I ate this Lotus Biscoff Cheesecake without the cheese 🧀🧀 while I listened to Matt Haig. I decided to use Greek yogurt which I absolutely love, in place of cheese in this recipe because the price of cheese is prohibitive in my corner of the world. It turned out really divine 😋😋😋

Habit tracking also keeps you honest. Most of us have a distorted view of our own behavior. We think we act better than we do. Measurement offers one way to overcome our blindness to our own behavior and notice what‘s really going on each day. One glance at the paper clips in the container and you immediately know how much work you have (or haven‘t) been putting in. When the evidence is right in front of you, you‘re less likely to lie to yourself

Which is your favorite bookish luxury? Mine is reading a sequel right after a cliffhanger 😊

KateReadsYA All of them for me. But to be realistic, I like a read all day kinda luxury. 4mo

I knew that was ridiculous, that abusers often went for the trophy girlfriend, and then ground them down. Perhaps half the triumph was in slashing down the tallest poppy.

Amber Parrish's plan to check out the Delacroix painting of Liberty Leading the People at the Louvre in Paris struck me as being appropriate and felicitous given her new found independence and wealth.

Camino Ghosts: A Novel | John Grisham
post image

Been reading the Camino series back to back and having a good time while at it. However the segue into the capture of slaves from Africa, the conditions they suffered, their jouney to Savannah was quite traumatic to read and reminds me too much of Roots by Alex Haley.

I listened to the tagged book while I made some mango coulis and I love how it turned out.

Though I'm a bit worried for Frankie since she returned from 'Nam. She's not doing well in the real world and I fear she'll return to the war only to die. Fingers crossed

I love both tea and coffee but I'll choose coffee over tea any day. I prefer audio books only when I have to use my hands to do other things like baking, doing dishes... Yeah that's about it.

Almost through with the Violin Conspiracy and I feel like it shouldn't end. I wonder if there will be a movie based on it.

Sometimes when I can't get enough of the book I'm reading and I've become so attached to the book, I do all other things while reading. I eat while reading, I play the book while cooking, doing dishes , baking, and even taking a shower🚿
Who else does this?

At the end of the thirty-month war Biafra was a vast smoldering rubble. The head count at the end of the war was perhaps three million dead, which was approximately 20 percent of the entire population.

I've wanted to read There Was A Country for the longest of times but I'm really glad to be reading it now. From what I've read so far it looks like not much has changed since the last 60 years particularly with respect to our politics. 🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬
