you are hoping to sneak in Reading time :-)

THANK YOU for all the animal photos!!!!! There's not much I can be sure of in this world but I DO know that Litsy will always come running when I ask to see pet photos. Thank you all ? I'm feeling a lot better today minus the fact that mom has decreed today to be a "clean the house until your fingers bleed" day. Probably won't have time to hit the stacks until tonight ??

1. Pumpkin pie...it's the texture that icks me out!
2. Both!! 😊
3. Litsy is my ONLY social media platform
4. Just the one 😺
5. Sure thing!!

Eek! I hit the 10k mark! I absolutely love this community and it is the only social media I use on a daily basis. So happy to be part of this positive space. 😍😍😍

I want to say how thankful I am for books, the people who write them, the people who read them, & the community of us who take it to the next level & participate in Litsy & #readathon and all the rest.

I had a rough month at work, & needed a weekend like this past one - a chance to disconnect from the demands of work, & a chance to connect with the life-giving magic of reading & sharing.

Thanks to everyone who is along for the ride with me❤️

@Gissy thanks for the love 😍😍😍

Thanks to you both @Tiffness83 and @JoeStalksBeck for all the work you have both put into the #springcleaningreadathon. It has been a stunning success as a result of the excellent effort you have both put in and the large number of people that have contributed. Thanks once again. 👏👏👏👏🥂🤠 It is greatly appreciated by us all.

Now when do we do the next one? 😹😹😹😹

A big Litsy shout-out to @BookishMarginalia for organizing our #CupidGoesPostal gift exchange. Thank you, Gloria, for your great generosity with your time & ingenuity to make this day a big success. Individual initiative makes Litsy the joyous literary community that it is, each person's contribution making a whole that is greater than its parts. Gloria, thank you for making this Valentine's Day a bookish celebration for Littens around the world!

Finally made it to the 1,000 mark! I'm so thankful to be a part of this group of stone cold awesome book nerds! Thank you! 💙

Besides the obvious (books, Litsy, bookish friends who "get it"), today I'm #thankfulfor a mother-in-law who loves to cook so I don't have to.
Happy Thanksgiving, Littens! ?

#photoadaynov16 what I'm #thankfulfor is all of the above...and today, the absolute luck to score a last minute dinner reservation at a nice restaurant 😊and my fabulous, generous cousins who have been fun & easygoing house guests😍
