My Fourth of July | Jerry Spinelli

1. Waterfall in my favorite spot in Botanic Garden.
2. Just back from Kopp‘s in Milwaukee. Amazing birthday cake ice cream flavor with actual pieces of yellow cake in it!
3. We think we finally got rid of the family of raccoons that were living under the deck.
4. Husband had two biopsies of strange growths on his skin, turned out ok.
5. Planning annual trip to Seattle to visit my son, going overnite to Leavenworth.

AmyG Glad your husband is ok. 😬 And racoons….we had a mom give birth in our attic. Be happy they are under the deck. And gone! 3d
peaKnit Yay! We are headed to Brookfield shortly for the same! Glad your husband‘s biopsies were okay! 3d
Lesliereadsalot @AmyG Wow! In the attic? Sounds like a nightmare. Thanks for your kind thought. 3d

Lesliereadsalot @peaKnit two thanks: one for the kind thought and one for the ice cream recommendation. Enjoy your big scoop! PS I would‘ve had a cone but I had a hamburger too. 3d
peaKnit Oh yum, their hamburgers are so good but also super sized! Definitely might get in the way of dessert :) 3d
MemoirsForMe Happy to hear your husband is well! I used to live in Milwaukee. How did I not know about Kopp‘s? 😋 2d

I think I finally have my July #bookspin list completed. I can‘t wait to see the bingo board. I‘m hoping to have extra reading time with a 3-day weekend and at least one day off work for a doctor appointment, because there‘s a lot on here that I really want to read.

This summer is absolute chaos in my household. Three kids moving in August (one across town into his first house, one to NYC post college graduation, & one into a college dorm), college orientation, dorm shopping, and helping out with dog sitting because my daughter is triple booked. Here‘s hoping I have time to actually read and that my reading is able to help me through! 😵‍💫🫠❤️📚

#bookspin @TheAromaofBooks

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! Although it sounds like you'll be lucky to find time to breathe, much less read! 😂 1w
Elizabeth2 @TheAromaofBooks literally taking it one day at a time at this point. If I think too far ahead I get stressed out and things are constantly changing so what‘s the point?! 😂 1w

Repost for @TheAromaofBooks

Oh my gosh, there is only one week of June left! Which means we are only one week away from being HALF WAY THROUGH 2025! If you‘re planning to spin in July it‘s time to start thinking about your list. See @TheAromaofBooks ‘s original post for details about the end of year giveaway.

TheAromaofBooks Thank you for the repost!! 1w

Oh my gosh, there is only one week of June left!!! Which means we are only a week away from being HALF WAY THROUGH 2025!!! I'm still trying to wrap my head around the fact that years begin with “20“ so we can all see how well I'm doing with the passage of time 😂 Anyway, I hope everyone is having a lovely summer so far (or a cozy winter, depending on where you are!). We are in the midst of an intense heat wave, unusual for this early in the ⬇

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) season, and I am working on not being a whiner 😆 My husband has been working on building bookshelves for the new library!!! And I am hoping to spend some time getting the nonfiction section sorted out today!!! I'm SO excited!!

Anyway, if you're planning to spin along with me in July, it's time to start thinking about your lists!! I'm looking forward to seeing what everyone is reading (or avoiding 😂)

Also, just a reminder about the⬇
2w
TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) end-of-the-year giveaway!! Remember that every spin completed (either finished or removed from your TBR as a gave-it-a-try-bail) counts as an entry for the giveaway IF you complete the giveaway form!! You can fill it out as you go throughout the year OR track your spins some other way and enter them all at once at the end of the year. I give 5 random people a book from their TBR, open internationally. The spins can be completed ANY time ⬇ 2w
TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) in 2025 (if you finish February's book in May, that counts!) Link to the form - which of course has way more explanations because I LOVE over-explaining things!! - https://forms.gle/2TgEz5N3NLq3GyV56 And also the link on my blog that explains the overall challenge in even more excruciating detail!! 😁 https://thearomaofbooks.wordpress.com/bookspin-bookspinbingo-litsy-challenge/

Thanks for spinning with me - can't wait to see the lists!!

Bookwormjillk Gah! I need to get started on my bookspin stat! 2w
DieAReader I‘ve decided not to follow any more lists this year. I‘m too 🐿️🧠. I‘m just considering all my physical books to be #BookSpin books & all my digital are #ReadYourKobo books. 2w
LeeRHarry Next up is my bookspin book - thank goodness is a short one! 2w
Librarybelle It is hard to believe it is nearly July! Must think of my list! 2w
DGRachel It‘s crazy to me how fast time goes while also feeling like it‘s not moving at all, depending on the day. As I anticipated, I‘ve read little from my June list and we‘ll see how well I anticipate my July moods when I put together that list this week. 🙃 2w
PuddleJumper Nope. Nope. It is not July or summer, it's February! 🤪 2w

"It also calls for coconut milk, but I didn't have that, so I improvised and substituted Pina colada mix."

I live in a small (tiny) town, so I do my fair share of substituting when it comes to recipes, but I don't think I'd ever go that route lol

Pickpick

This book brought humor to the journey of the Declaration of independence. It is very informative about how the document was treated and how it has been preserved
