My #ChatterDay Saturday, back at my usual coffeeshop haunt. Dirty chai latte, Kalua pork breakfast wrap & catching up on opening #SpringCardSwap cards & P&P for #JaneAustenThenAndNow

I haven‘t been good with 2 chapters a day & been mostly reading iin ebook spurts so I decided to pull out a fun illustrated edition for today. Special shout out to my pretty “J. Austen” bookmark that I picked up at a local bookstore last weekend. It matches! 💙

DebinHawaii P.S. Happy Saturday! If my morning had a soundtrack this song currently playing is on it. https://open.spotify.com/track/6kXkbhwZcz6d7h04WsYswt?si=Dn9tMkjtQjyw5_8HwD8sdA 2d

CrowCAH What edition is that? It doesn‘t look to be one in my collection… 2d

DebinHawaii @CrowCAH What?! How is it not in your collection?! It was published in 2017 by Rockport Publishing) I think I bought it at Barnes & Noble about that time. ISBN is 9781631593710 I‘m seeing some on Thrift Books, Abe & E-bay. 2d
CrowCAH @DebinHawaii yup, it‘s true. I just checked and this version is not in the PnPCovers collection! It‘s amazing how many different cover editions are out there. I know the collection will be kept going with all the new publications! I‘ve had my eyes on the Folio and Eaton Press versions too; they haven‘t been added either. Thanks for the ISBN; I‘ll see if I can get a copy! 2d

A crazy week for work with 2 Hilo trips & all day meetings & when I got home last night I just crashed so, it‘s a Saturday #5JoysFriday list for me.

1. Good flights, a couple of upgrades, & seat-mate readers in the wild bring me joy. I love readers! 📚💛

2. Last Saturday on my field trip, a favorite Indian restaurant that was closed was reopening. 🎉 I got takeout & asked if they had their mango lassi & she gave me a free one & a big glass ⬇️

DebinHawaii … of ice water while I waited “because it‘s so warm & you came by on our first day back.” Delicious mango lassis & great customer service bring me joy! 😋

3. Not going to lie, Wendy‘s vanilla Thin Mint Frosty gave my mouth joy.😋

4. I did a Succession Planning session at yesterday‘s meeting & it went really well which gives me joy for the work put in on it. ⬇️

DebinHawaii … Our CEO (my boss) wants the slides in my board meeting presentation & for an industry talk he‘s giving. 💪🏼

5. Lots of #SpringCardSwap cards to open this weekend are joyful. Thanks @TheBookHippie for hosting! 🌱💚

Just an FYI for my fellow spring card swappers. Mine just went out in the mail today. Apologies- My health held me back but my husband got me to the post office today. Yay! In early April my family visits Wicked Tulips- fields & fields of countless varieties of tulips for the picking. A wonderful way to celebrate & welcome in the spring season. I can‘t wait! #springcardswap

BooksandCoffee4Me Hi! Being new, I‘m curious- what is the card swap? 2d
Chrissyreadit @BooksandCoffee4Me Welcome to Litsy! Are you following @LitsyEvents ? @TheBookHippie coordinates card swaps for the seasons- and often people include a poem, stickers sometimes bookmarks- it‘s a fun way to connect with each other. Keep an eye out for the next one. 2d
Chrissyreadit @TheBookHippie I could have sworn it did tbh and do not know why it‘s not on my shelf- but I could have sworn I opened it- then thought maybe i was wrong…. I will let you know if/when I figure out the mystery! 2d
TheBookHippie @Chrissyreadit 🤣♥️🤷🏻‍♀️😘 2d
Avanders I like all those light blue and green books gathered together there .. very Spring! 🌸🌼🌺 1d

Today was long & jam-packed but I‘m finally done working & ready to share my #5JoysFriday list for this week!💛

1. This morning as I was getting ready there was a rather loud “lecture” going on between 2 birds outside my bathroom window. Identifying a Red-Vented Bulbul as the lecturer with the Merlin app gave me joy!🐦

Favorite foods give me joy! 😋
2. I ate 2 poke bowls this week &
3. had grilled smoked pork belly at a brunch with vendors.
⬇️

DebinHawaii … 4. My library system gives me joy! 🌺❤️I went after work last night & picked up holds for next month that I‘m excited to read. I love that I can transfer books in from any library in the state fairly quickly.

5. Litsy & card swaps give me great joy! I‘m getting #SpringCardSwap cards in & I got mine out (finally) this week! 🌿💌🌷

Thanks to all who joined in! I‘ll be around to look at your posts over the weekend.🤗
