Our Evenings: A Novel | Alan Hollinghurst

Last nights #FridayHappyReadingHour … it turned into a busy evening later , but I did relax and have a glass of vino earlier. White wine , and Pringles, and still reading Our Evenings for Bookclub. I find it‘s a book I can‘t read quickly. It‘s a lovely book so far.

Now You See Them: The Brighton Mysteries 5 | Elly Griffiths

#FridayHappyReadingHour is here in my house 🥳🥂🙌 Drinking Chateau Ste. Michelle ‘Light‘ Chardonnay & eating some Wheat Thins. I gotta say, Book 5 in the Brighton Series from Elly Griffiths might just be my favorite (tagged). I feel like she found her groove with the characters. Tag yourself with what you‘re drinking, snacking on, and reading to welcome the weekend. Cheers, friends!!🥂🍻🍾

We need a better hummingbird book- I have seen 3 varieties at our feeder, but only 1 is identified in the tagged book. Suggestions?
Enjoying Tost Sparkling Wine, thanks to @Amiable while happily reading.

dabbe @spenmoll @TheBookHippie @Aims42 ... I don't know if you've seen these, but we absolutely LOVE these hummingbird feeders. 1st: easy to clean. 2nd: the birds can actually REST while drinking. 3rd: No need to use the artificial dyed food: just a 1:4 sugar/water ratio. 4th: Our birds LOVE these feeders!

Aims42 @dabbe Oh wow! I‘ve never seen this style of hummingbird feeder, I love your reasons!! Thanks for the link!!! 3w

Amiable Which aisle in Big Y was the Töst? I went looking at the one in Old Lyme the other day but didn‘t find it. I probably walked right past it. 3w

dabbe @Aims42 Yay! Let me know if you like them! 💛🤎🧡 3w

mcctrish I‘m going to get one of this style feeder for my sister for her cottage - Happy Friday 3w

kspenmoll @Amiable I am going tomorrow so I will check. It was on a top shelf- not with soda, next isle. Will let you know. 3w

kspenmoll @dabbe I have one of these but I need a second! I did not even realize about the perch thing. The one I have is in garden. But now I want to replace the kitchen window one that is so active & we all can see them. My garden one I have to be on the porch. I do make my own sugar water, so easy! Thank you!!!! (edited) 3w

dabbe @mcctrish YAY! 💛🤎🧡 3w

dabbe @kspenmoll 💛🤎🧡 3w

janeycanuck Not a book but have you used the Merlin app? It‘s from Cornell and it‘ll identify birds by photo or sound. 2w
