Welcome to Litsy!

Pies and books and books and pie. Just finished the ebook+audiobook of White Noise for a Beer & Books discussion opportunity and now starting the hot book by Moore, an author I have admired for years.

I made this Tomato Basil Pie as a side for a dinner party and also the Lemon 🍋Meringue for dessert and neighbor-thanking last weekend.

Starting the actual novel this time. 🤣
Maybe I should have brushed Esther before having her model with book… #WW1lit #Classic #CC50_part2 #ClassicsClub #DogsofLitsy #EstherFest #WiaN2023 QXZ category

“Yea, many there be that have run out of their wits for women, and become servants for their sakes. Many also have perished, have erred, and sinned, for women. . . O ye men, how can it be but women should be strong, seeing they do thus?” —Esdras

Finally starting this for #BookSpinBingo (last month and this month!) #Classic #CC50_part2 #TableRockMO

This was just gosh darn adorable!! The audio (Nadia May) is something special. HIGHLY recommended! It‘s got books, it‘s got love, it‘s got lots of book love ❤️ #Classic #CC50_part2 #ClassicsClub #audiobook

Other pics from the wild weather we have had the past few days: 80 degrees + thunderstorms to snow this morning.

So very much to think about!! Wow. Packs a punch and not only because it is about grief but about personality, society expectations (and burdens) and perception. Would be a terrific book club book IF you have a trusting group to share personal honest discussions. (I do not 😕)
Sharing the bloom of my Christmas Cactus and another #BookSpinBingo 4th row. Should still get 2 more! 🎉
Who‘s read this Welty? What did you think?

What‘s better than receiving a postcard out of the blue and finding the referenced quote a few days later? Not much, a few things, maybe; these are the simple joys that delight. The universe reinforcing my reading choices! #CC50 #Cc50_part2

I have to honest, I seriously had a moment of cold emptiness in my gut when I realized that I wasn‘t sure what my next book was to be. 😱 Then I remembered I have my Bingo card to guide me. I am choosing the novella* by Welty and not just because it sits ready nor because it is short, and a classic, and it won the Pulitzer AND fave author A.Patchett cites her as an influence. But because ALL of this together. #CC50_part2 #ClassicsClub
