P.S. Kate snoozing, but her radar ears are always ready. 🧡💜💛
Contrary to popular belief yule is a celebration heralding the dawning of spring. It's main themes are light, warmth, and renewal. Light to mark lengthening of the days as spring approaches, warmth and renewal for the upcoming growing season. #yule #yuleseasonsswap #swaps #events #sostice
pickSuch a good read! The characters are delightful, the trio's friendship spawns plenty of laugh-out-loud moments, and the world is very fun. Maybe it's just that I love stories with holiday worlds and magic, especially magic born from joy. This will definitely be a top read of the year for me. #LGBTQIA #Holidays

Look what arrived today? So excited! Now I have to hide it, so I won't be tempted. I'm waiting on a couple of more items before my box goes out--hopefully this coming Monday. 🧡🎃🖤
@WildAlaskaBibliophile and I will be hosting a pumpkin craving contest this year! We are still working out the details, but it is never too early to start planning. We will likely have a couple different categories and winners. All are welcome; cute and creepy.
